What Are Dark Circles Under the Eyes?
Dark circles under the eyes are a common aesthetic concern that can cause a tired, aged, or stressed appearance. They appear as darkened or shadowy areas beneath the lower eyelids and can vary in colour from blue, purple, brown, or black, depending on skin type and underlying causes.
There are three main types of dark circles:
Pigmentation Related Dark Circles
Caused by excess melanin production, these dark circles appear as brown or darker discolouration beneath the eyes. They are more common in individuals with darker skin tones or a genetic tendency towards pigmentation. Sun exposure and ageing can make them more noticeable over time.
Hollow Under Eyes
As we age, collagen, fat, and bone support gradually decrease, creating hollows beneath the eyes known as tear troughs. These hollows cast shadows that can resemble dark circles and contribute to a tired appearance.
Vascular Related Dark Circles
Poor circulation, thinning skin, and visible blood vessels can create a blue, purple, or reddish tint beneath the eyes. These dark circles often become more pronounced with fatigue, dehydration, allergies, or stress.
Dark circles may also develop as a result of genetics, lifestyle factors, lack of sleep, or natural ageing changes, and many patients experience a combination of several underlying causes.
Regardless of the cause, dark circles can affect self confidence and make the face appear older and fatigued. At It's Me & You Clinic, we provide expert led treatments designed to identify the root cause of dark circles and restore a brighter, fresher, and more rejuvenated appearance.
Causes of Dark Circles Under the Eyes
Dark circles can develop due to various factors, ranging from genetics to lifestyle choices. Understanding the cause is essential for selecting the most effective treatment.
Genetics and Hereditary Factors
Some individuals are naturally predisposed to dark circles due to genetics. If your family members have under-eye pigmentation or hollow tear troughs, you may be more likely to experience them as well.
Ageing and Collagen Loss
As we age, collagen and fat levels decrease, leading to thinner skin and hollow under-eyes. This creates shadowing and an aged appearance, making dark circles more prominent.
Hyperpigmentation Due to Sun Exposure & Lifestyle
Excess sun exposure can trigger melanin production, causing under-eye pigmentation. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as rubbing the eyes, allergies, or eczema can worsen pigmentation over time.
Poor Circulation & Vascular Dark Circles
Whenblood vessels beneath the thin under-eye skin become visible, they create a blue, purple, or red tint. This can be due to poor circulation, fatigue, or nasal congestion, which restricts oxygen flow to the delicate under-eye area.
Lifestyle Factors
• Lack of sleep and chronic stress can cause the skin to appear dull and pale, making dark circles more visible.
• Dehydration leads to sunken under-eyes, enhancing shadowing.
• Smoking and alcohol consumption accelerate collagen breakdown, making dark circles worse over time.
