Causes and Types of Dark Circles
Why do dark circles appear and what types are there?
To choose the best treatment, it is essential to understand the cause of your dark circles. At Skina Clinic, our dermatologists perform a detailed assessment to determine the type of dark circles you have:
- Vascular circles: These have a nuance blue-violet and are often caused by poor blood circulation. The thin skin around the eyes allows blood vessels to be more visible.
- Pigmented circles: Characterized by a color Marone, they are the result of localized hyperpigmentation. This can be caused by sun exposure, genetics, or certain medical conditions.
- Volume circles ("sunken" eyes): They appear as we lose fat and collagen from the under-eye area, leaving a „sunken” or hollow appearance. This loss of volume creates a shadow that accentuates facial fatigue.

Treatments for dark circles
Mesotherapy with personalized cocktails
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting vitamins, minerals, and hyaluronic acid directly into the skin. For dark circles, we use a specially formulated cocktail to improve circulation, hydrate the skin, and reduce pigmentation.
- Benefits: brighter skin, deep hydration, revitalized appearance.
Professional Topical Treatments for the Periocular Area
These specialized facials and/or peels utilize advanced Image Skincare formulas tailored to the delicate eye area. Key ingredients include peptides (for firming and reducing dark circles and wrinkles), plant stem cells (for protection and regeneration), and Vitamin C (for brightening and antioxidant effects).
- Benefits: Visible lightening of dark circles, reducing the appearance of puffy eyes (bags), intensely hydrating the thin skin around the eyes, improving texture and blurring fine lines.
Hyaluronic acid fillers
This procedure is ideal for volume-enhancing dark circles. A filler specially designed for the sensitive eye area is injected to fill the “hollow” area, restoring lost volume.
- Benefits: Instantly eliminates the appearance of "stuffy" eyes, reduces shadows, provides a rested look.
Hyaluronic acid treatment, especially for volume loss-type dark circles ("sunken" eyes), is one of the most popular non-surgical procedures.
- Safety and efficacy: An article published in „Aesthetic Surgery Journal” emphasizes that hyaluronic acid fillers are an ideal method to restore lost volume and improve the appearance of "tired eyes", with immediate results and high patient satisfaction
- Clinical observations: A study conducted on a sample of patients treated with hyaluronic acid for dark circles showed a satisfaction rate of over 80%, with patients feeling more rested and attractive after treatment. Side effects, such as temporary swelling, are minor and resolve quickly.
Hybrid fillers and biorevitalizers (Jalupro and Juvelook)
This category of treatments is ideal for 'volume loss' and pigmented dark circles, combining the filling properties of hyaluronic acid with those of biostimulation. At Skina Clinic, we use innovative products such as Jalupro and Juvelook to provide natural and long-lasting results.
Jalupro
Jalupro is a product specially designed for the delicate eye area. This is not a classic filler, but a biorevitalizer containing a unique complex of amino acids and hyaluronic acid. Injected into the under-eye area, it stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, improving skin quality and reducing dark circles and fine wrinkles.
Jalupro benefits:
- Stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.
- Improves skin elasticity and firmness.
- Reduces the visibility of fine wrinkles and dark circles.
- It provides a fresh and bright look without adding excessive volume.
Juvelook
Juvelook is a hybrid filler that combines poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) with hyaluronic acid. Thanks to this unique formula, Juvelook offers both a strong long-term collagen biostimulation thanks to PDLLA and an immediate filling effect thanks to hyaluronic acid. It is an innovative solution, specially created for the dark circles area, which provides a natural, "glass skin" look.
The main role of poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) in the treatment of dark circles and the periocular area is as a collagen biostimulator. It acts as follows:
- Stimulation of Neocollagenesis – once injected, PDLLA (unlike Hyaluronic Acid, which provides immediate filling) begins a slow but lasting process of stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen (neocollagenesis) in the thin and fragile skin around the eyes.
- Improving Skin Quality: Increased collagen leads to thickening and strengthening of the dermis, thus improving skin elasticity and structure.
- Reducing Shadow Dark Circles: By restoring dermal volume and structure, PDLLA can gently lift the skin, reducing the appearance of 'deep' dark circles or those caused by a 'shadow' caused by volume loss.
Hyaluronic acid, on the other hand, provides deep hydration and a subtle plumping effect, reducing dimples and evening out skin texture.
A study published in "„Aesthetic Surgery Journal”"and clinical observations have confirmed that the use of fillers such as Juvelook helps restore lost volume and improve overall appearance, with results that last for an extended period, sometimes up to two years, due to the stimulation of the skin's own collagen."
Juvelook benefits:
- Immediate effect of filling the hollow area.
- It stimulates the production of the skin's own collagen, for long-term results (up to 2 years).
- Reduces shadows, giving a rested look.
- Improves the texture and firmness of the skin in the delicate eye area.
- Minimally invasive: the procedure is quick and involves minimal discomfort.
- Safety: Juvelook is a biocompatible and biodegradable product.
- Versatility: can also be used to rejuvenate other sensitive areas, such as the neck or décolleté
Contraindications:
Although it is a safe treatment, Juvelook is not recommended in the following situations:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active infections in the treatment area (herpes, acne)
- Active autoimmune diseases
- Blood clotting disorders, thrombophilia
- Known allergies to product components
- Recent treatments with certain medications (e.g. anticoagulants, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs – on doctor's recommendation)
Juvelook Injection Procedure (Step by Step)
The Juvelook injection procedure at our clinic in Bucharest is performed by an experienced specialist, ensuring safety and optimal results.
- Area Evaluation and Marking: The doctor carefully examines the area of dark circles, assesses their type and severity, and marks the precise injection points for optimal product distribution. This step ensures a personalized approach.
- Local anesthesia: For your comfort, the doctor will inject a local anesthetic into the area to be treated. This will significantly reduce any discomfort felt during the injection.
- Cannula Insertion: A fine cannula (which has a blunt tip, reducing the risk of bruising and vascular damage) is used to introduce the product into the superficial or middle layers of the skin, depending on the specifics of the area and the type of dark circles.
- Correction Product Distribution: The Juvelook product is injected gradually and evenly under the skin, gently massaging the area to ensure a homogeneous distribution and a natural appearance. The doctor will constantly monitor the tissue reaction.
Duration and Effect of Juvelook Treatment
A Juvelook injection session for dark circles generally lasts between 15 and 30 minutes. The first effects of hydration and brightness may be visible immediately after the procedure, but full and long-lasting results take place gradually as cell regeneration processes are stimulated.
Pre-procedure Preparation and Post-procedure Care Juvelook Treatment
Before the procedure:
- Avoid alcohol consumption 24-48 hours beforehand.
- Avoid anticoagulant medications (aspirin, ibuprofen) and supplements (vitamin E, fish oil) at least one week before, with your doctor's approval.
- Inform your doctor about any medical conditions, allergies, or medication you are taking.
- Come to your appointment with a clean face, without makeup.
After the procedure:
- Avoid touching, massaging, or applying makeup to the treated area for at least 6-12 hours.
- Avoid direct exposure to the sun, solarium, sauna and intense physical exertion for 24-48 hours.
- Apply cold compresses if swelling or mild bruising occurs.
- Follow the specific instructions received from your doctor.
Possible Side Effects
Side effects are generally mild and transient:
- Redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site (often minimal, due to the use of the cannula).
- Sensitivity or slight discomfort.
These usually disappear within a few hours or days. Any persistent or severe reaction should be reported to the doctor immediately.
Laser or IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Therapy
This approach targets visible blood vessels to reduce the bluish/purplish appearance or to stimulate collagen production, improving skin firmness. At Skina Clinic, we use advanced laser technologies to ensure maximum safety and effectiveness.
- Benefits: reduces pigmentation, evens out skin tone, improves texture.
Lasers are an effective option, especially for pigmented (brown) and vascular (blue) dark circles. Several studies have demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of this approach:
- Efficiency: An article published in the magazine „"Lasers in Surgery and Medicine"” analyzed laser treatments for periorbital hyperpigmentation. The analysis showed that lasers and combination treatments had the highest patient satisfaction rates, with 82% of them reporting an improvement over 50%.
- Laser types: Research published in „"Dermatological Surgery"” have emphasized that 1064 nm (Q-switched Nd:YAG) lasers are safe and effective in reducing melanin deposits that cause dark circles. Also, 755 nm (picosecond alexandrite) lasers have shown significant improvement after just a few sessions.
Croma's PolyPhil (polynucleotide) Treatment for Dark Circles
PolyPhil by Croma is an advanced solution in medical aesthetics, specially developed to effectively combat the appearance of dark circles and revitalize the delicate area around the eyes. This product uses an innovative formula, created by the renowned manufacturer Croma, to provide a complete approach to the treatment of dark circles.
PolyPhil's unique composition works by stimulating the skin's natural regeneration processes. The product helps improve skin quality, boosting the production of collagen and elastin, essential for firm, youthful-looking skin. At the same time, PolyPhil ensures deep regeneration and helps even out skin texture, contributing to a brighter, more rested look.
Benefits: effectively addresses various types of dark circles, including pigmentary or vascular ones, through a complex mechanism of action:
- Stimulating collagen production – actively contributes to the reconstruction of the skin structure, giving firmness and elasticity to the sensitive area under the eyes.
- Improving skin quality – promotes regeneration and a uniform texture, visibly reducing the tired and dull appearance.
- Natural and long-lasting results – thanks to the cellular regeneration action, the appearance becomes progressively fresher and more rested, with effects that last for an extended period.
- Minimally invasive procedure – the intervention is quick and involves minimal discomfort, allowing you to quickly return to daily activities.
- Guaranteed safety – PolyPhil is a biocompatible and biodegradable product with an excellent safety profile, being well tolerated by most patients.
Contraindications:
Although it is a safe treatment, PolyPhil is not recommended in the following situations:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active infections in the treatment area (herpes, acne)
- Active autoimmune diseases
- Blood clotting disorders, thrombophilia
- Known allergies to product components
- Recent treatments with certain medications (e.g. anticoagulants, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs – on doctor's recommendation)
PolyPhil Injection Procedure (Step by Step)
The PolyPhil injection procedure at our clinic in Bucharest is performed exclusively by a specialist doctor, with extensive experience, ensuring maximum safety and optimal results, adapted to each case.
- Initial assessment and marking of the area: The doctor carefully examines the area of dark circles, assesses their type and severity, then marks the precise injection points. This step is crucial for a homogeneous and effective distribution of the product, guaranteeing a personalized approach.
- Local anesthesia for comfort: To ensure your comfort during the procedure, a topical anesthetic cream is applied to the area to be treated. This significantly minimizes any discomfort felt during the injection.
- Product introduction with cannula or fine needle: A fine cannula (with a blunt tip, to minimize the risk of bruising and vascular damage) or an ultrafine needle is used to precisely introduce the product into the superficial or middle layers of the skin, depending on the anatomical features and type of dark circles.
- Homogeneous product distribution: The PolyPhil product is injected gradually and evenly under the skin, and the area is gently massaged to ensure optimal dispersion and a natural appearance. The doctor will constantly monitor the tissue reaction throughout the procedure.
