Name: sally Country: england Comment: BTW I ve'been using Hollywood eye magic for last 1 and half months but yet not got desired results.My DCs are black due to pigmentation. Name: sally Country: england Comment: Jyoti,for how many days are u using HP and from where did you buy it.The biggest problem is that if you research,you get very unclear idea about use of HP as some articles say that it is hazardous to use HP on skin as it may kill skin cells. Name: Jyoti Country: india Comment: my dark circles are starting to lighten with hydrogen peroxide. it is working Name: jodi Country: usa Comment: oh, and I should mention that I've had dark circles (purple, from veins) my entire life and had already tried laser surgery, Vita-K, Circle Clear, Dermalex, Hydrolyze, Sudden Change, St. Ives Vitamin K formula, clean & clear undereye brightening stick, and probably a few others. Hollywood Eye Magic is the first that has given me noticeable results. Name: jodi Country: usa Comment: well, I've continued to have good results from the Hollywood Eye Magic. It's gradual, but my eyes are better each day. I have freckles and I can actually SEE the freckles under my eyes now - I didn't even know they were there, because it's been so dark for so long. My circles haven't gone away completely, and I don't really expect them to. But it's so nice to wear way less makeup! joejoe, I'm sorry it hasn't been working for you... keep applying it, it can't hurt. I plan to give up caffeine too; I'm hoping that will help. Name: Tianna Country: england Comment: Hii everyone, have any of you ever used Nur76 and can safely say that it works? Name: joejoe Country: other Comment: I've been using Hollywood Eye Magic for a couple of days, and I've seen no improvement in my dark circles at all. None. Name: Amani Country: england Comment: Hi Dark Circles Gone, I done a bit of reserch on restylane injection and have found that there are some massive side effects and leave your eyes swollen/puffy for months or in extreme cases years. Are you sure this works safely? What are the costs for this? Name: sally Country: england Comment: Hi dark circle gone,were ur dcs black and around ur eyes or just beneath them. Name: dark circles gone Country: usa Comment: August 8, 2008 MINE ARE GONE!!!! I have had dark circles since I was 15. I am 25 now and have spent the past ten years of my life with horrific dark circles that made me look tired, fugly, hagly etc. There was no puffiness just very very dark. No concealer could cover them. I wouldnt even walk around my own house without gads of concealer on thats how ugly they were. I went to many dermotologists tried every cream out there etc. NO CURE. Until I moved to California. I saw an ad from a plastic surgeon claiming her could get rid of dark circles. This was interesting to me because I went to 3 plastic surgerons before who all told me eeven surgery wont remove them. Anyways long story short I ended up having restylin injected into my dark circles. I am cured! The results were instant as soon as he injected it they were 100% gone. This is because the restylyn fills out the holow area and masks the darkness from underneath the skin. For the first time in 10 years I go out of the house without any makeup on. I remember when I had the dark circles and I would see 50 year olds with no make up on and wondering how it was that they looked way better then me without make up. I feel so free and I can look people in the eyses now knowing they are looking back into mine and not staring disgustingly at the dark bag lady circles. Name: kay Country: england Comment: Hi everyone, well it surprising to see how many people are affecting with this dark circle under eyes. I had my since i was 13 years old. i try everything in the book u can think about, but funny enough i found a cure and didnt even realize that i did. i was a size 14 and decide to go on diet, because i always been a size 10 to 12. any way i started my diet, so all together i cut out salts, sugar no form of sugar i use sweenter instead of sugar if i have to have something sweet, i started living on low fat food, i dont cook with oils, if i have to use oil i use flora sunflower. and plenty of vegetables. with that i dont have any juices in box, i stick to still water plenty of that during my diet, and on day i woke up and look at myself and i notice a difference in my face, and i ws saying to myself i look different, but wat is different about me, and thats when it hit me, the dark circle under my eyes were getting lighter, before they were very dark, it was the first thing u could see on me before u see my face, and even my partner and friend start saying to me, the dark circle under your eye is fading away" and i said "i know" and from ever since, i not only stick to my diet for loosing weight but look at it for my dark circle not to come back, from then i never take sugar again, and i keep salt to a minium. its been over a year now since i my dark circle has minimize and never get back to the darkness it use to be. i remend alot of to try this for a 3 months and see how it goes, cut away from sugar totally and drink plenty of water, really alot of water. replace your sugar with sweenter if you have to have something sweet, keep away from fatty food and red meat, i only stick to chicken fish and veg, and come back and let me knw your result please, it work for me and i am sure it will work for you. Name: jodi Country: usa Comment: Hey, I ordered Hollywood Eye Magic and I've only been using it for a few days, but it's really helping. My circles were dark purple and they've faded to a dark pink color - several shades lighter. Supposedly Hollywood Eye Magic is intended more for puffiness and wrinkles, but I don't really have those problems and it's working wonders to lighten my dark circles. I'll update you if they get even better. I paid about $90 for it including shipping, but apparently the one little bottle is a year's supply.

Name: Amani Country: england Comment: Sally, I went on to few sites about Hollywood Eye Magic and so far people have said it's quite good although it i targeted more at wrinkles and puffy eyes, but still alot of people said it made a huge difference to their dark circles. Go on to You Tube and type in Hollywood Eye Magic and see what you think. Bdw Sally do Yuo know what shops sells it in the UK and what's the price like? Name: amani Country: england Comment: Remember a few months ago I said I was gonna try Dark Circle Lser Treatment and let you no how it goes? Well it's crap!!! Waste of money I paid £600 and not to mention the travel fare to Manchester 8 times!! Although my dark cicles look much better straight after a tratment session it doesn't last!!

The only person who knows how to heal your dark circles is you. Everyone has different cures, because everyone is different. I think that if we believe we can find our own cure...we will. What the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind of man can achieve. Name: saf Country: australia Comment: hey i came across this site and i Too have dark circles underneath my eyes and was looking for some tips i once was talking to this lady who was a beauty consultant for dior she told me that to get rid of the circles ( if your not born with them)is peel a potatoe mash it up and with the juices simply pat them on your eyes and let it dry she said you should see results within 2 months ive never came around doing it but i hpe this remade can help you out Name: Marjorie Country: usa Comment: well I am 13 and I have dark circles, and I get 9 to 10 hours of sleep, and I eat right too, so how do I get rid of them Name: watashi Country: india Comment: hi.can some one tell me how to use rose water for dark circles.do we have to use it directly or mix with water and after how much time do we have to wash it of.plz help.thanks Name: Pooja Country: india Comment: use this info at ur own risk: i can not say what works for me will definietly work for u.this has helped me more than any cream/gels etc i have ever bought and spent lots of money on. i came across on earthclinic website that somebody got rid of their skin cancer using hydrogen peroxide 3% by taking a cotton swab and soaking it in the hydrogen peroxide and applying it to their face. i tried this on my dark circles several times a day bt plzzzzzzzzzz do not put this onto ur eyelashes or let it go inside ur eye. and plzzzzzzzzzz make sure it is 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide NOT 35% or any higher concentration. be patient and u will start to see results after a week an a half. make sure to soack the dark circles in hydroegn peroxide and it will sting for a while bt the results r worth it Name: jadid Country: england Comment: Hi P, i used Nur76 for about two months but it didn't do anything for my circles.

Name: gfdg Country: india Comment: fgfd Name: WAKE UP Country: other Comment: CHEMICAL PEELS WILL NOT REMOVE YOUR DARK CIRCLES. WHY?? BECAUSE THE DARKNESS IS COMING FROM WAY UNDERNEATH YOUR SKIN AND JUST SHOWING THROUGH THE TOP LAYERS OF YOUR THIN EYE SKIN.

Name: dark circles Country: usa Comment: I am 25 have had darck cisrlces since I was 15. They ruin my life. I hate waking up in the morning after a great 8 hour sleep feeling wide awake until I ook in the mirror. ughh i look like I'm dying with very dark circles under the eyes. People always tell me how tired I look or stare at the circles instead of into my eys. It makes me feel like I'm not a person. Anyways I could go on forever about how horrible these are. I have tried everything...creams DO NOT WORK,. I eat healthy, get great sleep, nobody in my family has them so I don't know why I do. I have consulted with many plastic surgeons but they tell me there is nothing the can do. I met one though that injects fat under the eys which I am considering. I have an appt next week with another surgeon who injects restalyn nder the eye as its a natural filler. DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE GETTING PLASTIC SURGERY FOR THEI DARK CIRCLES??IF SO WHAT METHOD DID YOU US AND WHAT ARE THE RESULTS??

Name: jay Country: usa Comment: Hey i just wanted to write something on here i have not been on this in a while i remember the las time i wqas on here i was talking about dark circles and what you can do well i did have surgury about a year and a half ago and it was good for a while it really helped but time has past and they are back now it oculd be because i did not follow recovery well or it could be that i went tanning by the way do not tan! You can ask any dermatalogist its will make the circles darker. any way i am stuck wiht the same problem again but i will say that surgury help but its alot of money and wont get rid of everthing all topgether. anyway im stuck wiht thbuis annoying problem again so if anyvosy knows anything that can help share what you have used and how well its work i think thats the only way all of us can hep this problem. Name: DX Country: england Comment: Both corners of eyes. Name: optimistic Country: other Comment: I have gone through all d comments on this db, I found a lot of different ways to treat dc’s. The most important thing z that those who were giving a lot of new information have left d db, the most important of them was “Hope”. Sooner or later he will join this board again, I really appreciate his contributions at this board……I have finally concluded that v have 2 root out d cause of dc’s first. If v think that dc’s r cz of hereditary reason, still v can cure them….i will definitely mail my problems 2 Hope aswell. I do have dc’s since from childhood bt they have become dark brown when I was in college almost 6 yrs have passed. I am not feeling any inferiority complex but still I want 2 cure them…..my eyes r dark brown sunken n my stomach z upset(d same moment when my dc’s got worsen),so they r interlinked. Apart from that, I recently noticed d white thread like worms in my stools. After going through this article am going to finalise how am going 2 treat myself n by the way my doctor after different prescriptions has concluded that am suffering from Zn deficiency n now my stools r normal. Am also taking medicine against d parasites. So I hope am going to cure my problem n lets hope that HOPE z going 2 b on d db again…..bye Name: Kirsty Country: southafrica Comment: I hav started to get very small red dots on myunder eye. which corner the outer corner of ur eye? started to get red?

Name: Riffi Country: malaysia Comment: to vanish these dc's would really be a miracle 4 m.am searching 2 find out d solution.i think my dc's r coz of genetic susceptibility.okkkkk.if all of us hav dc's then doesn't matter.v shouldn't b so much conscious.right Name: anita Country: usa Comment: I bought Chrysin and have been using it for about a week. I think my dark circles are caused by 2 things veins showing thru and leaking blood and pigmetation. I would say that my dark circles are less red/purple but they is still brown pigment. So for veins it seems to slightly help but for pigmentation not so much. Name: Adiety Country: australia Comment: Hey u can apply mint paste on the dark circle keep for half hour & wash off,there will be mild burning sensation, but it helps a lot. Also while going to bed at night apply mixture of honey & almong oil taken in equal quantities. Try it out and do tell me ur views Name: rajiv Country: australia Comment: Yes kirsty keep using it as my dc's getting lightened were only noticed i think 3 and a half weeks later Name: DX Country: england Comment: Kristy,Please dont get demotivated and keep on using this,you will see visible results in one month or so.No cream can remove DC overnight.

Name: Kirsty Country: southafrica Comment: Im trying repcillin. its been about 2 weeks but i dont see any results yet Name: Jyoti Country: england Comment: btw is anybody else trying repcillin? went onto their site... pretty interesting. Name: Jyoti Country: england Comment: sori i forgot to tell u though that the chrysin only reduced my dc's it DID NOT get rid of them though the girl on the other forum who used it sed it got rid of hers. bt mine were only reduced. i am also thinking of trying repcillin bt it seems slightly expensive for me and DX how effective is this thing called repcillin? Name: Jyoti Country: england Comment: I used to use any cream i had at home no specific cream sometimes ponds cream and sometimes avon cream i had. bt it doesnt matter which cream u use. the chrysin is in powder form. it takes 3 weeks to see initial results and then after a couple of months ur dc's will eventually fade away. another girl on the other forum for her it took 3 weeks for her dc's to go away bt im assuming her dc's were a lot lighter than mine. how can u tell if ur dc's r due to pigmentation? Name: DX Country: england Comment: Jyoti,in which form did you use chrysin,is it in powder form or cream? Which skin cream did you use it and how much time it took to clear ur DC,were they due to pigmentation. Name: At all costs Country: usa Comment: I have severe dark circles, as many of you might have or you wouldn't be in this board. Again, yes I've tried a lot of things, but I may be naive.

DX r u going to try this? Name: Visiting Singapore Country: usa Comment: Btw, sleeping ten hours a day doesn't help in improving dark eyes! *sigh* I've given up hope on trying to remedy my permanent dark eyes...I'd advice investinbg in a really good concealer and concealer brush...oh and always wear foundation after the concealer and touch up with loose powder to give it a natural look. Name: Visiting Singapore Country: usa Comment: Hi Panda Girl, I suffer from terrible dark eye circles and so doe smy mum. For mothers day, I bought her the MTM Japan dark eye removal gel...and it removed her panda eyes by 60%...mine only imroved by 10 percent sadly...so I guess it really works on some, and doesn't on others!

DX how much of ur dc's have eliminated? to speed up the process try adding the chrysin wt do u say? Name: Jyoti Country: england Comment: Hylexin doesnt work cs it has soooo little of chrysin in it cs it is mixed with sooo many other things bt if u get this pure chrysin it will be more concentrated and just add any cream of ur choice to it Name: birappa Country: india Comment: ihave dark circles under my eyes what should iuse Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: hi Jyoti, You said Hylexin doesn't work but it contains Chrysin, the ingredient you say does work. Why is that? It is a stronger form of the ingredient? Name: Jyoti Country: england Comment: do not waste money on products like hylexin and vit K creams. they do not work and they cost a lot of $$$. the only thing i have had success with is the following and its cheap! i read from another forum about somebody whose dark circles went when they bought chrysin the active compound in hylexin from skinactives website. it cost only 10$ and im realy happy with the results. this msg board is not allowing me to post the links of the websites. bt type in the following in google and click the first link: any good products for dark circles and acne. in this forum another people used this same idea u js need to mix the chrysin with any cream u hav at home and apply it to ur eyes. u cn go to the skinactives websiteclick on their product list. its called chrysin.

Name: Joanne Country: england Comment: Rajiv when you say you applied the repcillin did you rub it in as well so it absorbs? How often did you apply it? Name: Rajiv Country: australia Comment: wow so many posts. no i am not promoting any product it is upto u if u want to buy it or not. Thats why i wanted to know if somebody else was getting the same results as me. i remember that somebody made a comment after about 3 weeks about the DC's so thats how i know they were getting lighter. as mine were dark they took about 3 and a half months i think to go cnt remember exactly to be honest. bt i think urs are getting lighter at a faster pace than mine maybe urs are lighter than mine and also i did apply the repcillin more often than you. Name: Trisha Country: england Comment: if you look at DX statement now that meladerm was not as effective yet in his previous claims he said that they reduced his dc's by 40% and js before he has said that repcillin also reduced them by 40% but is nt as effective Name: DX Country: england Comment: Well,I am not promoting or alluring anyone to purchase any product.My DC are also very dark black but as I told that they have lightened to some extent after using repcillin.Meladerm was not as effective as this cream.I also want to ask Rajiv that after how long his DC completely vanished.

Name: newbie Country: england Comment: You can change your diet all you want but if you dont fix the problem you will not have success.Why do you think all your friends can eat and drink what ever they want.There insides are so strong that nothing penetrates it.people with health problems have leaky gut,but the problem is nobody knows the proper way to fix it.here is how you fix it take 75 mg of zinc carnosine 10 mg of biotin and 2000 to 10000 of msm and within one month your leaky gut will be cured and your dark circles will be gone without changing your eating habits....Good luck Name: Tanya Country: australia Comment: I'm caucasian and have pale skin. My dark circles are medium coloured, not overly dark. I've found that if I stop drinking caffeine (Coffee, Tea, Green Tea, Cocoa) for 2 weeks and keep up with my usual diet of 5 serves of vegetables and 2 serves of fruit a day (1 serve = 1/2 a cup), my dark circles clear up. My face also looks fresher and younger, probably because caffeine prevents your body from absorbing nutrients and takes Vitamin B out of your body. I've read that if you have dark circles, it shows you are deficient in Vitamin B. With the fruit and vegetables, I vary these, and make sure I'm not just eating the same types each day (This is standard advice you'll see anywhere in relation to fruit and vege intake).

Country: usa Comment: hi gus i have he similar problem you guys do i have these dark circle since like the 4th grade it started on one eye then it sorta of drifted over to the other one it now looks like i've been punched in the eye its hereditary they say does anyone have a simlar problem to mine. Has anyone tried MELADERM I want to know if it works for hereditary hyperpigmentation too. Name: Jadid Country: england Comment: Hi guys, I just came across two products for getting rid of dark circles. One is an eye gel and the other are eye detox capsules, they are to be used together for best results. They are a bit expensive, about £45 for both, but the site has information on clinical trials etc and it mentions that dark circles are linked to the lymphatic and vascular system which i have read about before. If anyone wants to check it out just search for Talika. Let me know what you think. Name: jas Country: england Comment: gina have you had any success with the laser treatment. i have dark circles and i use emu oil/almond oil that lightened the severity a little and now just maintains the colour. Name: Guy in London Country: england Comment: I also tried Cellular Lipo-Sculpting Eye Gel from La Prairie before which helps with the swelling but doesn't last once you stopped using it Name: Guy in London Country: england Comment: Chanel Eye-tonic helped for me to make them fade about 50 % in a couple of weeks. It's a big reputable company and I heard they put lots of research into this. Costs around 32 pounds. Avons Lighten Up is cheaper but not so much effective. Name: Dark Circles Country: usa Comment: Charles Silverman N.D suggest! Home remedies for dark circles under eyes Vitamin A in excess: Excess vitamin A or an overdose of Retin-A is very likely to cause liver problems, which can cause dark circles under eyes. Learn how to control your vitamin A levels and how to heal the liver naturally and you will be on your way to a healthier body and radiant face skin without dark circles. Excess sugar: Sugar is the enemy for people suffering severe dark circles. Research about the action of insulin shows that sugar can lead not only to weight problems, but also skin problems, through inflammatory responses as well as their effect on protein which can age the skin and the body prematurely through a process called glycation. Inflammation leads to eye puffiness and dark circles. Find out which foods are highest in sugar, which are most damaging and how to stay away from them. Salty foods: Cut down your daily intake of salt. Salt produces fluid retention this increases the pressure in the small capillaries in your eye area aggravating your dark circles. It is very important to know what an acceptable level of sodium is and how much you should cut from your diet in order to see improvements in your dark circles. In the How to Remove Dark Circles Naturally Report I show you how to control these 3 bad habits plus a let you know about the other 5 ways of life that are giving you dark circles and destroying your self-esteem. I’m sure you want answers to the following questions: What is the cause of dark circles around the eyes ? How does one remove dark circles under eyes ? Is there a cure for dark circles under the eyes ? Are there any home remedies for dark under eye circles ? One thing is clear, you are sick and tired of standing in front of the mirror looking like you went head to head for 12 rounds with a professional boxer. Don’t waste any more money. Let’s be honest, most products out there are expensive and they don’t work. They ineffectively disguise the problem, they don’t treat dark circles. And the ones that claim to remove dark circles have many side effects. Hydroquinone cream for dark circles is one example. The side effects are worse than the dark circles itself. hydroquinone cream causes adverse reactions like dryness and fissuring of paranasal and infraorbital areas, erythema, stinging and hypersensitivity (localized contact dermatitis). Do you want any of these side effects on your face? I don’t think so. A sad reality Dark circles tell everybody around you that there is something wrong with you, that you are not well, that you are not as attractive as you used to be, or that you look much older than you really are. And the sad reality is that it’s true, dark circles make you look exhausted, ill, old and depressed. Let’s face it, we really hate to walk around looking half dead and half sick. That is why we spend so much time covering them up or at least trying. How many times you wished people would stop asking the same questions over and over? Are you felling well? Did something happen? You look sad. Did you get any sleep last night? And let’s not get into those embarrassing comments from friends and family that everybody finds amusing…Everybody but you. Since I started in this field back in 1979 as a Naturopath and Herbalist Doctor; people have come to me with this problem thousands of time, so you are not alone.

Name: DX Country: england Comment: Hi , I am taking lecithin from last 20 days and have not seen any exciting results.Has anyone tried Meladerm cream?In this article below ASH has tried it and got rid of her DC,can anyone please suggest me? Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Aryann, please keep me updated, if this works for you, I will have some hope :-). Do you have a personally email that you don't mind sharing so you can let me know about the progress. Thanks. Name: Aryaan Country: usa Comment: Hi Anita, Thanks for your response. I guess it's no harm scheduling an appointment with the NYC doc. I do think mine are due to pigmentation. I'm quite fair skinned so the DC's appear much more obvious. I also have an appoitment with Dr. Battle in DC, he specializes in skin treatment for Ethnic people. He's done some research on Lasers for darker skinned people at Harvard. I'm hoping that this doc answers my prayers. Thanks! Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Aryaan, I also live in nyc and went to see a dermatologist in the New york area. Try Cameron Rokhsar MD, (his website is comesticlaserskinsurgery) and ask for a consultation on the fraxel laser. I actualy went in and he says if mine are due to pigment there can be something done about it, but after looking at my he says mine are due to viens, I honestly they are due to both. Since i don't have the money right now, and you do, you should try him out and let me know how it goes. If it works I will find the money. Oh and yes I am of indian descent too. Name: GINA Country: england Comment: Yes, Anita, it is a lot of money. As I said, look under your eyes carefully to see if there is pigmintation. In the UK I found the laser for £750 for 5 sessions and £25 per session after, so the whole thing will to under a £1000. What you should concentrate on is finding cheaper laser treatment, it may take you a while but I bet you'll get there! Name: Concerned Country: canada Comment: I just have two comments to say. Firs, both Ms. Chang and Dermatologist are full of sh*t. It's more than obvious that Dermatologist is not a Dermatologist. To go into that profession it requires plenty of schooling, and no form of doctors make grammatical or spelling errors as much as this fake. Secondly, if some one did have a magical cure for DC's they would not charge for it, they would be overjoyed that they found it and would want to share it with anyone whom they could help. Try Vita-K Solution for Dark Circles. Lastly I'm a graduate student and know what I'm talking about, unlike the infamous Ms. Chang and Dermatologist who are obviously full of sh*t. Thanks, I'm out. Name: Aryaan Country: usa Comment: Hi All, This is my first post, so please do take the time to read through my rather long post and share your valuable suggestions. I'm a 28 year old male of Indian decent with a chronic problem of dark eyes. 2 years back I had close to zero dark circles. Now they are large, ugly and get me down each time I look in the mirror. I'm an extremely outgoing person who has started shying away from people and rarely make eye contact in fear that folks will see my dark circles. I've tried several things with little or no avail. 1. Eye creams- Hylexin, Steven Victor Eye Repair Kit ($200-waste), Dermalex MD, Desonide, Eumosene 2. Vitamans A 8000 iu, D 400 iu 3. Microdermabrasion & Chemical Peel (performed by Dr. Kovak in Chicago)- I think the chemical peels made a difference but the Microdermabrasion really messed it up. The first sitting left a wound which my derm assures me that micro can never leave a scar it is a wound which takes time to heal esp. for brown people. This resulted in a solid dark line below my already dark circles (which were beginning to fade), so basically my eyes look like large black blocks. 4. Antioxidants 5. Ayurvedic- Extracts of rose, lotus, green tea, aloe vera 6. I've started wearing blank glasses so they cover the severity of my dark circles I've tried all of the above with little or no success. Although, I never tried one given treatment for an extended period of time (0ver 3 months) Things I have not tried 1. Arnica 2. Laser 3. NAC 4. Make up or Concealing creams I live in the NYC area now. Is there anyone that can help? Financially I have little restrictions and am willing to spend money to get rid of this. 1. Does anyone know a good derm in the NYC area? 2. Has anyone had success with laser, esp. folks of Indian descent? I hear it is not for everyone. 4. Is there anything else I should try? 5. Lastly, how long do you guys think it takes for this to fade? And does it fade at all? Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Gina, I actually agree with you that most likely internal tablets and external solutions such as creams can't really help much. THe price would be around $4,000, that is alot for me, and especially if it doesn't work, and I havne't gotten a positive response from any doctor that it would lighten them up a bit at least. IF all else fails, I will try laser. Thanks Dave, I am actually going to try Dandelion root now, and if that doesn't work, will go back to lecithin. Name: GINA Country: england Comment: I must apologise, I misread and thought you meant that the whole thing would cost $750... btw CO2 lasers are old fashioned and California is expensive, I bet you'll be able to find somewhere a lot cheaper. Name: GINA Country: england Comment: Well, Anita.. all I can say is, if you never try laser you will never know. Yes it is expensive, but we all waste $750 on every-day things over a few months.. and without realising it, trying other methods is going to add up to the same amount. Look at yourself in the mirror and pull the skin of your eyes and look to see if you can spot any vains.. if so then you have a blood vessel problem and some lasers can seal them.. I know that you are worried, but you must be logical. If you have pigmentation and leaking blood vessels do think that tablets are going to lighten and seal them? Will creams cause a miraculous chemical reaction to solve the problem? The answer to both those questions is NO. Laser is the only logical way because it burns the pigmentation, it's like bleaching your hair. Now, it hasn't worked wonders for me, but I have minimal improvement and still need more treatement.. so we shall see! Name: Dave Country: australia Comment: i think its the combination of lecithin with cod liver oil thats making it work as the lecithin is needed to absorb the fatty acids in the cod liver oil. do not take cod liver oil tablets take the oil and take about 4 tablespoons a day u need to take a high dose. 15 days is too early to notice an improvement if ur dark circles r dark. please be patient this is not an overnite cure Name: Izumi Mahmoud Country: middleeast Comment: Nedolgo tolko zhili byl. Izumi Mahmoud. Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Also just wanted to mentioned the California doctor uses the C02 laser but the new york doctor uses the Fraxel laser. With the c02, you only need 1 treatment, it is quite intense and takes 2 weeks to recover. Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Go to the website of bermanmd. This site does not let me type it out. click on laser resurfacing treatment, then click on dark circles before and after. and take a look and the before and after of an indian/middle eastern patient. This is at the California Doctor's clinic I mentioned in my previous post Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Dave, I'm not taking cod liver tablets, should i be? and if so,how many? Also where would you find the powder form. Gina, I went to a laser doctor in california who said my circles were due to pigmentation and he said using the CO2 laser would work, then I went to a second doctor in New york, and he said my circles were due to blood vessels, and nothing could be done about it. I don't know who to believe, it would cost be $750 a treatment as well. I am trying all other methods before i go that route, I might speak to one more doctor to see if its pigment or blood vessels. Name: DX Country: england Comment: Hi Dave, I am taking 9 lecithin 1200mg capsules for last 15 days and still have got no results.I have also very dark circle,but hoping it will do something,for how many days have you taken them and r u taking them wid cod liver oil? Name: Dave Country: australia Comment: anita take 9 capsules and also instead if u cn find the powder form it is better. also how dark r urs? and are u also takin cod liver oil with that too? Name: Gina Country: england Comment: Anita, I'm having the yellow laser treatment. My circles are due to pigmentation and blood vessels (I'm half indian and half cambodian). I have had four sessions so far (I pade £750 for 5) but I probably need another 3. I find the treatment a little painful, it's like having a hot needle pricking you, but it only lasts for 2 mins Name: Anita Country: usa Comment: Gina, what kind of laser treatment are you undergoing? How many have you had? Dave, I took 6 lecithin capsules a day for a month, no change. I am now using Rootsherbal Dark circles solution which is an external treatment, been using for a week now, no change yet. Name: Gina Country: england Comment: Hi, I am currently having laser treatment at the Fulham broadway clinic, I have one more session to go... and my circles don't really look that much better.

Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Hi DX, Yep i went to see a dermatologist at Bupa, he basically told me to try a vitamin K cream in the morning and a Retin A at night... which i did with no change whatsoever (infact Retin A seemed to make my eye's worse)... it might work for some people tho... like i said before everyone is different! Name: DX Country: england Comment: Hi Danny Boy, So instead of trying so many product,u shud consult a good dermatologist,what do u say? Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Hi DX, yep i-balm is the only product i've had results with so far and ive tried probably 50 or so products... yep cucumber eye gel was the first thing i tried, that did nothing at all (apart from a nice cooling effect) ... and the same thing with aloe-vera! ...it might be worth trying though as everyone seems to respond to different things but i havnt heard anyone have good results with cucumber or aloe-vera yet! Name: DX Country: england Comment: Hi DannyBoy, Have u got any results from I-balm coz I have not experienced any effect,have u used aloe-vera and cucumber gel any time? Name: Ashley Country: england Comment: it says side effects are thin skin but i didnt experience that at all infact i didnt see any side effects. Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Thanks Ashley, i might give it a try then... what are the side effects exactly and what side effects did you personally experience? Name: Ashley Country: england Comment: i have used it and had success. i no its side effects are not good but u get that with all medications and just because it has side effects stated it doesnt mean u will necessarily get the side effects. its like using a medication for acne it will get rid of the acne but there are minor side effects like with all medicines. betnovate is for the skin anyway. Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Hi Ashley, Correct me if i'm wrong but isnt it dangerous to use betnovate under the eye... according to the manufacturers it shouldnt even be used on the face let alone under the eye!!! Have you personally used it?

I have been taking 3 a day for 3 days, is that enough? They haven't gotten darker yet.

Name: ice Country: singapore Comment: hi gr8dalmuti, i think is one of the ingredient in i-balm. i-balm contain essential oils. curenntly i am using it. because i am sufferin from dry eyes, i quite like the oil content of i-balm. actually i am using day and night. it has not yet show result since i jus started it 3 days ago. but hopefully all turn out well ya. cheers. Name: gr8dalmuti Country: usa Comment: Try Google search for Helichrysum "eye circles" and you should find some useful information. Basically you will find that Helichrysum Italicum essential oil, diluted properly, can be effective for healing the dark circles. The trick is to figure out the proper dilution, which I'm not sure of yet. I believe that sweet almond oil is a good inexpensive carrier oil to use for the dilution. You need to be very careful when applying your solution not to get it in your eyes. Start with a week Helichrysum Italicuum solution, because your skin around your eyes is very sensitive.

Name: bob Country: usa Comment: search google darkcircleforum to discuss dark circles and get some great tips!

Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Hi Lona, well it's up to you if you wish to buy it or not! i'm still using i-balm as its reduced by circles by quite a lot, but like i said b4.. it doesnt work miracles and i'm still trying to find a way to eradicate them completely! I am using i-balm once daily and ive recently started taking hyaluronic acid and Neem capsules.... i'll let you all know how i get on! Name: lona Country: other Comment: DannyBoy do you still recommending me to buy i-product or is it useless? Name: bluefish Country: england Comment: I too have had dark circles all my life, and diet, sleep exercise all have little or no effect. (Although not drinking enough water does make them worse.) I am thinking of trying something I have just seen on TV. Gale Hayman Lighten Up Eye Cream is expensive, but if you order it from QVC (probably only if you live in US UK or Germany where they have QVC) they give you thirty days to try it and you can send it back if it doesn't work for you and they give you your money back even if you've used most of it! They mentioned that one of the active ingredients was hylexin. If I do try it, I'll come back and say what happened. In the meantime, I thought maybe someone out there would like to know about it. Name: Wizz Country: usa Comment: I'm not sure if it wont work but capsules are absorbed better. Wen u eat the hyaluronic acid crush it maybe it mite help bt try and find the capsule form. Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Oh dear!!! Wizz, i bought hyaluronic acid in tablet form... will it not work for me then? whats the difference?... i bought the tablets cus it says on the bottle that it has gone through a hydrolyzation process to give it low molecular weight (to increase absorbsion) Name: Wizz Country: usa Comment: I think it shud make ur skin thicker. Im not sure but try hyaluronic acid in capsule form not in tablet form. Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: ...oh forgot to say; ive been on hyaluronic acid (50mg 2 times a day) for 3 days now... will keep you all updated with my progress!

Name: Laura Country: england Comment: Hi i bought eyesential from a company called certified natural uk, its best thing ive tried Name: Wizz Country: usa Comment: i know hyaluronic acid helps make collagen. Hope that helps. However there are some brands of hyaluronic acid that dont work as they use the large molecule and not the small.

I guess only time will tell if it eradicates them completely!! Name: lona Country: other Comment: DannyBoy what kind of cream did you use? Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Hi Suda, beleive me, home remedies just dont work... but its a fact that a high percentage (50-70%) of people from India (such as yourself) suffer from IDA iron deficiency anemia and this causes dark circles around the eyes!

Name: Danny Boy Country: england Comment: Just a quick update... ive stopped using Ocuderm now as i dont really think it did anything for me... i-balm is working great though... after about 4 weeks use; it has reduced the darkness by about 40-50% which i'm very happy with! i just hope it continues to work!

Name: NTM Country: usa Comment: Another cure for dark circles: 1. Sleep 2. no Alcohol or drugs 3. injectable fillers (no joke) Dark circles are mainly caused by the skin under the eyes becoming thinner as we age and thus you are more likely to see the capillaries and veins. A more costly alternative is to get Restalyne fillers under the eyes to "fill in" the hollows. I read that in New Beauty Magazine. Name: NTM Country: usa Comment: Hylexin worked wonders for me. Although the results were not very dramatic they were enough that with a little tiny bit concealer I was fine. Now that I ran out of Hyelxin I see a BIG difference--so much that I am heading to pick it up after work. It may not work for some--but I saw inprovements. It's expensive though and there are new creams out there that are maybe even Better. So-do your research.

I have spoken to various laser clinics in London and surely enough the Fulham clinic are the only ones in UK who are brave enough to laser dark circles. All other clinics warned me that often lasers aren't effective and its a waste of money and too risky!! In the US...it seems that lasers are def. combatting the dark circles from what Ive seen of the many websites that exist. I recently had an email consultation with Dr Seckel (who is one of the top cosmetic surgeons in the US!). He specialises in filling in hollow eyes which are the cause of most dark circles. He saw my pix and felt that I should have fat repositioned underneath rather then have the YAG laser done as the Fulham clinic suggest. I am VERY eager to avoid actual surgery..plus travelling to US will be tough due to work commitments. So I've decided to put aside my nerves and book my first laser treatment with the Fulham clinic. Its expensive but hey if it works to even remove 40% of the darkness I'll be happy!!! I'll let you all know how it goes. Bruce..how is your treatment progressing?

Name: anna campbell Country: australia Comment: Marty. i have had eye surgery above and under the eyes in february. i would be aware that if your girlfriend has fat underneath her eyes as well as darkness then having this proceedure done can make the skin loose. and Then the drama of tightening the skin becomes more major than the Dark cirlcles. I found that Retin A did cancel out a bit of the dark cirlce. and i don't get it as much. I am told by Laser doctor that having Portrait lasering the beneath the skin will tighten the skin and crows feet and also help with the Darkness under the eyes. I do look alot more fresher beneath the eyes. BUT BEFORE YOUR GIRLFRIEND HAS ANY SURGERY DO YOUR HOMEWORK, BECAUSE TO ALLIMINATE ONE THING CAN CAUSE ANOTHER. i am just saying this so you cover all your bases first. Dark circles are also something i have had my whole life. and my girls also. I guess i feel the retin A cream has help during the day. still i get darker at night. i hope this is some help.

Name: Anu Country: usa Comment: Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, Hylexin from the Bremann Research Lab is going to heal your Dark Circles from the inside out. It reduces the leakege in the eye which causes Dark Circles. People who use it the right way will find results. You must apply a very small amount under your eye with a tapping motion and gently - no harsh rubbing it in. Apply to a washed face in morning and night. Dont rub your eyes or wash it off by crying. The area must be left alone. You will see results within a week. Its worth the $95 bucks. One tube goes a long way, mine lasted upto 6 months. Take vitamins such as Centrum or Oil of Olay, drink juices and water, eat healthy, get 8 hours of sleep every night, do meditation, and work out 3 times a week. You will feel better and look great.

Name: mary Country: usa Comment: UCKHHHHH! I WANT TO JUST DIE COS OF THESE ENORMOUS DARK CIRCLES UNDER MY EYES. They are genetic as opposed to having come as a result of a bad lifestyle. I am a true Panda. That should be my name. Ugly. Even an Eribium laser hasnt got rid of the darkness. There is only plastic surgery left for me. I am still young (early 20s) but shall I do it? Name: Zoie Country: usa Comment: Hey im Indian though i live in the USA. my dad is Indian too. im just wondering if the genetics are that indians get dark circles, because i have seen a lot of indians with them. i dont know if anything will work on them because they're genetic. im just so glad im not the only one with this problem. anyone have any comments about this?

Name: help Country: england Comment: has anybody tried home remedies and has anything worked?ive had dark circles since i was little as i got very ill when i was younger and the circles have not gone..I hate them..especially when people tell me there dark Name: interested Country: england Comment: I note the comment on Ocuderm being a waste of money. For UK users, having now tried Ocuderm for 2 weeks (see earlier comments)my wife has noticed a positive difference - but it has not been a complete cure. I don't think there's any one thing that will help everyone. Sometimes I reckon diet or lifestyle is the key, sometimes not. Sometimes one cream will help, sometimes not. Anyway, as Ocuderm does seem to have been of some use in my wife's case, I will as promised give the details of the UK retailers I used. I can't recall their website address but they are called NHB Limited, 2 Manor Close, Minchinhampton, Glos. GL6 9DG. It was �56 (cheque to NHB Limited) which wasn't cheap but I've seen it sold for more - and that price did include P&P but it did take a week to reach us. I did see another site which offered next day delivery at �59.99. I wonder if Danny Boy has anything to add on Ocuderm in the UK as he was also using it?

Within' two weeks you see the difference. Name: hmm Country: france Comment: noooooo guys stop him!! you cannot and i won't let you so :P these surgerys are so risky and how can it possibly remove the shadows. the only thing thatcan remove the shadows is a clean body. at least look into those flushes because you do something so rash! and expensive for a start lol . your eyes are the liver thats all you need to know. so think about it du drink? du smoke? what colour are your circles? Name: C Country: england Comment: I have decided to get a consultation with a plastic surgeon - saw a programme tonight where they could actually cut part of the muscle away from under your eye and thus reduce the shadow it causes. Maybe they could kind of stretch the skin a bit too so the dark line under the eye does not appear so 'concentrated' if you get what I mean. I have not heard of ONE person to say CATEGORICALLY that a specific eye cream has helped in the way that the problem no longer is a problem. One thing I always wonder, is how my DC's compare to others. I occasionally see others say in a shopping mall with DC's and I wonder if mine are that bad. Wouldn't you love to see yourself and realise what other people see? Or maybe not...! AAAAAAAAARRRRRGHHHH. I'm scared my girlfriend will realise how ugly they make me.. which I know is stupid but can't help it :( Name: Godiva? Country: india Comment: Have any one used the whitenning starter pack from Godiva?. I used it for the first week and my skin was so dry and started peeling off. My face now seems darker...Asked Godiva for explanations and still have no response yet. Very scared and disapointed... Name: ivy Country: australia Comment: I have been applying occuderm on my dark circles for the last 3 weeks and have not noticed any improvement. Will try to finish the whole jar and let you know the result. Name: hmm Country: france Comment: i'd look into liver flushes. i read liver is like anger the emotion and gallbladder is bitterness. sounds so freakin cool :D Name: Tilly Country: england Comment: My sympathies to everyone suffering with dark circles, as I am (and have been since I was 8; I'm now 34.)I have tried Hylexin and found it okay. The only reason I haven't got it again is that it's so expensive. I think our expectations of it are based on how expensive it is. If you are using it, persevere, follow the instructions and you should notice a difference after about 3 weeks. I'm saving up (!) to try Ocuderm, if I can get it here, but in the meantime, I'm going to try some natural remedies like cucumbers on the eyes and eating foods rich in vitamin K. I also have issues with sugar so I'm going to try and cut that out. For those who want to do a liver detox, milk thistle is a natural supplement which cleanses the liver. I hope you find this advice useful. Good luck everybody. Name: jojo Country: england Comment: my dark cirlces have gotten worse since i had my child. always look like i have been punched now. i eat healthily, drink 2 litres of water per day, excersise and get 8-9 hours sleep a night. my parents dont have them, so dont think its heretirory.

Name: tDark Circles Country: usa Comment: I found this site because I have and have had DARK CIRCLES since I have been born. Life is so very strange and I realize that dark circles are not so bad considering if I did not have them I NEVER would have did research and found a WHOLE WORLD out there then just here. I want to apologize for thinking so narrow minded and I applaud each and every human in this whole world. We are all the same in the end. GOD BLESS...... Name: dark circle Country: usa Comment: first of all STEVE from the USA is a total SCUM..... Now for the real subject I have had dark circles since I can remember and I am 44 yrs old. I was told at age 16 by the family doctor that it was hereidatary. I had no choice but to accept and try to cover up with alot of makeup. I have tried so many products to get rid of only to have put myself in debt. HELP..... I read that cucumber juice is supposed to help but could not find details.....

Did it work? What eye creams do work? Name: DannyBoy Country: england Comment: ...to respond to Joanne, circle clear didnt work for me either, nor have a heard it work for anyone for that matter!! ... i have tried loads of different eye creams tho and so far nothing has worked but i've been doing a lot of research lately and the best way to rid them is using a retinol based cream at night and a vitamin k cream in the morning, I have been currently using this regaime for about 2 days now so it's obviously too early to say if it's working or not but i will let everyone know how i get on! I am using Roc Retin-Ox at night and Dermalogics Ocuderm in the morning!
