“Bags and dark circles are not all the same, and can have various causes, single or associated, on which
genetics and lifestyle can influence. Dark circles are dark-bluish halos in the area
suborbital which take away its natural beauty from the gaze. The causes could be:
congenital capillary fragility, excessive exposure to sunlight, stress, the natural
skin aging and depression (technically tear valley, thinning of the skin
typical of advancing age in the periorbital area), anemia, hyperpigmentation or the use of
particular drugs that tend to accentuate the bluish halo. The eyelid bags are related to the
fluid stagnation (periorbital edema) or the accumulation of adipose tissue and sagging
of skin elasticity. The appearance of bags is often associated with the manifestation of pigments
dark, such as melanin, which amplifies the problem. A precise diagnosis is a lot

incision in the conjunctiva, without any external skin scar. The advantage lies not only
in the absence of visible scars, but above all in the total absence of the risk of
rounding of the eye".
