DARK CIRCLES
Why You Look Tired Even After Rest
Why do you always look exhausted—even after a full night’s sleep? If dark circles and puffy under-eye bags make you look permanently tired, it’s not in your head. The skin around the eyes is extremely thin, and as collagen reduces, underlying blood vessels show through as dark shadows.
In some people, excess pigmentation causes darkness. In others, shifting fat pads create a hollow, sunken appearance. Often, it’s a combination of both.
Why Dark Circles Happen
Our Dark Circle Treatment Approach
Lifestyle Optimization: Better sleep habits, stress reduction, quitting smoking, and limiting alcohol can significantly reduce puffiness and darkness.
Medical-Grade Topicals: Targeted eye treatments with Vitamin C (brightening), Caffeine (de-puffing), Retinol (skin thickening), and Hyaluronic Acid (plumping) are prescribed— not over-the-counter gimmicks.
Injectables: Dermal fillers restore lost volume in hollow areas, instantly reducing shadowing. BOTOX relaxes muscles that deepen wrinkles and pull the under-eye area downward.
Treatment is always personalized. Pigmentation requires brightening agents and strict sun protection. Hollows respond best to fillers. Puffiness improves with lifestyle changes and caffeine-based therapies. Many patients need a combination approach.
The bottom line: you don’t have to look tired forever. Once we identify what’s causing *your* dark circles, we create a plan that actually works.
