I have huge dark circles and sunken eyes too. Although I have seen many people with sunken eyes but there under eyes are not dark as mine. Is filler or fat grafting only solution. As there is risk of blindness, tyndall effect and other complications i m afraid because of them but really need a solution. Can gaining weight actually fill the area.

Answer: Dark circles under the eyes Thank you for sharing your question. Darkness under the eyes can be due to hollowing, pigmentation and/or prominent vasculature. Fillers and laser skin resurfacing are usually the best options. See an experienced Oculoplastic Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and discussion of treatment options.Good luck,

Answer: Dark circles Hi and thank you for sharing your pictures and concerns. The issue you are describing is extremely common, and although there is not one standard protocol amongst providers to address it, there are certainly many different treatments available to help dramatically improve the appearance of dark circles and under eye hollows. As others have mentioned, you have to address both the pigment and the volume deficiency in the area that is resulting in what you're seeing. In your skin type, pigment can be addressed with topical creams/ointment as well as PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections and certain light/laser devices to help lighten the skin. Volume replacement can be accomplished with a wide variety of fillers, collagen stimulators or your own fat. Although there are risks with any procedure, in experienced and well-trained hands these procedures are generally very safe. An in-person consultation with a well-reviewed, qualified facial specialist is the next move for you! Hope that helped! Best, Dr. Roy
