Bags Under Eyes ? Find out how to remove them.

Bags under eyes are a common problem, especially as people age.Not just to they make a person look tired but they also make you look older than what you really are.




What are the causes of these eye bags?

One reason is due to the natural ageing process. As we get older the skin loses its elasticity and with the fat under the eyelid the skin stretches outwards causing bags to form.Quite often if your mother or father suffered with this problem then you are more likely to have the same condition yourself.

Other things which accelerate the appearence of bags under eyes are lack of sleep, excess sodium(salt)intake, water retention and also allergic reactions.

Recommended treatments for bags under your eyes include the following

- cool eye compresses (teabags/ cucumber slices)

- good healthy diet with adequate water intake and reduced salt

- reduction in caffeine and alcohol consumption

- plenty of rest.

All of these treatments individually,or a combination of them are effective for relief of eye bags.

Other medical procedures which can help are Botox injections(lasts just 6/7months), or for a more permanent fix a surgical eyelid lift.
