To get dark circles under the eyes, simple homemade treatments such as cucumber, chamomile, potato or ice can be used, but there are also aesthetic treatments that achieve great results, such as the use of a dark circles cream and clinical treatments such as laser and peeling with acids.
Homemade treatments have better results for dark circles that come up from time to time, because if you slept badly, spent the night crying or are very tired, for example. Even for very dark and deep dark circles, it is usually necessary to resort to specialized treatments performed by doctors or physiotherapists.
Home Treatment Options
Some great home remedies for dark circles are:
- Apply a cold compress of chamomile tea for 5 minutes before bed and when you wake up, because chamomile soothes the skin and the cold temperature decreases the size of the blood vessels, lightening the area of the eyes;
- Place cold potato slices or cucumber slices and leave to act for about 15 minutes, the temperature makes a vasoconstriction, leaving the region less swollen and both the cucumber and the potato naturally lighten the skin;
- Place a piece of icy aluminum foil over the olheira for about 15 minutes. This technique works the same way as the potato, contracting the vessels and reducing the look of the eyesight;
- Spend an ice stone for 10 seconds and repeat up to 3 times after waking up, as the cold causes the vases of the skin to contract, reducing the depth of the eyesight and clearing it naturally.
In addition, eating well, drinking plenty of water, getting enough rest, quitting smoking, avoiding stress, and poorly sleeping nights are also some ways to prevent the appearance or aggravation of dark circles.

Specialized aesthetic treatments
Some of the most aesthetic treatments performed at clinics to remove dark circles include:
- Eye cream : should be prescribed by the dermatologist and help to lower blood vessels, decongest the area and clear it. The chosen cream should be applied at night in the dark circles, with circular movements counterclockwise, from outside to the inner corner of the eyes, until it is completely absorbed.
- Peeling with acid (retinoic or glycolic): Powerful esthetic treatment, which achieves excellent results, being especially indicated for cases of genetic look, very dark and well marked;
- Laser : Excellent treatment that must be performed by the dermatologist or specialized physiotherapist, who can eliminate much of the eyesight and in some cases even eliminate it.
