How can I quickly remove eye bags

Quick removal of eye bags can be improved through methods such as cold compress, sleep adjustment, local massage, laser therapy, surgical removal, etc. The formation of eye bags may be related to factors such as genetics, aging, overuse of the eyes, and poor local circulation.

1. Cold compress

Cold compress helps to constrict blood vessels and reduce periocular edema. Apply a refrigerated wet towel or specialized eye mask to the eyes for 5-10 minutes, repeating 2-3 times a day. Low temperature can temporarily improve local microcirculation, suitable for temporary eye bags caused by staying up late or allergies. Be careful to avoid skin frostbite caused by low temperatures.

2. Adjusting sleep

Ensuring 7-8 hours of high-quality sleep per day can reduce the accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the eyes. Adopt a supine position and use a pillow of moderate height to avoid the accumulation of bodily fluids around the eyes during sleep. Long term sleep deprivation can lead to collagen loss and accelerate the formation of eye bags. It is recommended to maintain a regular sleep schedule and reduce the use of electronic devices before bedtime.

3. Local massage

Gently pressing along the orbital bone can promote lymphatic return. Gently push from the inner corner of the eye to the temple with the ring finger, and use a caffeinated eye cream for better results. Massage for 1-2 minutes each morning and evening, paying attention to moderate intensity and avoiding pulling on fragile skin around the eyes. This method has a significant effect on mild edema type eye bags.

4. Laser therapy

Non ablative lasers can stimulate collagen remodeling and improve skin laxity. Using 1064nm or 1550nm wavelength laser for 3-5 treatments, with a 4-week interval between each treatment, can tighten the lower eyelid skin and reduce fat protrusion. Temporary redness and swelling may occur after surgery, and strict sun protection is necessary. Suitable for individuals with mild to moderate eye bags who are unwilling to undergo surgery.

5. Surgical resection

Eye bag resection is suitable for stubborn eye bags, removing excess fat and loose tissue through conjunctival or skin incisions. The internal method has no external scars and recovers quickly, while the external method can simultaneously remove excess skin. After surgery, ice should be applied for 48 hours and vigorous exercise should be avoided for 1 month. There is a risk of hematoma, infection, etc., and it needs to be operated by a professional plastic surgeon.

Daily intake of sodium salt needs to be limited to prevent sodium retention. Vitamin C and collagen supplementation help maintain skin elasticity. Avoid forcefully rubbing your eyes and prolonged bowing movements, and wear UV resistant glasses when going out. If eye bags are accompanied by itching, pain, or changes in vision, it may indicate allergies, infections, or other systemic diseases, and prompt medical examination should be sought. All medical cosmetic procedures must undergo preoperative evaluation in a formal institution.
