Will eye bags disappear on their own?

As people’s life and work pressures increase, many people sleep very little and do not get a good rest at night. On weekends when people should be having a good rest, they will play with their phones until midnight and not get enough sleep. Therefore, many people now have bags under their eyes. Eye bags make people look ugly and not energetic at all. So, will eye bags disappear on their own?

Normally, it is almost impossible for eye bags to disappear on their own after they are formed. The only possibility is that they are pseudo eye bags that appear in people around 20 years old. Mild eye bags with dark circles appear due to lack of rest, staying up late, drinking too much, etc. They may return to their original state by adjusting sleep and local care, provided that the skin has excellent elasticity and no excessive fat.

Well, in clinical medicine, the formation of eye bags is usually characterized as an irreversible physiological phenomenon. The reasons are, firstly, the formation of eye bags is due to the decrease in the elasticity of the cellular tissue and the hyperplasia of fat in the cellular tissue. Under the interaction of the two, the fat in the cellular tissue bulges outward, causing bulging eye bags. Secondly, with the increase of age, the influence of working environment, living habits and other factors, the water supply to the eye tissue, especially the skin, is insufficient, resulting in long-term severe dehydration of the skin spinous layer cells, which affects the regeneration ability of collagen in the dermis and leads to the appearance of wrinkles and sagging. When both of the above symptoms occur at the same time, eye bags are formed. Its irreversibility is limited by the particularity of eye tissue. The decrease in elasticity of lattice fibers and eye skin muscle fibers is irreversible, and the hyperplastic fat cannot be absorbed by itself. Therefore, the only solution is surgical treatment.

There are two types of eye bag surgery: Internal route: This refers to making a small pinhole-shaped incision through the lower eyelid mucosa to remove excess fat within the frame and smooth out the bulging eye bags. This method is suitable for young people with smaller eye bags and good skin elasticity; External route: refers to making an incision outside the eyelash line of the lower eyelid to remove excess fat, muscle, and skin to achieve the effect of removing eye bags. There are many different external approaches, and the best surgical method is implemented according to individual differences to achieve the best results.
