We will highlight first some additional contributing factors for dark circles:

  1. Heredity
    Dark circles may appear due to family history. They can be seen early in childhood as dark pigmentation on the upper and lower eyelids.
  2. Blue veins under eyes (venous stasis)
    Blue veins appear when the skin under your eyes is too thin. These veins can cause bluish dark circles under your eyes.
  3. Groove under eyes
    Dark circles may be due to the hollowness of the lower eyelids, which forms as a result of fat loss and ligaments loosening as one becomes older. For young people, this hollowness may be due to their facial structure.
