Too Much Fatty Tissue Under the Eyes
Eye bags are something weve all tried to get rid of at one time or another.
When getting eight hours of sleep two weeks in a row didnt seem to get rid of them (though it felt good!), some of us even started putting tea bags on our eyes.
TOO MUCH FATTY TISSUE UNDER THE EYES
Believe it or not, its all about the fat and where its placed. When were young, fat is evenly distributed throughout our face.
But, our cheeks lose this fatty tissue, with aging, much faster than our eyes do. This unevenness causes the baggy look we dislike so much.
Ever notice how not eating well leads to that gaunt look in the face?
Its the same process. Our cheek fat thins, and our eyes start to look exhausted. Some people have a genetic predisposition to this.
WELL, WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?
Theres a non-surgical option and a surgical option. For the non-surgical option, the concept is quite simple: use fillers to volumize the face.
The hollowed, gaunt look is, after all, caused by a sudden and abrupt transition from hollow cheeks to fatty eyes. Therefore, all an experienced physician needs to do is volumize this transition area, leading to a smoother look.
If possible, this should be the procedure of choice. When faced between a surgical and a non-surgical procedure, all things being equal, patients should opt for the latterand doctors should as well.
But what about the surgical option? Thankfully, even the surgical option is a fairly non-invasive procedure. Some fat, and sometimes some skin, is simply removed from underneath the eyelids.
Resumption of normal activities occur as early as a week after surgery. Full recovery takes four-to-six weeks.
