Treatments For Dark Circles & Eye Bags
In our Ashford aesthetics clinic, we offer a range of personalised treatments for dark circles and eye bags.
What Causes Dark Circles & Eye Bags?
Ageing is one of the most significant causes of dark circles and eye bags. When we lose collagen and elastin, the skin under our eyes becomes thinner and is more prone to sagging. As a result, the fat pads beneath the eyes protrude and dark circles form.
Lifestyle factors - such as a lack of sleep, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking and a diet high in sodium - can also lead to the concern. Sun exposure overtime can too accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres that would otherwise keep the skin under our eyes supple.
