Fuss-free Ways to Get Rid of Under Eye Wrinkles Effectively

by Andy Cheng Director

The skin around the eyes is much thinner than the skin on the rest of your body. This means that one of the places to show signs of aging is around your eyes.

Other than the aging process that everyone goes through, these signs of aging are compounded by sun exposure, poor lifestyle habits, and hereditary factors. In fact, a combination of all these factors result in premature aging of the skin, making you tired and less attractive.

Although there are a lot of over-the-counter skincare products that promise to erase wrinkles and pigmentation around the eyes, these rarely work. Most of these products are moisturisers that temporarily plump up the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines around the eyes.

Designing and adopting a medical treatment plan remains the most effective way to reduce fine lines under the eyes and restore vitality to them.

We speak to a veteran aesthetic doctor in Singapore to find out some effective ways to get rid of under eye wrinkles.

Retinoids

Retinoids are chemical compounds which are closely related to vitamin A. Retinoids are great for providing several benefits to us including regulating cell production, growing bone tissue, and treating a range of skin conditions such as acne.

When applied on the skin, it encourages the skin cells to renew and regenerate more quickly, making way for new cells to grow underneath. They are also known for slowing down the breakdown of collagen, making the skin thicker, preventing wrinkles and fine lines from developing.

Aloe vera gel

Aloe vera is widely recognized for its healing properties, but you may not know that it can be used to reduce wrinkles on the face. It is very popular because you can use to apply aloe vera gel straight from the plant. Simply snap one of the leaves off and squeeze out the gel as you would with a tube of toothpaste. Dab it directly on the wrinkles and fine lines.

Wrinkles and fine lines will soften after the application because it immediately hydrates and plumps up the skin. For better result, you can combine the aloe vera gel with vitamin E to enhance the wrinkle-reducing capability.

Green tea bag

Soak 2 used green tea bags in cold water and apply it to your eyes. Keep it on your eyes for about 15-20 minutes.

The antioxidants and tannins in the tea will reduce inflammation and keep your eyes bright and healthy.

Egg white

Eggs are probably one of the most widely available food around. It is also one of the cheapest way to maintain your youthful appearance. Egg whites are full of protein and contain plenty of natural collagen.

An egg white facial aerating egg whites until they become frothy and applying them directly on the skin is a good way to plump the skin, tighten the pores, and leave the skin more supple.

Non-surgical anti-aging treatments

If you are impatient and would like to look for something that tackles your under eye wrinkles quickly, you can consider seeing a doctor for some non-surgical treatments to remove eye wrinkles.

One of our favorite ways is to use AGNES under eye wrinkle treatment to tighten the loose, saggy skin under the eyes. By administering tiny amounts of radiofrequency waves into the superficial layers of the skin, it stimulates the tissue to produce new collagen to tighten and firm the skin. At the same time, any accumulation of fatty tissue, which often results in formation of eye bags, can also be reduced at the same time.

If you are worried about the downtime of AGNES treatment, under eye filler is a more suitable option. Aging does not only cause the skin under the eyes to become loose, it also causes the face to lose considerable amount of fatty tissue deposits. Under eye dermal fillers can restore brighter, youthful-looking eyes by adding tiny volume of hyaluronic acid under the skin to plump up the under eye area.
