Safety is important. The skin quality in younger patients is usually quite good. With minimally invasive treatments for eyebags, if the eyebag needs to be shrunk, we use AGNES. AGNES is safe. Next, for tear troughs and deep hollows, we have the option of fillers which are often very useful. And very safe. For dark eye circles, sometimes it's the hollowness; if there is pigmentation underneath the eyes, a combination of radio-frequency or lasers can sometimes be useful.

Are there any creams or oral medications that are effective for dark eye circles?
Medical grade eye creams containing a combination of retinol, vitamin A and C, peptides, ceramides and hyaluronic acid, can help to stimulate collagen formation to reduce the appearance of dark eye circles caused by thin skin under the eyes. In patients with medical conditions such as sinusitis and allergy that result in congestion of blood vessels and fluid retention below the eyes, oral anti-histamines taken at a low dose short treatment course can be prescribed to help address these conditions, reducing the appearance of dark eye circles caused by vascular changes.
