What causes dark circles under eyes? People thought that dark circles are some kind of dermatological disease. It is a dermatological condition in the sense that it has been aggravated by some health factors. However, the main cause of dark under eye circles is not due to some skin disease but rather due to the limitation of a specific part of the circulatory system.
Our circulatory system is composed of the heart, blood vessels and the blood. The blood brings in some nutrients in our body. The heart pumps the blood and the blood vessels are the passageways of the blood. There are three major types of blood vessels. These are the arteries, veins and capillaries. The capillary around your eyes is the said guilty party that cause dark circles under eyes.
Why? The capillaries are the tiny blood vessels that connect the areoles and venules. Since it is very small, it cannot contain the continuous blood flow that occurs in this part of the body. As a result, the blood gets blockaded. The jammed up blood increases the pressure inside the capillaries. Since the capillaries have permeable wall, the blood escapes through this wall. The blood then settles in the under eye areas. It can be perceived as a bluish tint since the skin in this area is so thin.
The body has a system that corrects any aberrant behavior that occurs inside. The immune system that acts as our defense mechanism will straighten out this physiological condition. However, eyebags get stubborn and hard to eliminate if there are other physical conditions that are happening in our body. People who lack sleep may find it hard to get rid of their under eye circles. Those who have poor eating habits will also worsen their eyebags. Other factors that aggravate dark circles are allergies, rhinitis, eczema, medications and asthma.
But then some people who are health conscious and are disciplined may suffer eyebags. This is because they are genetically wired to have it. Yes! Dark under eyes circles can be inherited. It is their genetic makeup that causes dark circles under eyes.
