Here are all the details about how eye bags are formed

Eye bags are one of the things that many women hate, because they make women look particularly old and seemingly listless, so how to remove eye bags is one of the issues they care about most, but before that, it is also very important to understand how eye bags are formed.

What are eye bags?

Eye bags are caused by relaxation of the lower eyelid skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscles and orbital septum, and hypertrophy of the retroorbital fat, which protrude to form bag-like protrusions called eye bags. Bags under the eyes are common in middle-aged and elderly people around 40 years old, and can occur in both men and women. It is one of the early signs of human aging. Of course, with the improvement of people's material and cultural living standards and the development of science, it is possible to delay the occurrence of bags under the eyes.

Generally speaking, adults, especially women, will develop bags under their eyes between the ages of 25 and 30. This is mostly the result of fat accumulation. The best solution is to remove it completely. Some people think that their eye bags are not too obvious and always want to wait until the eye bags get bigger before removing them. This concept is wrong, and the result will inevitably be premature sagging of the lower eyelid skin.

【Causes of eye bags】

First, the skin around the eyes is extremely thin, being the thinnest skin on the human body. Moreover, the skin around the eyes exercises a lot, with the average person blinking 10,000 times a day, making it prone to aging and sagging.

Second, as we age, our work and rest times become irregular, the metabolism of the skin around our eyes slows down, collagen and elastic fibers begin to slowly disappear, and the fat that protects the eyeballs begins to slowly accumulate. Finally, once the skin ages to a certain extent, it can no longer hold the accumulated fat, which comes out of the frame and causes bags under the eyes.

Third, eye bags are caused by sagging skin. This understanding is highly representative. After middle age, the eyelid skin shrinks and becomes loose due to loss of moisture, the orbicularis oculi muscle sags, the tension of the orbital septum weakens, and the orbital fat herniates forward and downward due to gravity, thus forming bags under the eyes. It has been proven that this is also the main cause of eye bags.

Fourth, the aggravation of eye bags is caused by excessive fat. This is also a very representative understanding that orbital fat has normal physiological functions, and its main function is to protect the eyeball. It is also one of the reasons for the formation of eye bags. The "bag-like" appearance is entirely due to the loss of tension in the orbital septum.

Fifth, hereditary eye bags will appear from adolescence and are mostly caused by family genes.
