Dark Eye Circles Treatment

People of all ages can develop dark eye circles. Some physical conditions, diseases and lifestyle habits can cause dark circles around or underneath the eyes. It can be as simple as not getting enough sleep, or you could simply be showing signs of aging skin and depleted collagen. Spectrum Dermatology of Atlanta provides dark eye circles treatment.

Why Do I Have Dark Eye Circles?

If you notice dark eye circles have formed, you should visit your doctor for an evaluation. Some treatable health issues can be the cause, and with proper medical treatment, the dark circles will resolve on their own in a brief time. Sometimes you may need help eliminating dark eye circles even after resolving the health issue.

Many people notice dark eye circles as a consequence of aging. The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the body and can easily deteriorate with aging and the resulting loss of collagen. This thinner skin is actually revealing the eye socket bone underneath and the hollow shadow under the eye, creating the dark patch that is so noticeable.

Professional Treatment for Dark Eye Circles

Professional treatment for dark eye circles often begins with ointments for the skin that improve texture and tone. Some contain Retin-A that chemically improves skin pigmentation and boosts collagen production. Our board certified dermatologists can also recommend hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers that add volume and promote moisture retention to help undereye bags and dark circles.

We can also help you with a beauty regimen to improve your skin and look younger and more vibrant. Contact Spectrum Dermatology of Atlanta today for a consultation.
