With our non-surgical options for under-eye bag removal, we provide patients with an efficient and stunning way to rejuvenate their facial appearance.

What Is Non-Surgical Under-Eye Bags Treatment?

Non-surgical under-eye bags treatment is a minimally invasive procedure that targets the appearance of under-eye bags. The natural aging process is most commonly the main culprit for this cosmetic concern, although genetics, lifestyle habits, and other factors can also influence them. Under-eye bags can make patients appear tired, run-down, and older than their actual age or how alert and energized they might actually be. By using dermal fillers, we can reduce under-eye bags and puffiness without involving any incisions, scarring, or lengthy recovery.

What Causes Under-Eye Concerns?

Bags, puffiness, and hollowness are all common cosmetic concerns among our patients. These features are caused by changes in the skin and underlying tissues, due to effects such as aging, sun damage, lifestyle choices, and more. However, the impact they can have on confidence and one’s appearance can be at odds with the person experiencing them. We believe looking how you feel is a crucial aspect of enjoying a lasting quality of life, so our treatments aim to reduce these issues so that you can stay at your best.

Benefits of Under-Eye Bag Treatment

There are many benefits to undergoing non-surgical under-eye bag treatment at Aesthetic Beauty in Boise, with each treatment performed by an experienced injector. Some key benefits patients see include:

  • Improved Appearance: The most obvious benefit is a rejuvenated appearance with reduced under-eye bags, hollowness, and puffiness. The result: a more youthful and rested look every day.
  • Boosted Confidence: Many individuals struggle with under-eye bags, feeling self-conscious and unhappy with their appearance. Addressing this concern can boost your confidence and allow you to feel more comfortable in your own skin.
  • Non-Invasive Techniques: Unlike surgical procedures, under-eye bag treatment at Aesthetic Beauty is non-invasive and involves little to no downtime and discomfort, making it a convenient option for individuals who want to avoid surgery.

Non-Surgical Under-Eye Bags Removal Options

At Aesthetic Beauty, Trista Shakeridge’s preferred method for under-eye bags removal involves using dermal fillers. In particular, she uses hyaluronic acid fillers designed to provide a gentler restoration of under-eye volume, smoothing the area out while maintaining a natural look. These treatment sessions can last under half an hour (though time varies) and generally have little to no recovery time. Most patients will be able to come in for treatment and return to their day right after with a renewed appearance.

Is a Non-Surgical Under Eye Bags Treatment Right for Me?

A non-surgical under-eye bags treatment may be the right choice for you if:

  • You have mild to moderate under-eye bags that are not severe enough to require surgery.
  • You are looking for a minimally invasive option with little to no downtime.
  • You want natural-looking results without making any major changes to your appearance.

However, the first step is to book your consultation with Shakeridge to discuss your particular goals. While this non-surgical treatment is open to patients of almost any age, it is essential to go over your options with a board-certified injector, like Trista Shakeridge. Doing so promotes a safe experience with results that best align with your expectations.

Is There a Recovery Period?

One of the significant benefits of non-surgical under-eye bag treatment is the lack of a lengthy recovery period. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure, although some may experience mild swelling or bruising that resolves within a few days (usually 1-2 days at most). Instead of waiting weeks to complete a surgical recovery, our patients can leave our office with a new, unique, and refreshed aesthetic the same day.

Non-Surgical Under-Eye Puffiness Treatment Results

The results of non-surgical under-eye puffiness treatment at Aesthetic Beauty can vary, depending on your case. However, most patients will see a noticeable improvement in the appearance of their under-eye bags and puffiness immediately following their filler session. These results can last for several months, depending on the individual’s unique factors (e.g., activity levels, how fast the body breaks down the filler, etc.). Patients typically will have 1-3 touchup treatments each year to maintain their results, depending on the type of filler used.

Under-Eye Bags FAQs

Two main avenues exist: the surgical approach and the nonsurgical approach. At Aesthetic Beauty, we focus solely on nonsurgical treatments like fillers, lasers, skin tightening, and microneedling to refresh the under-eye area. Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) can be performed by an oculoplastic surgeon, but it is a more invasive approach.

Most adult patients will see notable improvements with only nonsurgical treatments. However, results will depend on factors like age, health, lifestyle, and skin laxity. With the right set of treatments, most patients will not need to resort to surgery for under-eye bags.

Depending on your treatment type and several factors, your results can last from several months to well over a year. These factors include:

  • Type of treatment (fillers, laser, microneedling, etc.)
  • Skin care routine
  • Overall health
  • Lifestyle elements (alcohol, smoking)
  • Staying hydrated
  • Touch-up treatments

Nonsurgical treatments tend to have only minor side effects that resolve within a couple of days. Most commonly, patients may experience mild swelling or bruising around injection sites. For skin treatments, some redness and swelling are normal while healing. Serious complications are extremely rare, especially when working with an experienced injector.

Knowing the precise cost before a consultation is difficult. Each patient’s treatment is tailored to their needs, so we provide personalized quotes based on the procedure plan established in the consultation. That said, the ranges for nonsurgical under-eye bags removal costs include:

  • Fillers: $700+ (depends on number of syringes)
  • Laser Treatments: $1,000+ (depends on number of sessions)
  • Morpheus8 RF Microneedling: $1,000+ (depends on number of sessions)

Good candidates will be:

  • Over 18 years old
  • Have no active skin conditions
  • Want to avoid invasive techniques
  • Have mild to moderate cosmetic concerns

Health and lifestyle factors play the most significant roles in maintaining your results. The three main steps to take include:

  • Caring for Your Skin: Avoid sun exposure, keep your skin clean, maintaining a good skin care routine.
  • Care for Your Health: Avoid smoking and excess alcohol. Focus on a nutritional diet with vitamins and minerals for skin health.
  • Don’t Skip Touch-ups: The occasional touch-up treatment can help keep your results at their peak instead of starting from square one again.
