Tips and Tricks to Prevent Puffy Eyes
We all know that dealing with puffiness can be a real challenge, but here's the scoop: it's much easier to prevent it than to treat it. In this blog post, I'll walk you through various methods to treat puffiness and more importantly, I'll share the key steps you can take to prevent puffy eyes from occurring in the first place – especially during the holiday season.
Mechanical Devices for Massage: If you're anything like me, you probably have a variety of devices at home. Tools like facial rollers and massagers can activate your lymphatics and help fluid drainage. Remember, it's not about speed; it's about ensuring that your lymphatic drainage is efficient.
Preventing Puffy Eyes:
Now, let's talk about how to avoid puffiness altogether.
Be cautious with filler placement: If you're considering dermal fillers, avoid placing them in the midline area under your eyes. Opt for lateral cheek and lower orbit areas instead to minimize the risk of swelling.
When it comes to combating puffy eyes, remember that there is no magical quick fix. Your body needs time to process excess fluid. However, armed with these tips and prevention methods, you'll be better equipped to tackle puffiness and maintain a refreshed appearance.
