With eyes, you can transmit feelings, emotions, and moods but also reveal the state of the skin and lifestyle of the person. Fatigue, lack of sleep, ageing, poor diet, or stress will be reflected in our eyes quickly and clearly. Paying attention to hygiene, care, and embellishment of the eye area is vital to improving our appearance and feeling better.
Aesthetic care:
- Moisturizers: hyaluronic acid, urea, sodium lactate, allantoin, shea butter, etc.
- Antioxidants and regenerators: retinol, vitamin C and E, creatinine.
- Filmogens: cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, etc.
- Astringent: plant extracts (witch hazel, horse chestnut, calendula, chamomile).
- Collagen formers: plant extracts like gotu kola.
- Unsaturated fatty acids: linolenic acid, linoleic acid, cholesterol, arachidonic acid, etc.
For the application of these preparations, a small amount is deposited on the fingertip that is distributed in the area by means of gentle massages from outside the eyes, without it being necessary to apply it on the upper eyelids to avoid the risk of causing irritative conjunctivitis due to the accidental introduction of cream into the eye.
Eye Rejuvenation Treatment with Dermal Enhancements:
There are many trends in cosmetic surgery, but none more significant than using dermal enhancements to soften wrinkles, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and sunken areas around the eyes. These new nonsurgical treatments are popular for several reasons, since people continue to look for procedures with little downtime that simultaneously offer immediate results. The eye rejuvenation treatments at Nitai Medical and Cosmetic Centre are non-surgical, affordable and can be scheduled at lunchtime.
With the use of dermal enhancements, the eyes can be given volume and support to alleviate the hollow and tired appearance caused by the dark circles of the lower eyelid. Often, dark circles result from accumulated fat in the lower eyelid that is excessive due to the loss of volume that creates a hollow area. Placing the dermal enhancement to the hollow region around the eyes called tear troughs or dark circles, there is less shadow. Therefore, an improvement in the dark circles can be observed in the eye rejuvenation treatment with dermal enhancements, making the eyes look younger and radiant.
Tips to Avoid Dark Circles/Tear Troughs:
Apart from the eye rejuvenation treatment with dermal enhancements, the following help reduce the appearance of dark circles, eye bags, and pigmentation around the eyes.
Use of eye contour cream containing retinol:
With repeated use, retinol (a type of vitamin A) can stimulate the production of collagen, making the skin soft and plush, contributing to the vascular support of the area and the recovery of the volume and firmness of the skin, thus improving dark circles.
Sleep on your back and use an extra pillow:
Swollen bags under the eyes may seem to be a big problem after you wake up in the morning. Consider sleeping on your back with an extra pillow so that the fluid does not accumulate during the night. Protect the pillow from allergens (dust and dust mites); a protective coating over pillows can also help when allergies are to blame.
If you have dark circles, use depigmenting products and sunscreen:
Sometimes, dark circles are caused by increased pigment, either from rubbing or damage caused by the sun. The best treatment for this includes topical lighting agents, such as vitamin C, kojic acid, and licorice extract. These ingredients help diminish the pigmentation of the skin over time, ultimately illuminating the dark circles. Invest in a broad-spectrum physical sunscreen that contains zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
Allergy Control:
Most people do not realize they have darkening under their eyes due to allergies. An antihistamine can help with the treatment, but otherwise, it is best to refer to a skin doctor.
Sleep more, or at least get a more restful sleep:
The cheapest way to reduce the appearance of bags under the eyes is to put on a regular sleep routine of seven to eight hours per day and avoid drinking alcohol a few hours before bedtime.
Teabags:
Tea, which contains natural tannins, is a mild diuretic that can be useful in reducing eye swelling. Place two tea bags in warm water, let the bags cool for a few minutes in the refrigerator, and then place them over your eyes for five minutes. They will feel fresh and look brighter.
Stay hydrated:
Staying hydrated is key if you are wondering how to get rid of the bags under your eyes. When the body is dehydrated, it responds by retaining as much water as it can, thus causing swelling and pockets under the eyes. One way to avoid bags entirely is to stay hydrated. To make sure you are well hydrated, follow the rule of drinking a glass of water (250 ml) eight times a day. That adds 2 litres of water, the recommended amount to consume daily.
These small changes in your everyday routine might help to sustain the radiance of your eyes, but to observe a noticeable change in your eyes with dark circles, one can opt for eye rejuvenation treatment with dermal enhancements.
