Introduction

Dark Eye Circle

Dark circles, under-eye hollows, and puffy eye bags can leave you looking tired and less refreshed. Influenced by genetics, aging and lifestyle factors, these concerns are often difficult to improve with skincare alone. But, fret not! With the right diagnosis and professional treatments, dark circles can be effectively improved for a fresher and more youthful appearance.

At Ikigai Clinic, we begin every consultation with a detailed assessment to ensure that your treatment plan is precisely tailored to your skin’s needs for safe, natural and lasting results.

Not all dark circles are the same — identifying the type is the key to effective treatment.

Types of Dark Eye Circle

Pigmented Dark Circles
This type is caused by excess melanin production under the eyes, common among Asian and darker skin tones.
01
Vascular Dark Circles
When the under-eye skin is thin, underlying blood vessels become more visible, giving a reddish or purplish hue.
02
Structural (Tear Trough) Dark Circles
As we age, the skin loses fat, collagen and elasticity, leading to hollowing under the eyes that creates shadowed look.
03
Mixed Type Dark Circles
A combination of two or more factors — pigmentation, visible vessels, and volume loss.
