Eye Bag Removal Procedure

1. Skin Tightening

One common issue with under-eye bags is the presence of loose and sagging skin. The natural aging process can cause a reduction in skin elasticity, resulting in excess skin in the lower eyelid area. Our surgeons are experts in using innovative skin-tightening techniques to address this concern. 

2. Fat Relocation

In cases where fat deposits are causing an under-eye bag, fat relocation is an effective solution. Our surgeons carefully redistribute excess fat from other areas of the face to fill in the hollow areas under the eyes, creating a more youthful and balanced look. This technique results in a natural and lasting outcome.   

3. Scar Minimization

We understand that scarring is a concern for many patients undergoing eyebag surgery. Our surgeons prioritize minimal scarring through meticulous incision techniques and suturing. Incisions are strategically placed in natural skin creases or concealed areas, ensuring that any scarring is virtually invisible. 

4. Combining Techniques

Every patient is unique, and their concerns may vary. That’s why our skilled surgeons often combine these techniques to achieve the best results. The approach is personalized to address your specific needs, whether it’s loose skin, fat deposits, or both. 

Eye Bag Removal Recovery & Aftercare

After Eyebags Surgery, it’s crucial to follow proper aftercare to ensure a smooth recovery. Here’s what you can expect:   

Swelling and Bruising

It’s perfectly normal to experience some swelling and bruising in the days following Eyebags Surgery. This is part of the body’s natural healing process. To manage swelling and bruising effectively:   

  • Cold Compresses: Applying cold compresses to the treated area can help reduce swelling and minimize bruising. Be gentle when applying the compress, as the skin around the eyes is delicate.  
  • Elevation: Keeping your head elevated while resting or sleeping can also help alleviate swelling. Use an extra pillow to ensure your head remains higher than your heart. 

Pain Management

While post-surgery pain is typically minimal, we will provide guidance on pain management to ensure your comfort.    

  • Avoiding Sun Exposure: Protect your sensitive skin from the sun to minimize scarring.  
  • Follow-up Appointments: Regular check-ups are essential to monitor your progress.

What are the causes of eye bags?
  • Aging and Skin Changes: One of the primary culprits behind under-eye bags is the natural aging process. As we age, the skin, ligaments as well as muscles lose their elasticity and sag, fat around the eye tends to move to under the eye causing puffiness.   
  • Genetics: Genetics plays a significant role in the formation of under-eye bags. If your parents or close relatives have a history of prominent under-eye bags, you may be more predisposed to develop them as well. 
  • Fluid Retention: Retention of fluids can cause puffiness under the eyes. Factors such as excessive salt intake, allergies, sinus problems, or even hormonal fluctuations can lead to fluid accumulation in the delicate under-eye area. 
  • Fat Deposits: In some cases, fat deposits may accumulate beneath the eyes, creating a bulging effect. This can be hereditary or simply a result of aging. 
  • Lifestyle Factors: Lifestyle choices can also contribute to under-eye bags. Lack of sleep, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, and a diet high in sodium can exacerbate the problem. 
  • Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays can break down the collagen and elastin fibers in the skin, accelerating the aging process and contributing to under-eye bag formation.
