Dark circles are one of the most common aesthetic concerns due to changes in modern lifestyle, stress, increased screen time, nutritional deficiencies and more. Most men and women use concealers to hide the hyperpigmentation around their eyes temporarily. Though not a health condition, dark circles can make you look old, unhealthy and tired.
If you are wondering how to remove dark circles under eyes permanently, you came to the right place. Advanced US FDA-approved dark circle treatments at Oliva Skin & Hair Clinic help effectively and safely reduce them with long-lasting satisfaction.
What Are Dark Circles Under Your Eyes?
Dark circles can result from brownish to bluish skin tone or a shadowing effect in the eye area. They can lead to a tired, old and sickly appearance. Though not a health condition, it may be a significant facial aesthetic concern. Dark circles may become challenging to treat and require advanced procedures performed by a qualified medical professional.
The condition, also known as Periorbital Hyperpigmentation (POH), Periorbital Melanosis, Infraorbital Darkening and Infraorbital Discolouration, affects up to 48% of people in the 16-25 age group.

Healthy sleeping habits, balanced nutrition and lifestyle may help reduce and prevent dark circles.
Massaging doesn’t remove dark circles. Excessive rubbing can cause friction-induced dark circles. Instead of trying self-care methods and home remedies with unproven safety and efficacy, opt for early medical help for the best results of advanced treatments.
