Tired Eyes & Eye Bags

It is not uncommon for our eyes to appear tired & puffy first thing in the morning. This is due to fluid build-up while we are sleeping, and it is something that will normally fade within the first few moments of getting up. More long-term bags under the eyes usually develop as a result of ageing. This means the puffiness in and around the lower eyelid becomes less likely to fade throughout the day and can lead to tired-looking eyes.

During the process of ageing, as with the rest of the face and body, the structure of the skin around the eyes starts to weaken. The skin around the eyes is already thinner and more delicate than on other facial features. The underlying tissues and supporting muscles also start to weaken, causing the skin to sag and eye bags to worsen.

Although ageing is the most common cause of eye bag development, it is possible for environmental factors and lifestyle choices to accelerate the process, leading to the formation of eye bags at a younger age.
