Effective methods for removing under-eye bags include physical therapy, laser treatment, and surgical procedures. If the under-eye swelling is due to pseudo-edema, cold compresses can help improve the condition. You can wrap ice cubes in a towel and apply them to the under-eye area for cold compression. Laser treatment works by using the thermal effect of laser light to cause contraction of the dermal tissue around the eyes, resulting in skin tightening and lifting. For younger patients whose eyes show no signs of aging or sagging, an internal incision (transconjunctival) surgery may be used; this approach involves minimal trauma, faster recovery, and better postoperative appearance.
