Under Eye Aesthetics
Under eye aesthetics refer to surgical or non-surgical procedures aimed at reducing under eye bags, dark circles, or signs of aging to achieve a younger and refreshed appearance. Here are the fundamental details about under eye aesthetics:
Causes of Under Eye Bags and Dark Circles:
- Genetic Factors: Under eye bags and dark circles are often associated with genetic predisposition. They may be more prevalent in individuals with a family history of similar conditions.
- Aging: As age progresses, skin elasticity decreases, and the fat and tissues under the eyes may start to sag, leading to under eye bags and dark circles.
- Stress and Lack of Sleep: Stress, fatigue, and insufficient sleep can contribute to swelling and increased visibility of dark circles under the eyes.
Options for Under Eye Aesthetics:
- Under Eye Fillers: Using filler substances like hyaluronic acid to fill hollow areas under the eyes and reduce under eye bags is possible.
- Skincare for Under Eyes: Eye creams and serums can be used to even out skin tone and reduce puffiness under the eyes.
- Under Eye Surgery (Blepharoplasty): This is a surgical procedure aimed at permanently removing under eye bags. Excess fat and tissue are typically removed through incisions made either under or above the lower eyelid.
Before and After the Procedure:
- Before: It is important to consult with a plastic surgeon before the procedure. The surgeon will understand your expectations and recommend the most suitable treatment option.
- After: Under eye fillers generally provide immediate results, while the results of under eye surgery may become more apparent within a few weeks. The recovery period varies from person to person but typically completes within a few weeks.
Risks and Side Effects:
- During under eye filler injections, redness, swelling, or mild bruising may occur at the injection site.
- Risks of under eye surgery include infection, suture line separation, or temporary numbness.
Under eye aesthetics vary depending on individual needs and preferences. Consulting with a plastic surgeon is crucial to determine which option is most suitable for you.
