Having some dark heavy bags under your eyes can make anyone look terrible. Even if you are young and feel fine, having bags under your eyes gives people the impression that you're sick, tired, stressed, or a lot older than you really are. Some people seem to be especially prone to developing this baggy eye syndrome, and others never seem to suffer form it at all. What causes bags under your eyes, and how can you get rid of them?
Bags under your eyes are a result of a fluid buildup in the soft and especially elastic tissues of that are of your face. They can develop for a number of reasons. Not getting enough sleep is often a culprit, though the reason this leads to a build up of fluids is not completely understood. Alcohol can cause you to retain fluids, and if you frequently get bags under your eyes you should avoid drinking. A lot of studies have shown a clear connection between stress and baggy eyes as well. Stress and lack of sleep are likely connected, and have the same root cause for bags under your eyes. Also, many people develop puffy eyes in response to allergies.
There are some things you can do to help prevent bags under your eyes. First of all, you'll want to make sure you're not just having some allergies, so you should see a doctor. Allergies can often be treated, which may in turn cure the bags under your eyes as well. If its not allergies, try sleeping with your head slightly elevated; doing this personally made a big difference for me. Gravity alone can sometimes contribute to the fluid buildup beneath your eyes. And while its often easier said than done, do what you can to get a full night's sleep and avoid too much stress. Look into some relaxation techniques, cut back on your caffeine intake, get more exercise, or take a vacation. All of these sorts of things will help lower stress and may work wonders in preventing bags under your eyes.
Once you have developed bags under your eyes, one recommended treatment is to place something cool, relatively heavy, and wet over your eyes while lying down for 15 or more minutes. There are loads of suggestions on what to use, but I've found that just about anything with some weight to it will help. Essentially what you're doing is compressing the fluids out of the tissue, so I don't think it matters too much what you use.
As a last resort, there is a surgical procedure that will eliminate bags under your eyes. If you are especially prone to this condition, and have tried everything else, ask your doctor about it.
