Under Eye Circle Treatment in Brooklyn, NY
What Are Under-Eye Circles?
Under-eye circles refer to darkened, hollow, or shadowed areas beneath the eyes that can create a tired, aged, or stressed appearance. They may appear as brown, purple, blue, or gray discoloration and are often accompanied by hollowness or thinning skin. Undereye dark circles are a common cosmetic concern affecting both men and women of all ages.
While under-eye circles are not harmful, many individuals seek professional treatment for under-eye dark circles to restore a brighter, more refreshed appearance. Because the under-eye area has thinner skin and limited fat, changes in this region are often more noticeable and may worsen over time without targeted care.
Common Areas Affected
Under-eye circles primarily affect the delicate area beneath the eyes, including:
- Tear troughs (the hollow groove under the eyes)
- Lower eyelid region
- Inner corners of the eyes
- Upper cheek junction, where shadows may form
Because this skin is thin and highly vascular, discoloration and volume changes are more visible than in other areas of the face.
Why Under Eye Circles Occur
Under-eye dark circles develop due to a combination of factors affecting skin color, volume, and circulation. In some individuals, dark circles are caused by excess pigmentation, while in others they result from visible blood vessels beneath thin skin.
Loss of volume beneath the eyes can create shadows that exaggerate darkness, even when pigmentation is minimal. Aging, genetics, and lifestyle factors may all contribute to worsening appearance over time. Unlike surface concerns, under-eye circles often involve deeper structural changes, which is why topical creams or a natural cure for dark under-eye circles may offer limited improvement.
Contributing Factors
Several factors may contribute to the development of under-eye circles, including:
- Genetics and inherited skin traits
- Thinning skin and collagen loss with age
- Volume loss under the eyes
- Poor circulation or vascular visibility
- Fatigue, stress, or dehydration
- Allergies or sinus congestion
Because under-eye circles often result from multiple overlapping causes, identifying the underlying issue is key to selecting the best treatment for under-eye circles.
How Are Under-Eye Circles Treated?
Treatment for under-eye dark circles focuses on restoring volume, improving skin quality, and enhancing light reflection in the under-eye area. Non-surgical treatments are commonly used to address hollowness, discoloration, and structural support without downtime.
At Skin Envy Cosmetic and Laser Center, under-eye circle treatment plans are customized based on anatomy, skin thickness, degree of volume loss, and individual aesthetic goals. A combination approach is often recommended for natural-looking, long-lasting improvement.
EZGEL®
EZGEL® is a regenerative treatment derived from the patient's own blood using platelet-rich fibrin technology. EZGEL® improves skin quality, restores subtle volume, and enhances hydration in the under-eye area. It is commonly used to treat undereye dark circles caused by thinning skin and volume loss.
PRF Treatment
PRF treatment delivers growth factors that support collagen production, improve circulation, and enhance tissue regeneration. PRF is often chosen by patients seeking a natural, non-surgical option to improve under-eye darkness and skin texture over time.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers restore lost volume beneath the eyes, helping reduce shadows and improve contour. Fillers are commonly used for under-eye hollows and tear troughs, providing immediate improvement when volume loss is the primary concern.
Treatments may be used individually or in combination, depending on the cause and severity of under-eye circles.
