Under Eye Dark Circle Treatment in Thane & Mumbai
Dark circles can make you look tired even when you’re well-rested, and are often caused by a combination of factors that require a targeted, accurate diagnosis. At KP Dermatology, Thane, Dr. Prratyush More (MBBS, DDVL — 14+ years of clinical experience) offers customised treatment to restore a fresh, rested look around your eyes.
Because dark circles have multiple possible causes — pigmentation, thin skin revealing blood vessels, hollowing, or puffiness — a generic under-eye cream rarely addresses the actual cause. Dr. More begins with an accurate diagnosis to guide the right treatment.
Understanding Under-Eye Dark Circles
Dark circles can result from several distinct mechanisms — excess pigmentation (constitutional or post-inflammatory), vascular causes (visible blood vessels through thin under-eye skin), structural hollowing that creates shadowing, or fluid retention causing puffiness. Genetics, sleep patterns, allergies, and ageing can all contribute to their appearance.
Dr. Prratyush More carefully examines the under-eye area to determine which mechanism — or combination of mechanisms — is responsible for your dark circles, since pigmentation-based and vascular-based dark circles require very different treatment approaches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about dark circles, their causes, and treatment — answered by Dr. Prratyush More.
Why won't my dark circles go away no matter what cream I use?
Most over-the-counter eye creams are formulated generically and don’t address the specific cause of your dark circles — whether that’s pigmentation, visible blood vessels, or structural hollowing. Accurate diagnosis, which Dr. More provides at consultation, is essential for choosing an effective treatment.
Are my dark circles caused by lack of sleep?
Poor sleep can worsen the appearance of dark circles, particularly vascular and puffiness-related types, but genetics, allergies, and pigmentation are often the primary underlying causes. Dr. More will assess your specific situation rather than assuming sleep is the only factor.
Can dark circles be completely removed?
This depends on the underlying cause. Pigmentation-related dark circles often respond well to treatment, while structural or genetic dark circles may show more modest, gradual improvement. Dr. More will give you realistic expectations based on your specific diagnosis.
Is laser treatment safe for the delicate under-eye area?
Yes, when performed with appropriate settings and by an experienced dermatologist. Dr. More uses gentle, calibrated PicoWay® laser settings specifically suited to the thin, sensitive skin around the eyes.
How long before I see improvement?
Most patients notice gradual improvement within 4–8 weeks of consistent treatment. Since dark circles often have multiple contributing factors, achieving your best possible result may take a combination of approaches over a longer period.
