Bags under the eyes occur when weakened and sagging skin relaxes, forming a pouch. The fat pads located under the eyes slip down to fill the space.

Excess fluid in the body can also pool there, making the lower lids look even puffier and more swollen. Shadows and discolored skin under the eyes cause eye bags to look more prominent.
Under-eye bags are primarily a cosmetic issue and usually are harmless. But sometimes they can be a sign of an underlying medical condition.
The most common cause of bags under the eyes is aging. As we get older, we experience a loss of fat padding and collagen, the major component of connective tissues in skin, muscles and other body parts.

Lower collagen levels cause the skin and underlying muscles all over the body to lose elasticity and tone. This sagging is especially noticeable around the eyes because the skin there is very thin.
Other factors that contribute to the development of bags under the eyes include fluid retention, chronic medical conditions like thyroid disease, infections, allergies, stress, eye fatigue, smoking, lack of sleep and inherited facial features.
Remedies for bags under eyes
identifying the underlying cause of bags under the eyes is the first step in choosing a remedy.
For example, if eye bags are a result of aging or run in your family, a cosmetic solution like plastic surgery may be the best option for getting rid of them.
Know up front that cosmetic eye surgery done solely to improve appearance will not be covered by medical insurance.
When bags under the eyes are the result of environmental or underlying health issues, there are some simple home remedies and lifestyle changes that may help to lessen their appearance. These include:
- Get plenty of sleep (average 8 hours daily).
- Sleep with your head elevated a few inches to keep fluid from pooling around your eyes.
- Avoid fluids before bedtime and salt throughout the day.
- Use a damp, cool washcloth as a compress on your eyes, preferably while sitting upright. Alternatively, cucumber slices or cold, damp tea bags can be used to help bring down swelling.
- Keep your allergy symptoms under control by avoiding triggers and taking prescription or over-the-counter allergy medications.
- Use cosmetic concealers to cover up dark under-eye shadows.
One popular home remedy for reducing bags under the eyes is the use of hemorrhoid creams. (Yes, really.)
Hemorrhoid creams contain phenylephrine, which constricts blood vessels and can temporarily tighten the skin under the eyes, making eye bags less noticeable. Be careful not to get the cream in your eyes as it could irritate them.
If you’re a smoker, make every effort to quit. Avoiding smoking not only is good for your general health and eyesight — it also will slow down collagen loss that thins the skin. And if you choose to have cosmetic surgery to remove bags under your eyes, you’ll heal quicker if you don't smoke.
There are also wrinkle treatments and skin therapies designed to tighten under-eye skin and reduce puffiness. The list includes chemical peels, laser resurfacing and injectable dermal fillers.
If you’ve tried some or all of the remedies listed above to eliminate the bags under your eyes and aren't satisfied with the results, you may want to consider a more permanent solution.

Cosmetic eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, can smooth out and tighten the skin under the lower eyelids. Blepharoplasty also can be used to treat puffy or drooping eyelids.
You're Welcome
because he's wrong and you don't have bagsarent eyebags fluid? when i touch the bulging part i feel my eye, what does that mean
they can also be caused by downward movement of the fat pad. if you feel your eye underneath the buldge than that just means thatarent eyebags fluid? when i touch the bulging part i feel my eye, what does that mean
protruding eyes would imply orbital decompression would solve the issue but in all of the before-afters i see this problem isnt solvedthey can also be caused by downward movement of the fat pad. if you feel your eye underneath the buldge than that just means that
1) you have poor orbitals
2) your eyes are not deep set (protruding)
if your eyes are not deepset enough then rather than sit inside your skull they will protrude past the bone, pulling your under eyelid up with it giving the appearance of a 'bag'
In the case of poor orbitals the science is much the same. To fill up the empty space between your lower orbitals and your eye the fatpads will be displaced over that area.
