Karan, a 30-year-old entrepreneur from Bangalore, had always considered himself “lucky” for not facing many skin issues. But when he started working long hours on his startup, he noticed his dark circles becoming more noticeable. His eyes looked tired, even after a full night’s rest. Karan turned to search for what causes dark circles in Indians, best treatments for removal to find out why this was happening.
Yes, dark circles are often a genetic trait in Indians.
The under-eye skin in Indians tends to be thinner, which makes blood vessels more visible. Combined with a natural tendency for hyperpigmentation, dark circles are a common issue.
Karan’s family members also had dark circles, which his dermatologist pointed out as a likely genetic cause.
Yes, hormonal fluctuations can affect skin and cause dark circles to appear more pronounced.
Karan had been working long hours and neglecting his diet, which can also disrupt hormones and increase stress levels, further exacerbating his under-eye shadows.
Topical Creams with Vitamin C or Retinol:
These ingredients help to reduce pigmentation and boost collagen production.
PRP Therapy:
A highly effective treatment that uses your own platelets to rejuvenate the under-eye skin.
Laser Resurfacing:
Targets pigmentation and tightens the delicate skin under the eyes.
Under-Eye Fillers:
These fillers restore lost volume and diminish shadowing.
Karan chose PRP therapy and laser resurfacing at Dermatology Diaries. After just one session, he noticed his under-eye area becoming lighter and firmer.
