There are many types of treatments available for eye bags. Botox injections and dermal fillers are some of the options. We will be discussing some of the most common treatments as well as how they can be done in your clinic. Depending on your individual circumstances, the best treatment for eye bags might be the one that is most appropriate for you. Be sure to investigate all options before you begin looking for treatment for eyebags.
Botox
There are many injectable fillers you can choose from to help with eye bags. Botox is one example of such a product. It temporarily paralyzes the muscles responsible for wrinkle-causing effects. Restylane, a non-animal product, is made from hyaluronic acids. It can be injected using needles, and can have lasting effects. Botox may be used as an aesthetic treatment to remove eye bags. However it is far safer than surgery.
Botox relaxes the muscles around your eyes. Botox tightens the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. It can also be used in some cases to lift the eyebrows. Botox can also be used to help open your eyes. This will result in tighter skin and higher brows. Botox can result in a more youthful appearance.
Dermal fillers
Dermal fillers, unlike surgery, are an effective cosmetic treatment for eye bags or hollows. They require minimal downtime and don't require any recovery. A majority of patients only require one injection in the office, and the procedure takes typically less than an half hour. After treatment, patients can resume work or other normal activities. Patients may experience some bruising or discoloration around the injection site. However, these side effects are often minor and resolve quickly.
Patients choose dermal fillers to treat eyebags. They can conceal moderate under-eye puffiness or correct severe cases. Botox may not prove to be the best treatment for dynamic wrinkles. Botox can relax the facial muscles and improve the appearances of eye bags. You can smoothen the upper facial contours with dermal fillers, which aren't invasive and don't require downtime.
Lift the lower eyelids
It may be necessary to administer general or local pain medication. The former causes complete unconsciousness, while local anesthesia makes the patient feel more comfortable and less pain. General anesthesia may be required depending on the complexity of the procedure. Local anesthesia can be used for lower eyelid lifting. The surgeon can use a local anesthetic to avoid discomfort by testing the eye muscles before performing the procedure.
A lower eyelid lift can be performed by an experienced surgeon to remove undereye bags. To access the fat underlying the eye, an incision will be made under your lash line. To make the skin look younger, excess skin is removed and reshaped. Most often, the incision line will be hidden in the crease of your lower eyelids. This reduces scarring.
Dermal resurfacing lasers
Dermal resurfacing lasers for eye bag treatment are extremely effective for treating the damaged and aging skin under the eyes. The treated area will begin to heal and can even lose wrinkles in just one procedure. The procedure can take as little as one week to recover. Patients who are darkly pigmented may benefit more from this procedure. Lasers used for treating eye bags may not be suitable for all patients, but they can be very effective for people with dark skin.
Apply a topical numbing cream to the area before the procedure. After 30 minutes, the area is gently wiped with wet gauze to ensure that the treatment area is clean and free of any impurities that could interfere with the procedure. The lower eyelid is also covered with gauze to protect it from the procedure. Laser treatments may cause temporary white bumps around the treated area.
