What are dark circles? Understanding the causes and influencing factors

Before delving into the details of carboxy injection treatment for dark circles, it is essential to understand the nature of this problem and its multiple causes. Dark circles are a discoloration of the skin under the eyes, often dark, and may be accompanied by swelling or loss of elasticity. The causes of their appearance are numerous and can be divided into genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors:

  • Genetic factors: Genetics play a significant role in determining the skin’s structure and color around the eyes. If a family member has a history of dark circles, you may be more prone to them. This inheritance may be related to the thinness of the skin in this area, increased pigmentation (melanin), or the presence of blood vessels too close to the skin’s surface.
  • Aging: With age, the skin loses its elasticity and collagen, making it thinner and more transparent. Blood vessels under the skin become more visible, appearing as dark shadows. Skin sagging and loss of fat under the eyes can also increase the visibility of dark circles.
  • Dehydration and lack of sleep: Lack of sleep and poor hydration are common causes of dark circles. When the body does not get enough rest, the blood vessels under the eyes dilate, increasing their appearance. Dehydration can also make the skin look duller and more transparent.
  • Allergies and dermatitis: Seasonal or chronic allergies can cause congestion in the blood vessels around the eyes, leading to darkening in the area. Constant rubbing of the eyes due to itching from allergies can increase skin irritation and discoloration.
  • Dietary factors: A deficiency in essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin K, vitamin C, vitamin B12, and iron, can affect skin health and contribute to the appearance of dark circles.
  • Stress and tension: Chronic stress contributes to overall bodily weakness, including affecting circulation and skin health, which may increase the visibility of dark circles.
  • Excessive sun exposure: UV rays can stimulate melanin production in the skin, leading to hyperpigmentation in the area under the eyes and exacerbating dark circles.
  • Smoking and alcohol consumption: These habits negatively affect circulation and overall skin health, contributing to the appearance of dark circles.
  • Certain medical conditions: Sometimes, dark circles may indicate other medical conditions such as thyroid problems or anemia.

Recent research developments: Recent studies indicate that our understanding of dark circles is continuously evolving. Scientists focus on vascular (blood vessels), pigmentary (increased melanin), and structural factors (loss of volume under the eye or drooping of the lower eyelid) as primary causes. Research is also increasing regarding the role of chronic inflammation in the skin and its effect on the appearance of dark circles.

Who are the ideal candidates for carboxy injection treatment for dark circles?

Carboxy injection treatment for dark circles is an excellent option for many, but like any medical procedure, there are some criteria that determine its suitability for candidates.

Ideal candidates:

  • Individuals suffering from vascular-origin dark circles: This type of dark circles results from increased visibility of blood vessels under the thin skin, giving the area a bluish or purplish color. Carboxy injections enhance blood circulation and tissue elasticity, reducing the visibility of these vessels.
  • Individuals suffering from dark circles due to thin skin: When the skin under the eye is very thin, the underlying tissues and blood vessels become more visible. Carboxy therapy stimulates collagen production, helping to increase skin thickness and reduce transparency.
  • Individuals seeking a non-surgical solution: Carboxy injection is a non-surgical procedure and does not require a long recovery period, making it a preferred option for those wishing to avoid surgery.
  • Individuals without active skin conditions in the under-eye area: Such as active eczema, infections, or inflammations.
  • Patients in good overall health: Who do not have chronic diseases that may interfere with the procedure or hinder the healing process.

Those who may not be ideal candidates:

  • Individuals suffering from dark circles primarily caused by severe hyperpigmentation: While carboxy injections may improve circulation, they may not be sufficient to address significantly elevated melanin levels. Such cases may require other treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy.
  • Individuals with severe under-eye puffiness (bags): This condition is often due to fat or fluid accumulation and may require surgical intervention or other treatments to reduce swelling.
  • Pregnant or lactating women: This treatment is not advisable during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precaution.
  • Individuals taking certain medications: Such as high-dose anticoagulants, or have bleeding disorders.

Your specialist doctor at “Health & Beauty Center in Turkey” will accurately assess your condition during the initial consultation to determine whether carboxy injection treatment for dark circles is the most suitable option for you.

  • Conducting necessary tests: Based on your condition and medical history, your doctor may ask you to carry out some basic laboratory tests before traveling or upon arrival in Turkey to ensure that there are no contraindications to the treatment.
  • Avoid certain medications and supplements: You may be asked to stop taking some medications that may increase the risk of bleeding or bruising, such as aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and some dietary supplements (such as vitamin E, fish oil) for a few days before the procedure. You will be provided with a detailed list.
  • Getting enough rest: Try to get good sleep in the days leading up to your travel.
  • Hydration attention: Drink enough water to keep your body and skin hydrated.

Upon arrival in Turkey:

  • Comprehensive medical examination: Your doctor will perform a thorough clinical examination of the under-eye area and assess the type and severity of dark circles.
  • Discussion of treatment details: Your doctor will explain to you in detail how carboxy injections work, the expected number of sessions, expected results, and any potential risks, and will answer all your inquiries.

Step by step: The journey of treating dark circles with carboxy injections

Carboxy injection treatment for dark circles is a relatively simple procedure, but understanding its steps helps reduce anxiety and increase confidence.

Before the procedure:

  • Cleaning and anesthesia: The under-eye area will be thoroughly cleaned with a medical antiseptic. The doctor may use a local anesthetic cream to minimize any sensation of sting or pain, although many patients find the procedure generally painless.
  • Marking injection points: The doctor will mark the exact points where the injections will be made to ensure even distribution of the substance.

During the procedure:

  • Injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas: Using a very fine needle, a tiny amount of sterile carbon dioxide gas is injected under the skin in the under-eye area.
  • Mechanism of action:
    • Improving blood circulation: Upon injecting the gas, a natural body response occurs, resulting in increased blood and oxygen flow to the area. This enhances cell nutrition and promotes detoxification, reducing congestion and the appearance of dark circles.
    • Stimulating collagen production: Carbon dioxide is a natural stimulant for collagen and elastin production in the skin. These proteins are essential for maintaining skin elasticity and thickness. With increased collagen production, the skin under the eye becomes thicker and stronger, thereby reducing its transparency and hiding the blood vessels beneath.
    • Renewing skin cells: Improving blood circulation accelerates the skin cell renewal process, giving the area a fresher and brighter appearance.
  • Duration: The injection itself only takes a few minutes for each eye.

After the procedure:

  • Immediate monitoring: The doctor will monitor you for a few minutes after completion to ensure there are no immediate reactions.
  • Return to activity: You can return to your regular daily activities immediately after the procedure since carboxy injections are non-surgical and do not require downtime.
  • Home care instructions: The doctor will provide you with simple instructions such as avoiding excessive rubbing of the under-eye area and applying cold compresses if you experience any minimal swelling (which is rare).
  • Medical follow-up: The doctor will schedule a follow-up appointment to assess the results and determine the need for additional sessions.

Recovery period and results:

  • Immediate recovery: Recovery is typically immediate. You may notice slight redness or very mild swelling at the injection site, which subsides within a few hours.
  • When do results appear? Results begin to become visible gradually after the first session, but optimal results are usually seen after completing a series of sessions (usually between 3 to 6 sessions, spaced weeks apart).
  • Maintaining results: To maintain results, you may need periodic follow-up sessions as recommended by your doctor.
  • Restrictions: There are no strict restrictions after the procedure. It is advised to avoid direct exposure to strong sunlight for a short period and maintain good hydration.
