Bags under the eyes?
Although bags under the eyes are usually not a medical problem, they are a cosmetic problem for many of our clients. They can make the face look tired or sad. If you suffer from bags under your eyes, the eye surgeons at Looks Clinics can help you.
What causes bags under the eyes? Several factors can affect the appearance of the area between the lower eyelids and the cheeks:
- Age: Over time, due to the natural effects of the aging process, the cheeks can lose their youthful volume and fullness, causing the fat under the eyes to appear more prominent and give the appearance of “bags under the eyes.”
- Sun Damage: Excessive sun exposure and UV damage are harmful to the skin around the eyes, causing changes such as wrinkles, pigment changes and contour irregularities.
- Genetics: Bags under the eyes can run in certain families.
- Smoking causes bags under the eyes
Reduce the appearance of bags under the eyes. Our doctors treat bags under the eyes with a lower eyelid blepharoplasty. During the procedure, fat from under the eyelids is removed to create a better contour and a smoother transition between the under-eye area and the upper cheeks. Our doctors are careful not to remove too much tissue or fat, as this can create an unsatisfactory “hollow” result. We also take care to preserve the muscle responsible for blinking; we never sacrifice function and comfort for appearance. In some cases, we may use an internal approach, where the surgical incisions are made inside the eyelid so that there is no noticeable scarring. Even without this internal approach, scarring is barely noticeable.
Treating bags under the eyes requires exceptional skill and experience. Our team is certified and specialized with extensive experience in eyelid surgery. We are highly qualified to perform your treatment and strive to deliver exceptional results that exceed your expectations.
