Hi there, Thank you for sharing your concern — eye bags are a very common issue that can become more noticeable with age due to thinning skin, loss of collagen, and fat redistribution under the eyes. You’re definitely not alone in noticing this change in your 40s. Here’s what can help: Topical treatments: Use an eye cream with ingredients like caffeine, retinol, peptides, or hyaluronic acid. These can help tighten, smooth, and hydrate the under-eye area. Lifestyle factors: Getting enough sleep, reducing salt intake, staying hydrated, and avoiding rubbing the eyes can all reduce puffiness. In-office options: Dermatologic treatments such as dermal fillers (to restore lost volume), laser resurfacing, or radiofrequency tightening can significantly improve under-eye bags. Medical-grade skincare: Products like SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Eye Complex or ones containing niacinamide can help with firmness and texture over time. Remember — eye bags are often a natural part of aging, and even small, consistent improvements can make a noticeable difference.
