Under-Eye Bags

Swelling or puffiness beneath the eyes caused by ageing, fluid retention, or lack of sleep

Under-Eye Bags

What Are They?

'Under-eye bags' refers to puffiness or swelling that can occur under the eyes. This can make the under-eye area appear swollen, bloated, and tired. Treatment options for under-eye bags include getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, managing allergies, using skincare products specifically formulated for the under-eye area, and, in severe cases, undergoing cosmetic procedures like chemical peels, fibroblast treatment, or dermal fillers.

What Causes Them?

Under-eye bags are a common cosmetic concern that can be caused by several factors, including genetics, ageing, allergies, dehydration, and lack of sleep. As we age, the skin under our eyes becomes thinner and loses elasticity, which can cause the fat pads under the eyes to bulge and create bags. Allergies, lack of sleep, and dehydration can also cause fluid to accumulate under the eyes, leading to puffiness. In some cases, under-eye bags can also be a sign of an underlying medical condition, such as thyroid or kidney problems.
