How can Botox help get rid of the bags under my eyes?
To be clear Botox doesnt help but I have some possible ideas for bags or fat under the eyes. It would be irresponsible to guess what the source of your “bags” are. Try to find someone who will offer a free consult. I can offer you one at home “trick” If you look in the mirror and pull on your smile lines on the side of your eyes and they disappear an opthalmologist would tighten the tendon to mimic what you just did. If the bag remains there, its most likely fat, again that same eye surgeon would take fat out from that area. I would limit your search to eye surgeons or opthalmologists. The eyes are a very tricky area with lots of nerves, tendons and muscles around them. You dont want a general surgeon, or an even an ENT doc to perform that kind of delicate surgery if necessary. Also the bags might just be optical dark circles caused by poor circulation. Carboxytherapy is used for dark under eye circles and also helps with some fat reduction as well. One consolation if its fat, that is the one area where we tend to lose volume when we get older. Many doctors actually add filler under the eyes to help with that problem which happens to pretty much everyone as they get older. So the problem will reverse itself naturally when you get older. If you do elect to remove fat now, the doctor should know to err on the side of being conservative since you will naturally lose more fat and collagen in that area as you get older and you dont want to exacerbate that naturally occurring problem of aging eyes.
