REGISTER FOR A VIP CONSULTATION WITH THE DOCTOR “Although I am only in my early 30s, my eyes have shown signs of aging, with dark circles and slight hollowness. In my case, the doctor advised me to get injections to reduce dark circles around the eyes and to rejuvenate the facial skin. I feel very reassured when undergoing treatment at Dr. Eye because Dr. Eye has all the legal bases and specializes in anti-aging for the eye area, and the doctor performs the injections very gently. The doctor shared from the beginning that there is a possibility of bruising when injecting the eye area; however, thanks to their high skill, my eye area did not bruise at all after the injection. I am completely satisfied with the results and the treatment experience here.”

How to treat dark circles under the eyes
Currently, there are quite a few methods to remove dark circles under the eyes. Among them, there is a simple home remedy for dark circles, but there are also in-depth therapies that need to be applied at reputable beauty establishments.
Depending on the condition and the cause of dark circles, women can choose an appropriate remedy.
Treatment for pigment-type dark circles
There are many causes of pigmentation, causing the skin under the eyes to become discolored (usually brown), the most common being excessive exposure to sunlight.
To remedy this situation, women can refer to the following 3 methods:
- Using skin-lightening eye creams: Products containing active ingredients like Tretinoin, Hydroquinone, Kojic acid, etc., help treat pigmentation and whiten the skin around the eyes. These products are very easy to find at affordable prices; however, it is necessary to choose products with clear origins. Additionally, it should be noted that these products may yield slow results, thus requiring women to be patient and use them long-term.
- Chemical peels: This method involves biological skin renewal using chemical agents that act on the skin around the eyes to help fade dark circles, brighten, and rejuvenate the skin. However, women should not self-peel at home but should visit a specialist for examination and follow the doctor’s instructions to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety.
- Using energy devices: This is a modern cosmetic method that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) or laser technology to break down Melanin pigments, stimulating collagen production to rejuvenate the skin structure around the eyes. These methods are usually treated in courses and performed by skilled doctors. At the same time, women should also know how to take care of their skin at home for better recovery after treatment.
Treatment for vascular-type dark circles
Due to allergies, dermatitis, the habit of rubbing or scratching the eyes causes the blood vessels under the eyes to dilate, even rupture and show through the skin, forming clearly visible dark circles. At this point, women may see dark circles that are pink or slightly purple, without puffiness or swelling around the eyes.
Currently, there are 2 main ways to reduce dark circles caused by blood vessels:
- Applying or injecting certain active ingredients: Using vitamin K, extracts from Ginkgo biloba through topical application or injection helps improve blood circulation, reduce the appearance of blood vessels under the skin, and support fading dark circles under the eyes.
- Modern laser technology IPL, PDL: If dark circles appear due to vascular proliferation and dilation, doctors can use laser beams and high-intensity pulsed light (IPL, PDL), ensuring safety and achieving the desired effectiveness.
Treatment for structural-type dark circles
In middle-aged and older clients, the amount of fat under the eyes decreases, creating hollows in the tear trough and eye socket, leading to shadowing and clearly visible dark circles when light shines from above.
For this cause, there are the following treatments for dark circles:
- HA injection: This method involves injecting Hyaluronic Acid to fill the structure of the skin around the eyes, helping to plump and improve elasticity, supporting the fading of dark circles. Accordingly, each type of HA has a different duration of effectiveness (6-12 months), and women can ask the doctor for more detailed advice.
- Blepharoplasty: Depending on each case, the doctor will prescribe an appropriate surgical method. Specifically as follows:
(1) Lower eyelid incision through the conjunctiva for cases with dark circles, fat bags but healthy skin and eyelids, showing no signs of aging. This method leaves no external scars, is safe, causes minimal trauma around the eyes, and reduces bruising and swelling, thus recovering faster. However, with this method, the effectiveness of dark circle removal only lasts for a short time.
(2) Lower eyelid incision through the external skin incision for cases where the lower eyelid has excess wrinkled skin, sagging, dark circles accompanied by fat bags. This is the optimal cosmetic method as it can address multiple aging issues around the eyes simultaneously, restoring bright and youthful eyes and maintaining long-lasting results. However, it requires a doctor with knowledge, experience, and skills to achieve the desired results.
The procedure for lower eyelid surgery is as follows:
Step 1: The doctor examines the eye area, assesses the condition of dark circles under the eyes, and advises on an appropriate method.
Step 2: The client is instructed to undergo some tests to check overall health to ensure safety during the surgery.
Step 3: Carefully measure and draw the lower eyelid area to outline the precise surgical line.
Step 4: Disinfect and anesthetize the eye area so that the client does not feel pain or discomfort during the procedure.
Step 5: The doctor performs lower eyelid surgery through the conjunctival incision or through the external skin incision. After that, carefully stitch the wound to ensure no ugly scars are left behind.
Step 6: The client rests on-site or goes home, taking care and returning for follow-up as directed by the doctor.
Possible Complications
Some cases of treating dark circles incorrectly or undergoing procedures at untrustworthy clinics can lead to concerning complications. Specifically:
Skin irritation from the use of unverified ointments or creams for dark circles.
Infections, blood loss, visual nerve damage, and more due to improper technique by the doctor.
Unsightly scars around the eyes resulting from careless stitching by the doctor.
However, the above complications can be effectively managed and minimized if clients choose the correct method at a reputable clinic.

“When I arrived at Dr. Eye, the doctor examined me very thoroughly and advised that my case had fat bags and dark circles but no signs of aging, only needing a minor surgery to cut the lower eyelid through the conjunctival route to remove the bags under my eyes and address the tear trough. The result is that the skin in the lower eyelid area is smoother and no longer has dark circles like before. The doctor also advised me on some ways to care for the eye area at home to maintain the results. I really thank Dr. Eye very much!”
