What eye treatments does aesthetic medicine offer?
Eye treatments - how to remedy wrinkles and bags under the eyes?
The skin around the eyes is delicate and very thin, so it requires special care. Its appearance betrays how old we are, how we feel and whether we are tired or stressed. We can take care of it at home, but in order to restore its glow, it is necessary to undergo aesthetic medicine treatments. Eye treatments restore firmness to the skin around them and give a radiant, youthful appearance.
What eye treatments can be used at home?
It's important to know that skin after the age of 25 loses acid and collagen, and as a result, signs of aging, such as wrinkles, show up on the skin. Here are some tips on what you can do good for the skin under your eyes while staying at home.
- It is important to use creams enriched with filters to protect against harmful UV radiation. The skin under the eyes needs such ingredients as vitamin C, peptides, retinol, caffeine or ceramides. Most creams available in drugstores contain them. We can choose the composition of such a cream ourselves, as well as match it to a specific skin type. Nowadays we can use the benefit of the Internet to make drugstore purchases without leaving home. Virtual assistants, with whom we can exchange a few words via chat (as a rule, it is available on the right side of the online version of the drugstore), will help in choosing the right cream.
- Eye treatments such as facial massage and cold compresses are excellent for soothing tired skin around the eyes. In both cases, ice cubes will work well. Just pour them into a bowl of water and then immerse your face in them for a few tens of seconds. This will promote circulation and improve skin firmness. The second way is to massage the face with a bag filled with ice cubes. The result? Elastic skin and relaxation.
- To stop the process of tear valley, it is worth using compresses of black or green tea infusion. The substances contained in them have an anti-edematous and astringent effect. Tea bags should be brewed and cooled in the refrigerator, and then applied to the skin of the face for about a quarter of an hour. Instead of tea, chamomile or the herb of the eyebright will work perfectly.
- Packs of fresh cucumber or potato are also a good way to treat the tear valley. These vegetables have an astringent, smoothing and cleansing effect. They can quite e remove puffiness and dark circles under the eyes.
- When washing off your makeup in the evening, you need to remember to wipe the skin around your eyes gently and avoid rubbing hard. This under-eye treatment will make the skin slower to succumb to aging.

These ingredients dissolve fat cells, and the result is reduced bags under the eyes. After the procedure, the skin looks healthy, rested and radiant.
To definitely get rid of bags under the eyes, injection lipolysis should be repeated at least three times at intervals of 4 or 5 weeks. Injection lipolysis allows to permanently remove accumulated fat in the eye area. The procedure is contraindicated for pregnant and breastfeeding women, obese people, people with diabetes or epilepsy, and people who are allergic to eggs and/or soy.
Treatment of correction of the valley of tears
It mainly helps the small hollows under the eyes, known as the valley of tears. With the use of hyaluronic acid, it is possible to fill the valley of tears, which eliminates the problem of tired eyes and restores firmness and radiance to the skin.
After the tear valley correction procedure, you will immediately notice a shallowing of the hollow, reduction of bruising and firming of the skin under the eyes. The procedure is short and painless. It is performed after anesthetizing the area with a cream.
The effects of the tear valley treatment last up to 14 months. Contraindications to this eye treatment include a history of autoimmune disease, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and hypersensitivity to any of the product's ingredients, especially acid.
Treatment of the correction of the valley of tears with hyaluronic acid must not be used in case of: the presence of bacterial infected foci on the skin, and a tendency to form overgrown scars. Also, people who have undergone previous treatments with permanent fillers in the same skin area are not advised to use hyaluronic acid.
Another treatment for the valley of tears is polylactic acid injection. Its effects are more long-lasting than those of hyaluronic acid. Polylactic acid stimulates collagen synthesis, and this causes the tissues to rebuild naturally.
