The most common cause of dark circles or bags
under the eye, is drop in collagen
production, if there is a drop in collagen production; as a result of aging,
then definitely the skin under the eye will be the first to be affected, the
skin under the eye are one of the delicate and tiniest as well as the most active part of the skin,
for example in just a minutes you involuntarily blink about 15 times, this is why
we are not talking of when foreign
bodies like flies and dust or insects try
to get into your eye.
Therefore the skin,
around the eye get more tired and stressed than any of the skin around the body
and this will definitely cause tiredness.
When this skin are worn-out they are automatically
replaced by new ones as a result of
action of the active skin hormones like elastin an collagen.
But unfortunately as we
age , the activities of these hormone should I say the production of these hormones
reduces and the renewing of the skin ceases,
this is why the skin appear wrinkle and thin.
The skin become thin and less firm and
elastic, this makes the blood vessels in them to appear black this is why we
saw this below our eye, and we call it a dark circles.
We can reverse this by
using special anti-aging or skin rejuvenating cream or serum, these are
substance that are specifically formulated to aid new skin cell rebirth, though they come in
different forms for different skin types { oily, dry, normal or sensitive} but
they all have same function to: rejuvenate the skin.
Other causes of these dark circles are hyper-pigmentations, a condition that cause production of melanin,
a hormone that aid skin complexion, very common in black people.
