Just a simple eye cream can make a big difference
The skin around your eyes shows the earliest signs of ageing because this area is the thinnest and most sensitive than the rest of your body. It contains fewer oil glands and collagen fibres, leading to dryness, droopiness, lines, and wrinkles. In addition, the constant movement of muscles with facial expressions stretches the skin and makes you look older and tired.
As the eye area is so delicate and can get damaged easily, using eye creams, avoiding the sun, quitting smoking, and trying blood facials, injectables like dermal fillers and mint threads can help minimize the ageing signs around your eyes.
The Importance of Using Eye Creams
Most people wonder why they need a separate cream for their eye area when they already use a moisturizer on the face. However, the skin around your eyes is thin and shows ageing signs faster than other areas of your face. The thinness makes it more delicate, vulnerable, and prone to allergic reactions than the facial skin. That’s why the soft skin around your eyes needs an extra dose of TLC, which a regular moisturizer might not be able to deliver.
In addition, the skin around your eyes also gets a much greater workout. Whenever you move your eyes, whether squint, smile or widen them in surprise, you use your muscles around your eyes. With time, factors like dryness and loss of collagen and elastin lead to the formation of wrinkles commonly known as crow’s feet. Integrating an eye cream into your daily skincare routine helps minimize wrinkles and tackle skin concerns like dryness, puffiness, dark circles, and pigmentation.
What Ingredients to Consider in an Eye Cream?
Eye creams can do wonders with the right formulation. However, it should be free from toxins, chemicals, animal byproducts, and artificial fragrances. Here are some ingredients you should consider in an eye cream.
- Caffeine- is a fantastic antiaging ingredient that boosts tired-looking skin and reduces the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
- Peptides- are the amino acids that makeup proteins like collagen and elastin, contributing to firming the undereye area.
- Vitamin C- is a potent antioxidant that minimizes the appearance of dark spots, evens skin tone, and makes your skin glow.
- Hyaluronic Acid- occurs naturally in the body and provides bounce and resilience to the skin.
- Squalane- is an incredibly hydrating ingredient that mimics sebum and provides a plumping effect.
- Retinol- reduces skin discolouration, plumps, and firms the skin

Blood Facial for Undereye Wrinkles
A Blood facial is a natural non-surgical solution to treat undereye circles and bags. The practitioner extracts the patient’s own blood and separates the plasma. This yellow-looking plasma contains valuable collagen and growth factors. As a result, it acts as a personal regenerative serum. When the doctor injects it into the problematic areas, it boosts the cells in your skin and stimulates their ability to repair and rejuvenate the tissues.
Injecting the platelet-rich plasma in the undereye area helps the skin to regain its elasticity and plumpness. In addition, it repairs weakened collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin on top of the dark circles under your eyes becomes thicker and healthier. This reduces eye puffiness and gives you a fresher, rejuvenated look.
Dermal Fillers for Undereye Wrinkles
Undereye fillers contain hyaluronic acid that treats volume lofand dark areas under the eyes. Dermal filler is a non-surgical and minimally invasive procedure and is generally considered safe if performed by a qualified doctor. The tear trough fillers effectively soften the wrinkles and the hollowed-out look and help fade dark circles.
Hyaluronic acid-containing fillers are transparent gels that mimic the natural substance in your body to support collagen production and boost the plumpness and smoothness of the skin.
Mint Threads for Undereye Wrinkles
Mint threads are inserted underneath the skin to lift effectively sagging skin. The procedure does not involve surgery and is minimally invasive, safe, and effective in-office treatment with little downtime when performed by an experienced physician.
Mint threads lift the undereye bags or circles, regenerate and tighten the skin. It is a new and innovative type of facelift that makes you look younger and more beautiful.
Additional Skincare Tips for Undereye Wrinkles
Be gentle with eye makeup removal because the skin around your eyes is very thin. Avoid applying pressure on your eyes because it can lead to the development of wrinkles and fine lines.
Sun exposure plays a significant role in skin ageing. Therefore, always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin against UVA and UVB rays.
You can try an eye massage to reduce puffiness. It improves blood circulation, boosts lymphatic drainage, and illuminates the undereye eye area.
