Causes and Treatments of Eye Bags [Dr. Hsin-Yu Chen's Perspective]

Besides congenital heredity, aging is the main cause of eye bags. As the skin, orbicularis oculi muscle and orbital septum loosen, the fat in the orbit protrudes outward, forming eye bags.

Eye bags are generally an aging phenomenon that gradually forms after the age of 40. However, due to the extensive use of 3C products in modern life, the age range for eye bag problems is gradually decreasing, and young faces in their early 20s are frequently seen in clinics.

Causes of looking older: eye bags, sagging mid-face

eye bagsThe presence of eye bags has a crucial impact on a person's overall visual age. When patients consult about facial rejuvenation surgery in the clinic, the first step I often take is to assess whether they have prominent eye bags and sunken tear troughs. If so, I will recommend improving them through a hidden eye bag fat repositioning surgery.

In addition, the degree of sagging in the cheekbones and mid-face will be checked. The main reason for looking old and tired is often related to the sagging of the mid-face. This can be adjusted and improved at the same time as the eye bag surgery. After removing the eye bags and lifting the mid-face, the visual age of the face will be much younger.

There are two ways to treat eye bags: internal eye bag surgery and external eye bag surgery.

Internal blepharoplasty

The medial incision blepharoplasty is suitable for patients with relatively young skin and mild under-eye bags. Because the surgery is performed through an incision inside the eyelid, there will be no visible scars after the procedure.

External blepharoplasty

The external blepharoplasty can address a variety of issues and is suitable for patients with severe eye bags and loose skin. The incision is made on the eyelid near the eyelashes, following the skin's natural texture. The external scar will gradually become less noticeable over the next few weeks after the surgery.
