How to eliminate under-eye circles?

Under-eye circles are considered one of the most prominent symptoms of exhaustion and undersleep. However, they can occur not only in those who do not sleep sufficiently long. The circles are often caused by metabolic or cardiovascular dysfunctions or can be a symptom of the aging. They are a serious problem to many because the face takes on tired and older appearance. The application of an eye shadow can cover the problem up only temporarily, so an increasing number of people place their trust in aesthetic medicine clinics for effective correction of the circles.

Where do under-eye circles come from?

The dark shadow under the eyes is caused mainly by blood vessels showing up through the skin. The skin in this area is very thin, fragile and, in addition, poor in adipose tissue, so any change in the condition of the skin shows up instantly. There are many causes to the occurrence of the circles. Undersleep and exhaustion are the typical culprits. Other ones include stress, smoking, abuse of alcohol or caffeine, or the taking of certain medicines. Finally, some people are genetically predisposed for having such shades.

How to avoid developing under-eye circles?

The circles are better prevented than treated. The caring for one’s body is crucial. The likelihood of developing the circles is very big in those who indulge in unhealthy life styles, abuse stimulants or neglect sleep hygiene. It can be a good idea to apply a proven blood circulation stimulating and skin moisturizing product under the eyes. However, the application technique is something that requires attention. The skin around the eyes should be treated with much more care than that on the rest of the body. The cosmetic should be gently patted in with finger tips. Shades or wrinkles will ultimately occur under the eyes but it is worth an effort to delay this process. So, if the lividity is not just a consequence of an all-nighter and persists, you will not make it without professional aid.

Elimination of under-eye circles

The treatment of under-eye circles should be a comprehensive one. Aesthetic medicine procedures can help to restore the young and fresh look of the surroundings of the eyes. Mesotherapy is an efficient remedy for the shades on the lower eyelids. The method consists of injection of therapeutic substances with a needle so thin that the procedure causes no discomfort even to the fine skin of the eyelids. This is how the patient can be treated with platelet-rich plasma or other nutrient fluid. The treatment improves blood circulation and reduces the swelling. The skin becomes regenerated, firmer and smoother. The Milanese lipofilling that we perform in our Clinic by the method of Dr. Goisis of Milan is another treatment effective in the suppression of the circles. The procedure consists of the grafting of a small quantity of adipose tissue taken from a side of the patient’s belly to the skin of the eyelids. Stem cells contained in this tissue have a beneficial therapeutic and visual effect on the skin.
