How to treat dark circles under the eyes

Now that you know the causes of deep circles under the eyes, see what are the most recommended treatment tips by Dr. Roseli Andrade.

1. Filling with hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a compound widely used in cosmetic dermatology to fill wrinkles and furrows. As in deep dark circles there is a decrease in tissue between the bone edge and the skin, causing a step, a filler is placed exactly on the step line.

The procedure favors an aesthetic result, more harmonic and also improves the refraction of light when it hits the region. The presence of hyaluronic acid increases the distance between the skin and blood vessels, leaving the region a little lighter, as the skin will no longer be so transparent. This also prevents the appearance of blood vessels.

2. Treatment with creams

According to Dr. Roseli, the creams do not change the depth of dark circles. They only improve the skin’s vigor, shine and help in cases of dark circles with congestion of the vessels, where they appear reddish or purplish. That is, in cases of vascular dark circles or bags where there is fluid retention. Only in these cases can some creams help and slow the progression of dark circles.

3. Home treatment

There is no home treatment for dark circles under the eyes. The most effective procedure is filling with hyaluronic acid.

4. Laser treatment

According to the doctor. Roseli, laser treatment does not work for dark circles with depth, but it can be used for vascular dark circles and for dark circles that occur by darkening the skin, in order to lighten the skin superficially.

5. Microneedling

Microneedling works very well to change fine lines, wrinkles, skin viscosity and, in some cases, improves the graying of the local skin. For the treatment of deep dark circles, the best technique to be used is still filling.
