PUFFINESS BEYOND & DARK LINES CIRCLES

-

PUFFINESS

Numerous causes, ranging from sinus problems, ageing and thyroid disorders to allergies. Cold compresses like cucumber slices or cold tea bags. Address underlying medical causes. Restrict salt intake. Blood vessel constricti­ng products, often containing caffeine, that reduce puffiness. For extreme puffiness, laser and surgical options are available. See your doctor for advice.

DARK CIRCLES

Usually a genetic component in addition to factors like fatigue, dehydratio­n or thinning skin, making underlying vessels visible. A good concealer to hide darkness and enhance brightenin­g. Ensure adequate sleep and water intake. Try collagen stimulatin­g products to thicken overlaying skin. Dermal fillers can be used. Eyelid fat transfer surgery is also an option.
