Eyebags are puffy or swollen areas under the eyes that can make you look tired or older. Often accompanied by dark circles, they can range in severity from mild puffiness to more pronounced bulges.
Eyebags are caused by various factors, including:
Skin loses elasticity and muscles under the eye weaken, leading to sagging and puffiness.
Family history can play a significant role in developing eye bags.
Excess fluid can accumulate under the eyes, often due to salty foods or hormonal changes.
Insufficient sleep can cause blood vessels to dilate, leading to dark circles and puffiness.
Allergic reactions can cause inflammation and swelling under the eyes.
Smoking and a poor diet can contribute to the development of eyebags by affecting skin health and circulation.
Eye bag removal treatments typically involve reducing or repositioning the fat and tightening the skin under the eyes. The method used depends on the severity of under-eye bags and the patient’s needs. Here’s how various methods work:
