What is the most effective treatment for puffy eye bags?

Doctor's Answer

This is a common problem that many people are facing!

In my clinic, I will first assess the severity of the eyebags. If the eyebags are large, I would suggest surgery and refer them to my plastic surgery colleagues.

For small and puffy eyebags, I would offer the non-surgical solutions in my clinic below. They may be used alone or in combination:

1. Thermage,Exilis Ultra 360 , Ultherapy are options for small eyebags.

Thermage and exilis ultra uses radiofrequency to tighten and lift the skin around the eyebags. They will also reduce the fat and fluid accumulation in the eyebags. Ultherapy uses ultrasound to lift the cheeks, supporting the eyebags and reducing its appearance.

Overal results are eyebags which are less obvious.

2. Lasers to the eye bags

I use a combination of lasers to increase collagen and tighten the skin around the eyebags. This firms up the skin and reduce the appearance of eyebags and dark circles.

3. Korean thread lift to the eyebags

These are super fine PDO threads inserted into the eyebags area to firm up the skin and reduce the fats in the eyebags. They will also help to lighten the skin over the eyebags.

4. Fillers

Fillers can be used to reduce the appearance of the eyebags. Fillers may be injected into the cheeks or the tear trough to support and reduce the appearance of the eyebags.

I will advise you consult a doctor to assess your condition and discuss the best option for yourself.
