What can I do at home to reduce the appearance of eye bags?

Lifestyle and Skincare

There are several strategies to help reduce the appearance of under-eye bags.
These include:

• getting adequate sleep
• managing allergies
• staying hydrated
• using cold compresses
• reducing salt intake.

Additionally, some topical creams and serums containing ingredients like

• retinol
• vitamin C
• caffeine
• hyaluronic acid

may help with the appearance of eye bags.

Surgical Treatment

In severe cases, surgery is recommended. Surgical options for treating under-eye bags include procedures like blepharoplasty, which involves removing excess fat, skin, and muscle from the lower and/or upper eyelids. These procedures are typically performed by a surgeon. It’s crucial to discuss the potential risks, benefits, and recovery process with a qualified specialist before considering any surgical intervention.

Non-Surgical Treatment

In some cases, cosmetic procedures such as RF micro-insulated needling, or dermal fillers might be suggested.
