Eyebags are the bulges under the eyes that make us look tired and aged. Eye bag removal will make your eyes look fresher and younger, which is why it is a sought-after aesthetic treatment in Singapore. Eyebags occur due to a combination of many factors, which include a loose lower eyelid and excessive fat in the fat pads of the eyelids. Some of us have eyebags that appear under our eyes even when we are young. Thankfully, these eyebags can be easily treated with eye bag removal treatments.
These treatments are divided into surgical methods and non-surgical eye bag removal treatments, such as lower blepharoplasty. Nonsurgical treatments include aesthetic treatments such as fillers and Agnes Fat reduction.
As we age, the skin under the eyes loses collagen and its firmness. Skin laxity of the lower eyelid occurs, and there is excessive loose skin. This gives rise to the appearance of wrinkles. In addition, the lower lid starts to sag, giving an “eye bag” appearance. Collagen loss also occurs in the fat pad and ligaments of the eyelids. As a result, the underlying fat pads start to bulge out. The cheek fat also starts to droop, and there is a loss of smooth contours from the eye area to the cheek, resulting in a ring to form under the eyes.
For some of us, we are genetically predisposed to have an excessive fat pad in the lower eyelid area. These fat pads bulge out and give us eyebags. These eyebags make us look lethargic and tired. Typically, such eye bag appearance runs in the family. Unlike eyebags caused by ageing, the skin is usually firm and taut and without wrinkles.
Bone loss also occurs in ageing, and as a result, the cheekbones get resorbed. The loss of bone support in the cheek area worsens the sagging of the lower eyelid skin and bulging of the eyelid fat pads.
Both lower eyelid pigmentation issues and eyelid skin circulation issues, such as venous congestion, give rise to dark eye rings (or dark circles) and accentuate the existing eyebags. If such conditions occur concurrently with eyebags, laser pigmentation treatments, and vascular laser treatments will need to be considered for the lower lid.
Sun damage is one of the leading causes of skin damage to the lower eyelid and the face. Ultraviolet rays initiate inflammatory and oxidative processes that damage the skin and reduce its collagen content. That leads to distinct wrinkles and eyebags.
Certain medical conditions, such as thyroid problems, can lead to excessive swelling around the eyes and give rise to an eye bag appearance.
The reason why our eyes look puffier in the morning is because of water retention around the eyes as a result of hours of lying in a supine position. A high salt diet can also lead to excessive water retention and swelling in the lower eyelids. This gives rise to eye bags in the lower eyelids.
Allergies cause inflammation and swelling around the eyes, making the eyelid area look puffier and causing an eye bag appearance.
Under-eye fillers are a simple, office-based non-surgical procedure. It involves placing the fillers over the eyebag area around the eye bags’ grooves and troughs. As a result, the eyebags are concealed, and the eyes appear immediately refreshed. Under experienced hands, the procedure can be performed in less than 15 minutes without any side effects. Under-eye fillers for eye bags are most suited for mild to moderate eye bags. It is a relatively simple office procedure and minimally invasive compared to eye bag surgery, and can yield a more than 50% improvement in appearance. Under-eye fillers or eye bag fillers can last up to 2 years or more, depending on the choice of fillers selected.
When eyebag fillers are done carefully, and under experienced hands, it is a very safe procedure with a low risk of complications. Nevertheless, the following are the inherent risks of the procedure:
Agnes' eye bag treatment is the common non-surgical eyebag removal treatment in Ozhean Zoey. The reason is that this is an effective eyebag removal procedure. In addition, the skin around the eye is also tightened, and the wrinkles in the eye region are visibly reduced. How is fat removal done safely and with minimal discomfort?
There is a minimal risk of under-eye threads damaging any important structures as long as the threads are inserted at the right tissue plane. Thread extrusion, which is the threads sticking out of the skin, can occur if the threads are places wrongly and too superficially. This can be easily avoided with proper insertion techniques by the doctor. Bruising can potentially occur because the lower eyelid is surrounded by a rich plexus of blood vessels. This is minimised with gentle, careful techniques. Bruising is also minimised with pre-treatment with Ozhean Zoey’s ultrasound treatment.
Costs of under-eye filler start from $900 onwards.

Agnes is a micro-needle radiofrequency device that administers radio frequency energy, stimulating collagen remodelling and production in the skin. As a result, loose, saggy skin gets tightened. A different treatment tip will target deeper into the eyebag fat pads. Temperatures are raised high enough (beyond 70 degrees) to coagulate the fat and also to liquefy it. As the radio frequency was delivered shot by shot in a controlled, safe manner, the treatment helps to get rid of excess fat without the risk of the heat spreading to the surrounding tissues to cause any damage. Agnes' eyebag offers distinctly visible results in each session.
For very serious eyebags or eyebags with severe skin laxity, the treatment of choice is still surgery or lower blepharoplasty for eyebag removal. Lower blepharoplasty is divided into two types: 1) scarless eye bag removal or transconjunctival blepharoplasty, and 2) External blepharoplasty.
This surgery involves approaching the eye bag region from the conjunctival (the red part of the eyelid). The lower eyelid is retracted with the help of an assistant, and the conjunctivae of the eyelid are exposed. The surgery is done with local anaesthesia. An excision is made here, and after tissue (eyebag removal is done), dissection, the fat pads are exposed and removed. Caution is made to reduce any bleeding, as that will affect postoperative bruising.
As with all plastic surgery, the results and the recovery post-surgery are very dependent on the skill of the plastic surgeons. Scarless eyebag removal only removes the eyebag but does not treat the overlying loose skin. Complications include severe eye bruising, loose skin and wrinkles, more evident post-surgery (due to excess skin).
Lower blepharoplasty is costly in Singapore. Transconjunctival blepharoplasty can cost from $5000 onwards.
The eyes are the window to the soul, and we want your eyes to speak life. The appropriate eyebag treatment for you will have to depend on your age, the degree of skin laxity, and the severity of the eyebag bulge. Our doctors will examine you to assess that and prescribe the most relevant treatments for you.
