Non-Surgical Treatment for Under Eye Bags and Dark Circles
Most people suffer from the progressive loss of fatty tissues under the eyes with time. This results in dark circles and under eye bags, which causes a person to look years older than their actual age. To help in dealing with these problems, hollow eyes treatment without surgery is done using fillers to provide effective and enduring effects. It is a highly effective procedure without the costs and complications of undergoing surgery.
What Causes Dark Circles Under the Eye?
It is vital to understand what is causing your dark circles and eye bags before any treatment is recommended. That is why trying to only use one surgery or cream when removing hollows under eyes might not work. Under eye bag removal without surgery is a comprehensive solution that is meant to address dark circles caused by:
- Hyperpigmentation – Caused by many genetic and environmental factors, hyperpigmentation results in a darker color forming under the patients’ eyes. Treatment may include laser resurfacing or an IPL photo facial. Chemical peels, bleaching creams, and laser further enhance the result.
- Hollow under eyes – Caused by age or genetic predisposition, some people start developing hollows under eyes, which creates a dark eyeshadow. Treatment to remove the eye shadowing may include using various under eye fillers like Radiesse, Restylane or Juvederm.
- Fatty bags below the eyes – When fat protrudes under the eyes, it may result in dark circles and shadows. For eye bag lift without surgery, fillers are usually recommended for smoothing out the skin and effectively addressing getting rid of bags under the eyes.
- Allergies – People with allergies can also develop dark circles due to sinus pressure and congestion.
How Is A Non-Surgical Lower Eyelid Lift Performed?
Several fillers to get rid of bags under the eyes including Juvederm are all part of the main options used to reduce the presence of eye bags during the eyelid lift without surgery. Botox and Dysport, as injectables, also play a role in improving the aging lower eyelid. The entire procedure is completed in roughly 20 minutes without any extensive recovery period. It is done with an aesthetic cream for a pain-free experience so that patients can easily carry on with their regular activities immediately after the non-invasive blepharoplasty.
The region in which volume loss is present is known as the tear trough region. It is below the eye and above the cheek next to the nose. To address the loss of volume in under eye hollows, a tear trough treatment is performed for eye lift without surgery. Generally, one syringe of tear trough filler is needed to improve the sunken eyes and under eye hollows. Restylane tear trough filler is one of the more popular tear trough fillers, however, Belotero tear trough filler is quickly becoming the preferred and best filler for tear trough.
