All kinds of compresses and masks for the eyelids are also effective in combating dark circles and swelling.

All massage movements must be carried out, starting from the inner one, gradually moving to the outer corner of the eye. Salon procedures against bags and circles under the eyes give a tangible result already from the first time.

In just a few procedures you can permanently get rid of the problem of bags and bruises under the eyes. A radical method of getting rid of bags under the eyes to date is only surgical intervention, or rather, blepharoplasty. The essence of the operation is to extract an overgrown or excess fatty tissue through a small incision on the skin and thereby save the patient from the bags under the eyes. After the operation, a small scar remains, but it is completely invisible, since it hides in the natural folds of the century. However, recent advances in surgery allow carrying out blepharoplasty without scarring. This, the so-called transconjunctival blepharoplasty, during which fatty tissue is removed through an incision made in the inner side of the eyelid. Blepharoplasty, like any surgical operation, has a number of complications. The most common is "dry eye syndrome," that is, a decrease in the discharge of tear fluid. Another complication is increased lacrimation, which is considered the norm in the first days after the operation. The norm is also the impossibility of completely closing the eyelid at the first time after the operation (in the surgery it is called lagophthalmus), but if this complication does not pass for a long time, it means that the surgeon has removed too much skin. The most dangerous complications - eyelid droop and hematoma - can become real if you contact a non-professional surgeon. The omission of the eyelid occurs as a result of damage to the upper eyelid muscle. Hematoma is one of the most unfavorable consequences of blepharoplasty. The most dangerous is retrotubulbarnaya hematoma (blood accumulates behind the eye), it threatens complete loss of vision. Therefore, before deciding on radical measures to remove bags under the eyes, it is worth carefully weighing all the pros and cons, and also turn to a highly qualified specialist who will make the operation qualitatively and without negative consequences. In general, it is worth noting that a problem such as dark circles and swelling under the eyes requires an integrated approach. That is, you need to look after not only the skin, but, first of all, carefully monitor your health. We advise you to read:
