The best treatment for dark circles depends on the underlying cause and severity. Effective treatments include:
2. Chemical Peels: Peels can improve skin texture and tone, reducing the visibility of dark circles.
While dark circles can be effectively treated and their appearance minimized, complete permanent removal may not always be possible, especially if they are caused by genetic factors.
Dark circles under the eyes are referred to as “periorbital hyperpigmentation.”
Tiredness and lack of sleep can lead to increased paleness of the skin, making dark circles more noticeable. However, other factors, such as genetics and thin skin, also contribute to dark circles.
At Dr Wafaa Clinic, we offer a range of treatments to address dark circles under the eyes tailored to your individual needs. Our team of medical professionals is committed to providing you with personalized care and effective solutions for achieving a refreshed and rejuvenated look.

Using skincare products containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and retinol can help improve skin texture and appearance around the eyes. Additionally, applying sunscreen daily is crucial to prevent further darkening from sun exposure.
Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
1. Genetics: Family history can play a significant role in the development of dark circles, as certain people may inherit thinner skin or more prominent blood vessels around the eye area.
2. Age: As we age, the skin’s collagen and fat diminish, making blood vessels beneath the eyes more visible, leading to the appearance of dark circles.
3. Thin Skin: The skin under the eyes is delicate and thin, which can make blood vessels more apparent, especially when blood pools in the area.
4. Lack of Sleep: Insufficient sleep can lead to increased paleness of the skin, making dark circles more noticeable.
5. Allergies: Seasonal allergies can cause inflammation and increased blood flow, resulting in darker skin around the eyes.
6. Sun Exposure: Prolonged sun exposure can trigger the production of melanin, which can contribute to darkening the under-eye area.
Not everyone experiences dark circles under the eyes. However, they are relatively common and can affect individuals of all ages and skin types.
Factors that can exacerbate the appearance of dark circles include:
1. Lack of Sleep: Inadequate sleep can make dark circles more pronounced due to increased paleness of the skin.
2. Dehydration: Insufficient hydration can lead to dull and sallow-looking skin, accentuating the appearance of dark circles.
3. Smoking and Alcohol Consumption: Both smoking and excessive alcohol consumption can contribute to skin dehydration and may worsen dark circles.

After having Polynucleotides treatment in Dr Wafaa Clinic for 2 months (3 months for complete treatment), my skin condition has improved, more hydrated, elastic, and my eczema gradually dissapeared. I could not be more pleased. M Ibrahim2024-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Dr Wafaa is really great at what she does! I definitely recommend everyone to check out her work and clinic! Raluca I2023-12-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t recommend Dr Wafaa highly enough for her professionalism and care for her clients! I’ve had anti-ageing treatments done at a different clinic in Reading and Dr Wafaa is by far better and more professional. During my initial consultation, she’s taken some time to provide me with useful advice tailored to my skin. She has then performed the treatment/ injections and I’m very happy with the results! I cannot say the same about the other clinic i visited earlier in the year! She’s also recommended me a cream that works wonders. I highly recommend Dr Wafaa. ~Raluca~ Marwa Mahdi2023-12-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The atmosphere was calming, and I immediately felt at ease. Dr Waffa demonstrated a deep understanding of TMJ issues, and her expertise were evident throughout the process. The injections themselves were administered with precision and care. Dr Wafaa took the time to explain each step, making sure I felt comfortable and informed. Results were remarkable. Looking forward to my next treatment. Kerina NLoad more
