Dark circles are a discoloured or shadowy area that appears under the eyes. It differs from swelling or redness due to infection or bruising from an injury. Dark circles under the lower eyelid are very common and may appear due to genetics, allergies, or other reasons. And it may appear as shades of brown, black, blue, or purple.
What causes dark circles?
Dark circles under the eyes commonly occur due to volume loss in the "tear trough" caused by fat depletion. While ageing is a typical cause, younger individuals can have this condition due to genetic factors.
Dr. Shikha Aggarwal is an expert dermatologist, and in this blog, she has shared about dermal filler, which is known as the best dark circle treatment in Ludhiana. The dark colour results from tissue loss, which exposes the underlying deep purple muscle layer, giving it a dark appearance. This can lead to the appearance of bags as the lack of support causes the tissue structure under the eye to bulge. A shadow formed due to losing fat and bagging intensifies the darkness.
Some other factors can cause the dark circle, such as:
- Age
- Allergies
- Fatigue
- Eyestrain
- Dehydration
- Genetics
- Sun overexposure
- Lifestyle factors.
What are dermal fillers, and do they help manage under-eye dark circles?
As the name suggests, dermal fillers are gel-like substances made of hyaluronic acid that are injected into the skin. Over the last few years, it has been seen that women and many men have been turning to dermatologists to get hyaluronic acid filler injected under their eyes. Dermal fillers are typically composed of hyaluronic acid, and they can reduce the shadowing effects and improve the overall appearance of dark circles. They help one achieve a more refreshed and rejuvenated look.
How can one get rid of dark circles using dermal fillers?
Naturally, one has fat under the eyes and in the cheek; this junction is smooth and contiguous. And as one ages, losing definition and plumpness in the face is common. Here's how dermal filler can help:
Simple processes happening below the skin cause it to cease, producing fewer proteins than one used to procedure when they are younger. With this lack of components, such as hyaluronic acid, some restore their skin to its previous look through Dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar found in the human body. The role of hyaluronic acid in the skin is to deliver nutrients, hydrate the skin by holding water, and act as a resilient filler. As the dermal filler is injected beneath the skin, it attracts and binds the water molecules and helps fill the under-eye hollowness.
