Cosmetic Treatments for Eye Bags and Dark Circles

The skin below our eyes is much thinner and sensitive than the rest of the face. That’s why the veins in that area are visible and, in moments of fatigue, the look is the first thing it reveals. The signs are dark circles and bags. In both cases may be possible-due to fatigue or illness-or standing-by inheritance. Dark circles, moreover, vary in color: purple, green or brown, depending on skin tone of the person.

Many factors influence the appearance of puffiness and dark circles: as we said, there may be a genetic tendency, or it may be due to tiredness, hormonal changes, allergies, malnutrition, fluid retention, excessive coffee or alcohol, or smoking.

So the first tip to soften or disappear bags or dark circles is getting enough sleep and eat healthily. Eating lots of water help against fluid retention and use sunscreen prevent the appearance of dark circles worse. It is good decision to use a special moisturizer for the eye area at night, to decongest the area.

Eye Bags and Dark Circles

Cosmetology offers different types of treatments. In the case of dark circles, discoloration may be procedures that act on the melanin, peelings, that also get rid of darker pigments or can be used to whitening creams. In severe cases, there are laser treatments that correct the blood vessels and reduce the pigment. Then there is the Carboxitherapy, which involves injecting carbon dioxide into the eyecup, thereby stimulating the regeneration of the skin and therefore the clarification of the area.

The eye bags can respond to an accumulation of liquid or fat, or, again, to a genetic disposition. Severe cases can be treated with radiofrequency or surgery.

In the first case, applying a suitable product for the origin of the bag (draining effect, if they are due to fluid retention, or lipolytic, if they are for fat accumulation) and then radio to better penetrate their assets.

Moreover, the surgery, called blepharoplasty, is done through incisions along the natural lines of the eyelids. It removes excess tissue or fat, and strengthening the muscles and tendons in the area. The procedure is ambulatory, does not require hospitalization, but there will be some swelling and bruising for several days. The final effect will be seen after a few months.

Special Care for Dry Skin

Just as there are different types of hair, different skin types. It can be fat (if there is an excessive accumulation of fat), dried (for lack of moisture) or mixed (a combination of both conditions). This time, we will take care of dry skin, care required and some treatment options.

This type of skin can be caused by various conditions: poor diet (which causes a deficiency of certain vitamins, and minerals like zinc), intensive sun exposure, use of certain soaps, pollution, environmental changes or simply over time. Whatever the cause, the sebaceous glands do not produce enough fluid to lubricate and protect skin from moisture loss.

Then the skin is dull and increases their sensitivity, their texture becomes very thin and red, tends to tear easily and develop premature wrinkles. In addition, it may become scaly.

The care required for dry skin are based on smoothing treatment that we give and hydration. It is advisable to avoid soaps, perfumes, detergents, take a shower with warm water (never hot water) and in the shortest time possible, to dry out, do it with gentle strokes, do not rub, drink lots of water during the day and avoid exposure to strong sunlight, extreme cold or wind.

With regard to use creams, it is important to have sunscreen, and also vitamins E and A, collagen or elastin. It would be important to supplement during the night with some regenerative components.

Also interesting is the possible application of masks and treatments. If we can not resort to a dermatologist or cosmetologist, there are several homemade recipes:

  • Moisturizing Mask: mixture of 1 tablespoon vinegar 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon yeast, 1 tablespoon olive oil apple, 2 tablespoons honey and 2 tablespoons yogurt. Apply and leave for twenty minutes. Remove with distilled water.
  • Apply at night watermelon juice on her face. Repeat for two weeks.
  • To smooth the wrinkles that form, especially around the eyes, we can apply the mixture of whipped egg white until stiff, with oatmeal. It should be dry and remove with warm water.
  • To replace cleansers (which can be aggressive), we can choose two natural choices: (1) a mixture of plain yogurt and a spoonful of milk or (2) a couple of tablespoons of warm milk and oil oil and used as such.
