Wondering why you have dark circles under your eyes? In this video, we’ll explore the surprising reasons behind this common issue. Dark circles under the eyes are a common cosmetic concern caused by a combination of factors that can vary from person to person. One primary contributor is hyperpigmentation, where excess melanin production leads to darkened skin beneath the eyes, often influenced by genetics, sun exposure, or inflammation. Another key factor involves vascular changes, as the skin under the eyes is thin and can easily reveal the underlying blood vessels, especially when blood flow is sluggish or when the area becomes congested, giving a bluish or purplish tint. Anatomical features also play a role—tear troughs and deep-set eyes can create shadowing effects, making the area appear darker even when the skin tone is normal. Additionally, under-eye puffiness or swelling, often caused by fluid retention, allergies, or fat herniation with aging, can cast shadows that exaggerate the appearance of darkness. In many individuals, a combination of these mechanisms contributes to the overall appearance of dark circles.
