What Causes Bags Under the Eyes?

Bags under your eyes form when the skin under the eyes sags and folds. When we are younger the foundation below the skin made up of bone, muscle, and fat supports the under-eye area, preventing the formation of under-eye bags and dark circles. However, as we get older the foundation erodes causing the skin to sag and fold and the under-eye bags to appear.

What Are Other Treatments for Bags Under Eyes?

EyeRise is a non-surgical technique for eye bag removal and under-eye circles, created by master injector Dr. Stephen Bracci and exclusively available at Verve. Dr. Bracci is known for treating the skin around the eye and the under-eye area and he developed this innovative method for reducing tired or aged appearance underneath the eyes. During the procedure, a tailored combination of cosmetic fillers are injected under the eyes, and the mid-face (malar) region. The goal of the procedure is to help reduce the appearance of eye bags and restore the skin to its original position, by using different cosmetic fillers for each layer underneath the skin. When you purchase a filler treatment, you are purchasing access to as many fillers, touch-ups, and follow ups it may take to get the optimal results.

There is nothing like getting that unwelcomed anti-compliment. “You look tired.”

At one time, a good night’s rest would have wiped that exhausted look right off your face. Now not as much. Why you may ask? Well, kiddo we will give it to you straight. Unfortunately, your eyes are not the windows for your soul. If they were you would look like the age you feel inside instead of a reflection of your advancing maturity.

Thankfully, we all have the option these days to age youthfully. Dr Stephen Bracci’s trademarked EyeRise procedure restores the contours around the eyes that age has taken away. Using Juvederm, a medical cosmetic filler, eye bags, hollowness, and dark circles are quickly erased leaving the patient with a fresher more youthful-looking appearance. And the best news is, the treatment requires little to no downtime. This is because we skip the sharp needles and use micro cannulas instead, which provides superior results that last for up to one year, while greatly reducing the risk of bruising and swelling. So are you tired of being told you look tired? Give us a call for a free consultation.

Hey, the proof is in the pudding (so to speak); just in case you missed it, check out this before and after!
