Puffy Eyes
Posted on
Puffy under eyes or “bags” are mostly genetic. Yes, you can blame your parents! There are some specific medical conditions such as thyroid eye disease or seasonal allergies that can produce swelling around the eyes, but most of the time it is just the way you are built. So, what can you do about your “bags”?
First, check with your doctor. They may want to do some tests to rule out a medical cause, like the ones mentioned above.
Second, make an appointment with Dr. Waldrop (WaldropMD.com) and he can go over surgical and nonsurgical treatment options.
Good nutrition (i.e eating right), regular exercise, and a good night’s sleep help everyone look and feel better. The MedSpa at EYE-Q also has some excellent skin care products and sunblock to help your skin.
Dr. Waldrop will evaluate your eyelids and determine how Botox, filler, or eyelid surgery could work for you. The first step is deciding that you are ready to take care of you! Give us a call and we will get you on the path to better eyelids.
