Introduction
Long-term late nights or aging may cause the fat under the eyes to gradually atrophy, making the skin thin and less elastic, leading to an oblique wrinkle under the eye. This wrinkle usually extends from the fine lines under the eyes or crow's feet and is located in a noticeable area below the eye, potentially affecting the overall facial aesthetics and making a person appear more tired and aged.
Generally, a diagonal wrinkle under the eye may be an extension of under-eye fine lines or crow's feet. If causing discomfort, timely medical consultation is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:
Long-term lack of sleep or aging may cause the fat under the eyes to gradually atrophy, making the skin thin and less elastic, resulting in a diagonal line under the eye. This wrinkle is usually an extension of under-eye fine lines or crow's feet, located in a noticeable area below the eye, potentially affecting the overall facial aesthetics and making one appear more tired and aged. For those seeking to remove such diagonal wrinkles, it is recommended to undergo a facelift procedure under a physician's guidance. This surgery involves removing the excess loose skin and tightening the skin upwards and backwards to achieve a firmer appearance, thereby reducing wrinkles. The general reference cost for a facelift ranges from 5,000 to 60,000 yuan per session, with visible improvements typically seen within 1–3 months, although complications such as infection, bleeding, or scar hypertrophy may occur.
Maintaining good lifestyle habits, keeping the skin around the eyes moisturized and well-hydrated, ensuring adequate sleep, avoiding prolonged熬夜 and excessive eye strain are beneficial for maintaining eye skin health.
