Bags under eyes

Bags under the eyes, also known as periorbital puffiness, refer to swelling or sagging of the lower eyelids, often giving a tired or aged appearance. They occur due to fluid retention, weakened muscles around the eyes, fat accumulation, or poor circulation. Common contributing factors include lack of sleep, stress, allergies, sinus problems, excessive salt intake, aging, hormonal imbalance, or kidney dysfunction. Although usually harmless, they can be a cosmetic concern and may occasionally indicate an underlying health issue.

Homeopathy treats bags under eyes holistically by addressing both the external appearance and the internal causes such as poor circulation, stress, or fluid imbalance. Remedies are chosen based on associated symptoms, constitution, and etiology—whether from aging, allergies, or systemic weakness. Homeopathic medicines help improve skin tone, strengthen connective tissues, enhance lymphatic drainage, and reduce puffiness naturally without side effects.
