01
What it is
Dark circles refer to visible darkness beneath or around the eyes. They may appear brown, grey, bluish or shadowed depending on the underlying cause and individual skin characteristics.
Under-eye darkness is not always caused by pigmentation alone. Thin skin, visible blood vessels, hollowness, facial structure, rubbing, allergies and lifestyle factors may also contribute.
02
What may be causing your dark circles?
Under-eye darkness can develop for different reasons. Identifying the dominant cause helps determine which treatment approach may be most appropriate.
Excess melanin can create brown or darker discolouration beneath the eyes.
Naturally thin skin can make underlying vessels more visible, creating a bluish or darker appearance.
Loss of volume or facial anatomy can create shadows that make the under-eye area appear darker.
Under-eye darkness may run in families and can become noticeable from a younger age.
UV exposure may stimulate pigmentation and make existing under-eye darkness more noticeable.
Repeated friction or irritation may contribute to inflammation and pigmentation around the eyes.
Who it’s not for
Certain situations may require treatment to be delayed, modified or medically reviewed first.
Active eye or skin infection around the treatment area
Significant irritation, dermatitis, open wounds or inflamed under-eye skin
Recent aggressive peel, laser or resurfacing treatment around the eyes
Pregnancy or breastfeeding when a proposed procedure or product may not be suitable
Unexplained swelling, sudden discolouration or other symptoms that require medical evaluation first
03
What to expect
Under-eye assessment
Your dermatologist evaluates pigmentation, skin thickness, hollowness, vascular visibility and other factors contributing to darkness.
Cause-based treatment plan
Treatment is selected according to whether the concern is primarily pigmentation, skin quality, shadowing or a combination of factors.
Progress & maintenance
Under-eye improvement can be gradual. Follow-up, appropriate skin care and sun protection may help support and maintain results.
04
Physician note
Dark circles are not one single condition. What looks like pigmentation may actually be caused by thin skin, visible vessels, hollowness or shadows.
At Averah, we first identify what is creating the darkness before choosing a treatment approach.
The goal is to improve the appearance of the under-eye area while maintaining natural-looking results and realistic expectations.

CLINICAL UNDER-EYE CARE
Effective care starts with finding the cause.
Under-eye darkness can look similar even when the underlying causes are very different. Treating pigmentation alone may not address darkness caused primarily by hollowness, thin skin or shadows.
At Averah, we assess the colour, skin quality, anatomy and overall under-eye appearance before recommending treatment.
This cause-based approach allows treatment to focus on the factors that matter most while protecting the delicate under-eye area.
