What to Do About Under Eye Wrinkles
Under eye wrinkles are often the result of overexposure to the sun and the increase in free radical production caused by it.
Until recently, it was believed that the kind of damage done by free radicals was permanent.
Only cosmetic surgery, which is not very effective on the area under the eyes, was an option.
Today, we know that topically applied creams work to repair sun damage and stimulate the production of new cells and fibers.
The skin beneath the eyes is thinner than other areas of the face.
Because of that, it is more easily damaged and begins to show the signs of age, faster.
The production of new cells and fibers decreases with age.
The fatty layer of tissue (deep beneath the skin's layers) becomes thinner.
Since, the area beneath the eyes is thinner anyway; the result is dark circles and bags or wrinkling, while the rest of your face may still have a youthful appearance.
That explains the cause of the problem, but what do we do about it.
How do we get rid of under eye wrinkles? My suggestion is a complete approach.
While some of the steps you will read about below or more effective than others, each of them is helpful.
Imagine how much good the combination of all of them can do.
Of course, each step may not be necessary in your case.
If you answer "yes" to the question at the beginning of each section, you can skip it.
Do you get enough sleep and are you sleeping between the hours of 11PM and 3AM EST? Under eye wrinkles are often accompanied by dark circles.
In our younger days, we often saw them after a late night.
A little cover-up did the trick for the day.
If we were able to get a good night's sleep on the following night, the dark circles would fade away, especially if we got to bed early.
That's because between the hours of 11PM and 3AM, or around there, the body produces human growth hormone, which keeps the skin thick and tight.
Miss out on those hours and you miss out on those hormones.
Do you get enough antioxidants in your diet? Antioxidants prevent and repair sun damage, the most common cause of under eye wrinkles.
Fruits and vegetables are the primary sources, but recent studies indicate that the antioxidants found in green tea are particularly effective at protecting the skin from damaging UV rays of sun.
Do you use an antioxidant rich moisturizer every night and a nourishing eye gel, every day? Numerous clinical studies have shown that applying antioxidants directly to the skin is more effective than anything else.
Within six weeks time, a cream containing coenzyme Q10 has been shown to reverse wrinkling and sun damage by an average of 30%.
Daily eye gels are the best cure for under eye wrinkles.
You just need to make sure that the ingredients are all natural.
Look for compounds called EYELISS and HALOXYL.
They are the most effective.
You are sure to be pleased with the results.
