How to treat years old dark circles?

2018-10-25 12:14:06
I have developed intense dark circles since my college days. Now I am 28 and haven't been able to get rid of them. I have tried cucumber potatoes and other home remedies. Wherever I go it is the first thing that people notice. Can anyone pls tell me what is the root cause for these. Less hydration? Less haemoglobin? What deficiency causes them? I seriously want to get rid of them permanently. I have done a lot of research on the topic. None works. It makes me look older. 😔
