Correct Eye Hollows & Dark Circles with Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Dark circles beneath the eyes are one of the biggest beauty problems that women face. Waking up in the morning and staring back at dark under-eye hollows in the mirror is never a pretty sight and although they aren't a serious problem, they can make us look older, unhealthy, tired and exhausted. Dark circles under the eyes are a normal occurrence, especially after a night out, a busy day at work or if we have sleep deprivation.

The darkness of the skin beneath the eyes is usually known as dark circles, dark rings or shadows, and they can creep up unannounced as the skin below the eyes is the thinnest and the veins underneath become visible for the slightest reasons. An increased production of melanin make women with darker skin tones more prone to hyperpigmentation around the eyes, where those with lighter skin tones often present dark circles with a reddish or purple hue.

As we age, we notice certain facial changes, and one that's commonly commented on is the dark circles under the lower eyelids, which can make us look tired and older than you really are, and it only gets worse as time goes on. The skin can also lose some of its volume and elasticity and the decrease of collagen production and elastin causes it to becomes thinner, and the loss of fatty tissues can cause a hollow or sunken appearance.

• Loss of volume around the eye area exposes the orbital bone, which can result in a hollowed appearance beneath the eyes.
• Changes in the skin's colour or pigmentation are common among those of African or Asian descent, causing dark circles under the eyes.
• Eye bags and dark circles can also be genetic, and there's a high chance that you could develop it as well, if some of your family have them too.
• Sun exposure can produce excess melanin which can also cause darkening around the eye area.
• Allergies, such as hay fever and cat hair, are common culprits often resulting in a dark purple hue around the eyes. 
• A hectic social life, with late night outs, excess alcohol or smoking, can all temporarily darken the eye area.

Sunken eyes can now be corrected using advanced dermal fillers, which can also help correct the dark shadowing beneath the eyes. Dermal filler not only fills in that hollow area, but it also helps to increase collagen production. The dermal fillers we use are non-animal based, and are extremely safe. We inject the filler into the deeper layers of skin, and over the following weeks will cause rehydration of the skin and underlying tissues, improving and rejuvenating your face.
