How to remove dark circles

When it comes to the problem of dark circles, I believe that many female friends who love beauty are very disgusted with it. Dark circles do seriously affect the appearance of female friends, and they also give people a feeling of listlessness and even a sense of untrustworthiness. Therefore, many female friends will try every possible means to find a way to remove dark circles. So what is the way to remove dark circles?

In fact, the formation of dark circles is closely related to many reasons, such as: staying up late frequently, large emotional gaps, etc., or long-term exposure to the sun. So what is the method to remove dark circles? Let me explain it to you in detail below.

Dark circles are caused by staying up late, emotional instability, eye fatigue, aging, slow blood flow in the veins, insufficient oxygen supply to the red blood cells in the eye skin, excessive accumulation of carbon dioxide and metabolic waste in the veins, causing chronic hypoxia, darker blood and stagnation, and eye pigmentation.

Introduction

Dark circles, also known as "panda eyes", are caused by staying up late, emotional instability, eye fatigue, aging, slow blood flow in the veins, insufficient oxygen supply to the red blood cells in the eye skin, excessive accumulation of carbon dioxide and metabolic waste in the veins, resulting in chronic hypoxia, darker blood and stagnation, and eye pigmentation. As people age, the subcutaneous fat around their eyes becomes thinner, so dark circles become more obvious. There are actually two colors of dark circles. One is cyan dark circles, which are caused by venous blood retention in the microvessels; the other is brown dark circles, which are caused by incomplete melanin production and metabolism. The causes of the two dark circles are completely different. Dark circles under the eyes usually occur around the age of 20, and are especially difficult to avoid for people with irregular lifestyles. Nowadays, due to the heavy study pressure on students, staying up late has become commonplace for young people, so the age of people with dark circles under their eyes tends to move downward, and dark circles are already very common among people over 18 years old. This is because the blood flow rate in the microvessels is slow, the blood volume increases and the oxygen consumption increases, resulting in a significant increase in hypoxic hemoglobin. Externally, the skin appears to have a dark blue tint. Because there are more microvessels around the eyes, factors such as lack of sleep, eye fatigue, stress, and anemia can cause congestion and swelling of the skin around the eyes. The cause of dark circles under the eyes is closely related to aging. Long-term sun exposure causes pigmentation around the eyes, which will form lingering dark circles over time.

Dark circles formation

The formation of dark circles is related to the following factors: 1. Genetic constitution and physiological structure. When the skin around the eye sockets is particularly thin and the subcutaneous tissue is particularly scarce, when blood flows through the large veins here, a blue-black halo will appear very close to the surface of the skin, which is called dark circles. 2. Lack of sleep and excessive fatigue prevent the eyelids from getting rest and keep them in a tense and contracted state. The blood flow to this area increases for a long time, causing the blood vessels in the subcutaneous tissue around the eyes to become filled, which leads to congestion around the eyes and leaves a dark shadow. 3. Deficiency of kidney qi causes the eyes to lack the nourishment of essence and qi, causing black to float on the eyes, resulting in dark circles under the eyes. 4. People who have been ill for a long time or have just recovered from a serious illness are prone to pigmentation due to the weak subcutaneous tissue around the eyes. The pigmentation is easily revealed on the upper and lower eyelids, resulting in the appearance of a layer of dark circles. 5. Dark circles will gradually deepen for women with irregular menstruation, functional uterine bleeding, primary dysmenorrhea, early or late menstruation, prolonged menstruation, heavy menstrual flow, late pregnancy, and old age. Other factors include genetics, excessive use of cosmetics that causes the penetration of pigment particles, and excessive sexual intercourse, all of which can lead to the formation of dark circles.
