Hi,

Dark circle around eyes are called perorbital hypermelanosis. There may be some cause. Stress,tension,vitamin B12 deficiency,anaemia,endocrinal dysfunctions, blood diseases,internal diseases..etc can cause periorbital hypermelanosis. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. Kojic acid containing gel may be applied at night on affected areas. Tablets of vitamin C, glutathion or nicotinic acid may be taken. Facewash containing kojic acid may be used to cleanse the face. You may be improved after few months of treatment. I hope you gotmy answer.

Thanks.
