What are dark circles and bags under the eyes?

Cernes et les poches sous les yeux

Que sont les cernes et poches sous les yeux ?

Les cernes sont des zones de pigmentation sombre sous les yeux (bleutées, violettes ou brunes), tandis que les poches se manifestent par un gonflement ou un relâchement de la peau sous les yeux.

Ces deux conditions distinctes donnent au visage un aspect fatigué et vieillissant.

Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by several factors.

Heredity

Some people are genetically predisposed to having more pronounced dark circles under their eyes.

Fatigue

Lack of sleep can make the skin paler, which makes the veins under the eyes stand out, giving a dark appearance.

Aging

With age, the skin thins and loses its elasticity, making the blood vessels under the skin more visible.

Allergies or nasal congestion

These conditions can lead to dilation of the blood vessels under the eyes, accentuating the appearance of dark circles.

REDENSITY 2

Redensity 2 diffuses into the skin tissue as the implant is absorbed. This characteristic ensures that an optimal level of dermal hydration is maintained and leads to a lasting improvement in skin elasticity.

Photorajeunissement

IPL/BBL

Photorejuvenation

Photorejuvenation uses pulses of light to target dark pigments beneath the skin. It can help reduce the appearance of dark circles caused by hyperpigmentation by breaking down melanin deposits.

In addition, IPL/BBL can stimulate collagen production, which can improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of age-related dark circles.

Bags under the eyes can be caused by several factors.

Water retention

Excess salt in the diet, allergies, or alcohol consumption can lead to water retention, which often manifests as bags under the eyes.

Aging

With age, the tissues around the eyes, including some supporting muscles, weaken. The fat that helps support the eyes can then shift into the lower eyelid, giving a puffy appearance.

Lack of sleep

As with dark circles, a lack of sleep can worsen the appearance of bags under the eyes.

Genetic factors

Some people are more likely to develop bags under their eyes due to their genetics.

Treatment for the pocket

Ultherapy

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin.

By strengthening the tissues beneath the skin, this treatment can help tighten and firm the skin, thus reducing the appearance of under-eye bags caused by sagging skin.

Venus Concept

Venus Legacy/Freeze

Venus Legacy and Venus Freeze technologies use a combination of multipolar radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic fields to heat the deep layers of the skin. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which firms the skin and improves its elasticity.

Heating tissues can also help improve blood and lymphatic circulation, which can reduce fluid retention, a common cause of under-eye bags.
