Apply Biluma Cream/ Kojivit Gel/ Kojic Cream for application once daily for 2 weeks. Then apply Cernor Kit everyday ( expensive but effective) for 1 month. Check blood test for Haemoglobin. Fruit Peels with Lactic / Glycolic acid to be done by a dermatologist near you .

Dark circles appear due to many reasons and like you mentioned one reason is hereditary where eyes are deep set and under eye area appears dark due to shadowing effect.
This is called "tear trough" which can be corrected with hyaluronic acid fillers. This is safe and effective treatment and results are instant.
If there is pigmentation along with tear trough we can do peels or Laser which depends on type of pigmentation.

Creams available for dark circles are not so effective
