Hello,

Lipofilling and Nanofat
Your question is likely better answered after a careful in-person exam and discussion of your medical history. A number of causes may contribute to dark circles, including allergies, excessive salt, a number of medical problems, and genetics. There are also a number of treatments that can help with dark circles, including lasers or peels to lighten the eyelid and surrounding skin, fillers to add volume to tear troughs and camouflage depressions and volume loss, and eyelid surgery to trim excess skin and protruding fat pads around the eye. Consult with a plastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon, oculoplastic surgeon, or dermatologist about your concerns and for a more tailored answer. Good luck!
