Brilio.net - There are various problems in the eye area which can be quite disturbing to your appearance. Starting from panda eyes or dark circles, eye bags, to wrinkles in the eye area. Problems in the eye area generally occur as a person ages. One of the most commonly experienced is eye bags .
Even though they don't cause pain, eye bags can disrupt your appearance because they make your face look tired and older than your actual age. The face also looks less fresh and puffy. Eye bags occur due to a buildup of fluid caused by weakening of the tissue around the eyes, including the muscles that support the eyelids.
One of the most common causes of eye bags is the effects of lack of sleep. The reason is, due to lack of sleep, the blood vessels under the thin skin of the eyes will widen and create a dark color. These dilated blood vessels will cause fluid to build up around the eyes, resulting in eye bags forming.
But actually, the biggest factor causing eye bags is aging. This is because, as we age, the muscles and tissue structures around the eyes weaken. It is not surprising that as a person gets older, eye bags will get thicker.
This also happens because the collagen and elastin tissue in the skin tissue begins to decline. Because of this, the skin will lose its ability to maintain skin firmness and suppleness. The skin will even start to sag and fluid will start to collect under the eyes.
Apart from that, the fat in the eye area will move to the area under the eyes so that it looks swollen or forms quite thick eye bags. Even so, in fact eye bags can also be caused by other factors such as the effects of stress, crying too long, fatigue, and an unhealthy lifestyle.
No need to worry, because there are various ways you can treat this condition. Such as undergoing treatment at a beauty clinic, using skincare products, and using natural ingredients.
