Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
Dark circles under eyes or under eye pigmentation is a challenging condition to treat.
Its seen commonly in people having stressful life and irregular sleep and diet. Its also seen among people having atopic dermatitis and asthma. Sometimes its genetic due to deep sunken eye sockets in skull.
Most of the OTC products are not very useful.
I would advise you to apply tacrolimus 0.03% ointment at night and AVARTA eye cream twice a day. Take oral Vit C regularly.
Additionally, a series of chemical peels like arginine, lactic acid etc from a certified dermatologist can help alot.
For darkness over face, again chemical peels will be of great help.
Also, apply a cream containing kojic acid, arbutin, tetrahydrocurcumin on regular basis for blemish free radiant skin.
Try to de-stress your life and maintain a healthy schedule.
Hope you will be fine
Take care
