It occurs through the accumulation of water and fat around the eyes. Throughout the ageing of an individual, the collagen and elastin begin to deteriorate, leading to sagging which in turn increase the presence of water and fat. Also, allergies, sinusitis, increased blood pressure and high contents of salty foods can contribute to this issue.
Dark Eye Circles, Dark Spots, Swelling Around and Underneath the Eyes
The reduced blood circulation resulting in the enlargement of veins increase congestion and leakage of the blood around the eyes, due to the weakening of the capillaries. This makes the outside of the eye become black and dull. The melanin underneath the skin surface irritates the skin of the eye. This occurs through the constant rubbing of the eyes, eczema and cosmetic allergic reactions.
Eyes Wrinkle, Wrinkles Around and Underneath the Eyes
The occurrence of wrinkles around and underneath the eyes are due to the reduction in skin elasticity and firmness and over action and repetitive movement of muscles around eyes. The skin area around the eyes is fragile and sensitive. Sun exposure, smoking, irritability of the skin around and underneath the eyes also contribute to the development of wrinkles.
Method of reducing dark eye circle, wrinkles and eye bags
1. Reduce the intake of coffee, tea and quit smoking
It causes the interruption and poor blood circulation to the tissue surrounding the eyes, resulting in the appearance of dark spots.
2. Correctly clean the areas around the eyes
Use a hypoallergenic cleaning agent to gently remove make-up, dirt particles and grease attached to the surface of the skin.
3. Maintain regular sleep patterns
A lack of sleep causes an increase in melatonin resulting in dull spots underneath the eyes.
4. Use recommended skin care products
BSL Clinic’s skin care product Skinesia contains a combination of ingredients including collagen, elastin, ceramide, phytosphingosine, shiso extract, hyaluronic acid, aloe vera and vitamin E to aid in the quick recovery of the skin. The nutrients and minerals are absorbed to revitalise the surrounding skin around the eyes.
5. Laser treatments
It is highly effective in the treatments of various skin conditions, with favourable long-term outcomes. BSL Clinic’s doctors have extensive experiences, specialised skill sets and knowledge to operate specific laser technologies in undertaking their treatments safely.
- Periorbital darkening or dark eye circles – Pigment removal laser and fractional laser treatment utilised due to its accuracy in effectively removing pigments and dull spots safely around the eye areas.
- Infraorbital swelling and edema – The vascular laser utilised in the treatment of the congested veins underneath the eyes. The use of Collagen boosting program Ultherapy, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) or Radio Frequency (RF) removes the accumulation of water and fat around the eyes. It increases the production of collagen and elastin, creating a firmer, smoother and youthful looking skin.
- Hollowness underneath the eyes – Is caused by the depletion of collagen tissue, repositioning of fat around the eyes, structural ligament defects and tear gland producing a hollowness appearance alongside the curves of the eye globe. HA Filler or Skin Bio-modulation Injection treatment are safe and effective, with rarely downtime required.
- Periorbital rhytids and wrinkles – Anti-wrinkle injections contain purified proteins, which cause the facial muscles to relax and eliminate wrinkles. The utilisation of the Fractional Resurfacing technology including the Morpheus 8 Program and Fraxel dual Program help wrinkles and naturally increases the production of new collagen and elastin around the eye areas. Skin tightening treatments including the Ulthera Program, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Program and Radio Frequency (RF) technologies are undertaken for patients with eye wrinkles, sagging, droopy eyelids and eyebrows. Each skin issue is treated individually and with considerable care for effective results.
