Aluma can help tighten the skin around the eyes. However, for most patients, dark circles are caused by the loss of fat underneath the eyes causing a shadow effect which looks like dark circles. For this I would
recommend doing Restylane to replenish the loss of volume. In doing so the dark circles would disappear.
