How to Get Rid of Bags Under Your Eyes

4

Use teabags. The tannin in the teabag can sometimes help ease down under-eye bags.

• Boil water and dunk two teabags into the hot water.
• Bob it up and down until they are soaked through.
• Remove and allow to cool on a plate. If wished, cover face, nose, eyes, with paper towel or face washers.
• Lie down somewhere comfortable. Place one soaked teabag over each eye. Put your feet up, relax for a few minutes.
• After a little chilling out, remove the teabags. Hopefully, things will look a little less puffy when you check the mirror again

Treat your allergies. Under-eye bags are often the result of allergies that lead to inflammation in the face.^[2] Since the skin around your eyes is thinner than skin on the rest of your body, fluid tends to collect there and puff out the skin.

• Use an allergy medication to treat hay fever and other seasonal allergies. Try an over-the-counter medicine or get a prescription from your doctor.
• Avoid spending time near allergy sources, like flowers, dust or animals. Make sure your house is well-vacuumed and wash your linens frequently

   Change your sleeping position.^[3] People who sleep on their stomachs or sides have a greater chance of waking up with under-eye bags, since these positions allow fluid to collect under the eyes during the night. Side sleepers may actually notice that the eye on the side they sleep on has a larger bag than the eye on the other side.
   

   • Try gradually sleeping on your back more often than your stomach or side. It's not easy to change sleeping positions, so you may have a little difficulty getting used to it at first. You can try adding pillows to your sides to make it easier to sleep on your back.
   • Use a second pillow under your head if you're a back sleeper. With your head at a slightly downward angle, fluid won't collect under your eyes at night.

   Treat your face gently. Since facial skin, and especially under-eye skin, is thin and fragile, it's easy to damage it and make it weaker, which leads to even bigger bags. Use the following methods to start treating your under-eye skin with more care:
   

   • Don't go to sleep wearing makeup. The chemicals in makeup can irritate your eyes at night. Washing your face before going to sleep is an important part of good facial hygiene.
   • Wash and dry your face gently. Scrubbing your face clean and then rubbing it dry with a towel can weaken the skin around your eyes. Use a good eye makeup remover to gently wipe away makeup, then splash your face with water a few times and pat it dry with a soft towel.
   • Moisturize your face every night. Making sure your face, and especially your eye area, gets enough moisture helps the skin retain elasticity and strength. Use a face moisturizing lotion or oil every night before bed.
   • Use sunscreen every day. The sun's rays can cause the thin skin around your eyes to become even more fragile. Make sure you protect your skin there every day, even during the winter.

4. to you, try making the following changes:
   

   • Reduce the amount of salt you use in everyday cooking. Try cutting it in half or cutting it out entirely - you'd be surprised how flavorful food can be without the addition of a lot of salt. Try cutting back the salt you use in baked goods and avoiding salt altogether at dinnertime, since your body won't have time to balance things out before you sleep.
   • Drink less alcohol. Drinking alcohol causes water retention, so the less you drink, the less puffy your under-eye bags will look in the morning. On the nights when you do drink, follow each drink with an equal amount of water. Try to stop drinking early in the evening rather than having your last one just before bed.

   Get a filler. Bags or circles caused by aging won't respond to lifestyle changes, but getting a hyaluronic filler can improve the appearance of the under-eye area. The filler is injected under the eyes to make the contours of the eye socket appear more youthful.
   

   • This procedure can be dangerous if it's not done by a professional. Do research before committing to getting a filler.
   • Fillers usually cost several hundred dollars, and can lead to negative side effects like bruising and swelling.

   Get surgery. As people age, fat deposits move down from the eyeballs and accumulate in the under-eye area, leading to bags. Blepharoplasty is the process of removing or changing the position of the fat that has accumulated, followed by a laser treatment to tighten the skin in the area.^[4]
   

   • Blepharoplasty procedures usually cost between $2,000 and $5,000 dollars.
   • The recovery period can last several weeks.

   Tips

   • Put 2 spoons (not plastic) in the freezer for about 15 minutes. Take them out and put one over each eye, with the scoop facing down. Close your eyes once the spoons are over your eyes. Leave them on until they are warm again.
   • Sleep longer. Stop watching those late night shows or playing games on your iPad into the wee small hours. After a week of swearing off late nights, you'll find a real difference.
   • Try not to drink lots of water before you go to bed, the fluids will build up there when you sleep.
   • Freeze ice bags. Then apply to eyes over a thin towel.
   • Take deeper breaths. Not getting enough oxygen can cause darker eye bags.
   • Put a cold spoon under each eye.
