Dark circles:age/fat: Dark circles under eyes can be due to aging changes, genetic skin predispositions of fat pad migration. Lack of sleep, stress, history of rubbing eyes can make it worse. If there is swelling, ask your md to be sure your kidney function is normal. Avoid excessive salt in take as it can make swelling under eyes more noticeable from pure water retention. See eyemd if nothing helps and want to remove.
