Apart from having thin and delicate skin, there are a few other factors that can make the eye more prone to aging and damage. These include:
There is a lot you can do to reduce or fight signs of aging in the eye area. Here are a few things that can help:
Prolonged and unprotected exposure from the sun can lead to premature or exacerbated signs of aging. Be sure to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day, and don’t forget overlooked areas like the upper eyelid.
You can also benefit from wearing a pair of sunglasses with UV protection. This protects both your eyes and the area around them. It is also important to limit sun exposure, avoid tanning, or seek shade when going out in the sun.
Look for an eye cream or eye serum that can help improve puffiness, dark circles, and other signs of aging. At Cutis Medical Laser Clinics, we have two products that can give this delicate area the extra care and attention it deserves.
Elastifirm Eye Restore with Peptides and Arnica – This contains clinically-proven ingredients that can help improve blood flow and reduce inflammation. The peptides can anti-age your eyes, as they help boost microcirculation and strengthen skin layers. Arnica, on the other, is an anti-inflammatory ingredient that can also improve lines and darkening of the skin. Benefits include:
Elastifirm Eye Repair with Persian Silk Extract – This has collagen- and elastin-boosting ingredients to fight damage from free radicals. It also features Persian Silk Extract, which is proven beneficial in fighting glycation or the process wherein sugar molecules bind to the skin proteins. This contributes to wrinkling and sagging of the skin. Benefits include:
As previously mentioned, the skin around your eyes is thin and delicate. It is important to be gentle during your skin care routine or when removing eye makeup. Be sure not to put too much pressure on the area, as this can increase your risk of having more fine lines. Here are a few helpful tips when applying eyecare products:
Your daily habits can sometimes affect the way you look outside, which include your face and the skin around yourself. The following lifestyle practices can help you take better care of the area for a more youthful appearance.
Botulinum toxin or Botox is US FDA-cleared for smoothing or reducing wrinkles formed due to facial expressions (dynamic wrinkles). It uses a neurotoxin protein that temporarily blocks the signal from a nerve to a muscle. This then relaxes and softens the wrinkles.
It can give your face and the area around your eye a more youthful look by reducing the appearance of crow’s feet, horizontal forehead lines, and frown lines. It takes about two weeks to see the full effects of Botox, with results that can last between 3 and 6 months. Repeated injections are recommended once the effects wear off.
Give the extra care and attention the skin around your eyes deserves. Contact Cutis Medical Laser Clinics in Singapore and schedule a consultation with our aesthetic doctor to find out more about the products and treatments that can give you a more youthful appearance.
