What causes it
What causes Eye Bags?
Aging
As we age, the skin around the eyes becomes thinner, and the muscles and tissues that support the eyelids weaken. Additionally, fat that normally sits around the eyes can move down to the lower eyelids, leading to puffiness and the appearance of bags.
Genetics
Some people are simply more prone to developing eye bags due to genetic factors. For example, some people may inherit a tendency for under-eye fat to bulge or have weaker skin elasticity in the eye area.
Fluid retention
Fluid can accumulate under the eyes due to a variety of reasons, such as excess salt intake, dehydration, or hormonal changes. This can lead to swelling and puffiness around the eyes.
Lack of sleep
Not getting enough sleep can cause fluid to accumulate in the eye area, leading to puffiness and bags under the eyes.
Eye bags are treated with a combination of lifestyle changes, home remedies and aesthetic procedures.
Treatment Options
Dermal filler is a gel-like substance injected beneath the skin where the main ingredient is Hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body. Dermal filler can add volume to sunken areas under the eye and at the same time mask the appearance of eye bags.
Eye bag removal surgery, also known as lower blepharoplasty, helps to correct loose skin, excess fat, and wrinkles of the undereye area. It involves removing fat deposits under the eyelids so that eyes appear fresher and brighter.
