TL;DR Characteristics of youthful lower eyelid: Short eyelid-cheek junction, fuller and lower eyelid, healthy and voluminous eyes contribute to a youthful appearance. Factors contributing to under-eye aging: Loss of lower eyelid fat and puffiness contribute to under-eye aging, resulting in hollowing and dark circles. Treatment options for under-eye aging: Fillers, fat transfer, transcutaneous lower eyelid blepharoplasty, skin pinch, botox injections, and PlasmoDerm are effective treatments for addressing under-eye aging concerns. Fillers and fat transfer: These treatments replace lost volume in the under-eye area, improving appearance and reducing the appearance of hollowing and dark circles. Consultation at CNF in Bengaluru: CNF offers advanced treatments for under-eye aging, providing personalized consultations to determine the most suitable treatment for individual needs. A glowing and youthful face always makes you look the best. As you grow older , you can see multiple aging effects on your skin, prominently in the eyelid portion. Since this region shows aging signs because of growing older or genes, you start looking tired.  Fatigue or aging gets visible the most at the lower eyelid level. The aging related suborbicularis oculi fat pad (SOOF) loss can make the under-eye area look unattractive. However, the best facial rejuvenation treatments help in managing the lower eyelid portion and making you look and feel younger than your age. This post outlines the best under-eye aging treatments.  But before that, let’s discuss the expectations of a youthful lower lid, how aging looks, when genes play a role in lower lid, various elements included in aging, why this portion causes darkness and available tools to treat under-eye aging. Keep reading.  What a Perfectly Youthful Lower Eyelid Looks Like? The perfectly youthful lower eyelid looks attractive and bright. The “eyelid cheek junction”, i.e., the distance between eyelids and cheeks visible on the frontal and profile views. This distance is short and the eyes start appearing hollower as the distance increases.  Here are the key characteristics of an ideal youthful lower eyelid:  You will always look tired, dull and aesthetically unpleasing if your under-eye skin is puffy. A young person usually has a mostly smooth lower eyelid area. The major portion of the convex flat lower eyelid that passes to your cheek has no visible depressions. You can get puffy contour asymmetries with the hanging extra skin.   How the Lower Eyelid Portion Ages?  The lower eyelid area ages with two simultaneously occurring factors below: One factor is loss in the lower eyelid fat that develops a fat pad sitting under your bone, which moves into your cheeks , known as the soup. The sun orbicularis oculi fat pad is positioned under the orbicularis oculi muscle. Then, the fat pad diminishes from the bony eyelid down to your cheek in aged eyes. The eyes start looking hollow and hollowing stretches from the corner of eyes, the medial canthal portion to the eyes’ outer area, the lateral cancer portion.The full orbital rim and crescent shaped bone outline gets visible. With aging, soft tissues get added in the form of extra skin (dermatochalasis) in the lower eyelid portion. Loss of excess fat occurs in the orbital rim to the eyelashes. The eyelid cheek junction has no relation with the eyelids. So, the lower eyelid cheek junction loses fat. Sometimes, this region also gets eyes puffy. Aging is the combination of excess soft tissues and deficient fat because of which your lower eyelid looks darker than before. When you are young, your eyes tend to look much more attractive and brighter than as an adult. Your youth is the short lid cheek junction, while aging is a long lid cheek junction. Once these two things happen simultaneously, the eyelid cheek junction distance increases.  The Tools in the Toolbox  Below are the various kinds of tools which can treat your under-eye aging: When it comes to replacing excess skin in your under-eye area, fillers can do wonders by eliminating the excess skin and fat. The doctor examines the lower eyelid portion and perfectly restores the lower eyelid portion, which makes you look fresh and younger than your age. The fillers don’t change your looks but enhance the shape of your eyes. The volume fillers contain hyaluronic acid, when injected in under eyes, add volume to that area. Such fillers are available in many brands, like Juvederm.  The broad HA fillers contain hyaluronic acid, the naturally forming body part. The natural form of hyaluronic acid breaks in almost a day if you had to inject it inside your body. The manufacturers cross link such elements during the cross-linking process which creates a situation that makes it tougher for your body to break down. When excess hyaluronic acid is injected into your skin, it soaks up water. Once hyaluronic acid is injected into a thin lower eyelid portion, it gets boggy, puffy and bluish. This is a phenomenon, known as the tinyl effect. Plus, the fillers don’t subside in the under eye area the way fillers diminish in other body parts.  You may always see some traces of the hyaluronic fillers under the eye area. If you inject excess fillers in the under-eye region, it would look quite weird for 2 to 10 years. The under-eye area gets discolored and looks a little puffy.  HA fillers treatment can always work as a treatment to reduce extra volume under your eyes. A quarter to 1/3th of a filler syringe is required at each side if your teardrop has noticeably the least volume loss. You aren’t going to experience any complications after getting HA filler injections when you take this quantity once a year. Fillers can be the right treatment for people who are in their 30s and early 40s if the volume in their under-eye area decreases slowly with aging.  Fat transfer helps in treating the under-eye region after approximately 1 syringe is injected  in that area.  The result may not be aesthetically pleasing as the hyaluronic acid injected into that region causes swelling and puffiness. The outcome gets worse when you inject hyaluronic

TL;DR Hair loss can be caused by various factors such as genetics, hormonal imbalances, stress, and health issues, necessitating a comprehensive examination and diagnosis by a hair health specialist. Beauty salons primarily focus on aesthetic enhancements rather than addressing the underlying causes of hair fall, making them insufficient for treating excessive hair loss. Medical treatments offered by clinics, such as Clinic Next Face, involve identifying the exact causes of hair fall through specialized tests and providing tailored solutions to promote hair regrowth and prevent further loss. Salon treatments like keratin, botox, and protein treatments may improve hair texture and appearance temporarily but do not address the root causes of hair fall or promote long-term regrowth. Over-the-counter solutions and salon products containing harsh chemicals can exacerbate hair fall by damaging hair follicles and weakening the scalp, highlighting the importance of seeking medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment. Long-term solutions for hair fall may include medication, hair transplant surgery, and laser therapy, depending on the severity and underlying causes of the condition. Losing 50 to 100 hairs every day is common as a segment of the normal hair growth cycle. Most people get back their lost hair and have a head full of hair. However, if you lose excessive strands of hair every day, not getting them back and you start looking baldish from the front, it’s not a normal hair fall but a matter of concern. Excessive hair fall may occur because of aging, stress, genetics, hormonal imbalance, and any health issues. With our advanced treatment, you can get rid of consistently excess hair fall. People tend to. rush to salons but they can’t stop your rainfall as they can only make your hair look beautiful but can’t increase its density. At Clinic Next Face, our doctor checks your hair fall condition, identifies the exact causes, and performs the right treatment to give you a head full of hair. Understanding Hair Fall: A Brief Overview Hair fall, also called “hair loss” or “alopecia”, is caused due to a complication in the hair production cycle of your body. All your body parts may experience hair loss. However, your scalp mostly experiences hair fall. The scalp hair follows the cycle of growth, rest, fall, and regeneration. Once this cycle breaks or hair follicles get damaged, your hair may start falling faster than it regenerates, which causes severe thinning, hair falls in patches, and receding hairline.  Alopecia is an autoimmune disorder, i.e., your immune system damages tissues, like hair follicles. The damaged follicles cause hair fall and prevent the growth of new hair. People of all ages may suffer from severe hair fall suddenly without any previous indications. Hair tends to fall from your scalp in patches and doesn’t cause any pain.  If not treated on time, consistent hair fall may lead to full hair loss or alopecia totalis. Our doctor can find the causes of your hair fall and suggest the right treatment to fix the concern. The Salon Illusion: Expectations vs. Reality People tend to visit salons frequently for various hair treatments with the hope of getting thicker and voluminous hair. However, salon treatments can make your hair more manageable, shinier, healthier, and look better, but they can’t fix the issues from the roots. Plus, you need touch-ups after every few months to maintain the look.  With bond-building treatments, you can repair breakages in hair and make them stronger, thicker, and easily manageable. Olaplex is a pre-shampoo treatment that repairs bind breakages caused due to coloring, heat styling, and other environmental reasons.  Hair extensions are one of the quickest and short-term solutions to get a head full of hair. However, none of these solutions fixes the inherent and exact cause of your hair fall. They offer aesthetic but not permanent solutions to your hair fall. You don’t get new hair on your head. While the advanced treatments at the clinic regrow your hair and gradually stop your hair fall. Part I: The Limits of Beauty Salons When it comes to hair services in beauty salons, you can expect a stunning makeover butcertain limitations. Check the points below to understand the limits of beauty for your hair. The Surface Level Approach: Why Salons Focus on Aesthetics, Not Health You may be experiencing massive hair fall because of health and other issues. Salons can be a great go-to place for hair grooming but not for getting rid of your hair fall issue. They follow the surface-level approach and focus only on aesthetics, not on health.  Nowadays, many salons are offering nourishing spas, deep massages, and Ayurvedic therapies to treat various types of hair texture to grow and maintain your hair. At the salon, you may get solutions to get the desired-looking hair. However, you can never get the required medical treatment to stop hair fall by curing the causes and regrowing your tresses. Cosmetic vs. Medical Treatment: Understanding the Difference The key difference between hair cosmetic and medical treatment is that the former is based on your desires, while the latter is based on your requirements. A doctor is knowledgeable about cosmetic resources besides the different types of hair care products, their utilities, and possible side effects. Thus, they can treat your hair fall and scalp issues depending on your hair type.  Experts in scalp management and hair fall concerns can always identify the exact issues and perform the right medical treatment to fix your concerns. Cosmetic treatment isn’t related to medicated solutions and is customized depending on hair aesthetic goals. Lack of Medical Expertise: Why Stylists Arent Hair Health Specialists.   When people have consistent hair fall, they tend to visit their known hair stylists whom they trust. They can style your hair suited to your face shape and skin tone but can’t stop your hair fall because of their limited medical expertise. You should consult a hair health specialist instead as they are knowledgeable on hair and scalp issues. Hair loss may be due to poor diet, stress, hormonal imbalance, and other factors.

Earlier, skin-whitening products such as fading creams and bleach were very popular among dark-skinned people.

The Role of Melanin in Skin Pigmentation Melanin, a natural pigment in your body, gives color to your skin. Melanocytes, the special cells in your skin, produce melanin. The amount of melanin production in the skin differs in human bodies and ethnicities. As melanocytes disrupt/damage, they produce excess melanin, which causes hyperpigmentation on some or all body parts. It darkens patches of skin, mostly in people with dark skin tones since they have high melanin production. The most common types of pigmentation are sun damage spots, melasma, and post-inflammation because of acne. The correct amount of melanin in your skin acts as an antioxidant by damaging hazardous free radicals emitted by pollution, sunlight, and smoking. You can consult our doctor to get rid of hyperpigmentation with the right treatment. Identifying Common Skin Concerns Related to Brightness Here are some of the most common skin concerns that reduce the brightness of your skin: Acne Acne are breakout that can occur on any body part in the form of whiteheads, blackheads, cysts, nodules, and pimples.

Actinic Keratosis Actinic Keratosis is a thick skin patch, which usually occurs on body parts that are consistently exposed to the sun. The skin patch usually looks pink and may have the same color as the surrounding skin in dark-skinned people. Melasma Melasma is a skin disorder that develops dark patches on body parts and causes discoloration. It may fade away in a year or get permanent making your skin look darker. Eczema Eczema is white,/yellow flaking scaly patches, which may itch or look oily. The light skin may have a red rash, which may look gray, purple, or brown on dark skin. The area with the rashmay also have hair loss. Psoriasis Psoriasis causes defined and scaly patches on the skin, which can be asymptomatic or itchy. Dark-skinned people may also develop purplish or dark brown patches on their skin. Natural Remedies vs. Clinical Treatments: A Comparison When it comes to getting a brighter skin tone, you can try some natural remedies at home. Hereare the natural home remedies that can brighten your skin gradually:   Apply lemon juice diluted with water as it removes dark spots and evens out your skin tone.   Use aloe vera gel on your face every day as it soothes your skin, removes dark spots, and gives you an even skin tone.   Apply a mixture of honey and yogurt to exfoliate and moisturize your skin.   Mix turmeric with milk or yogurt to apply to your skin to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Apply SPF of at least 30 before stepping outside in the sun.  Clinical treatments comprise a variety of methods to brighten out and even out your complexion. The doctor may ask you to use OTC products and get chemical peels or do laser therapy to remove dark spots and brighten your skin tone. The right clinical treatment can control melanin production or increase cell turnover in your skin, which lightens your skin tone. Natural home remedies can give you a brighter skin tone in months or even a year with the everyday application of the best organic products. Clinical treatments can deliver immediate treatments, which stay for years with proper maintenance.

To reduce dark circles, adopt a healthy lifestyle with sufficient sleep, hydration, and a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. Avoid excessive salt, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Regular exercise and limited sun exposure can help improve skin health and reduce the appearance of dark circles. There are various treatments available for dark circles, including dermal fillers, PlasmoDerm injections, under-eye peels, Hydra-rich injections, microneedling, laser therapy (IPL), and topical serums containing ingredients like Vitamin C and hydroquinone.

However, you can get rid of them with our advanced under-eye brightening treatments in Bengaluru. At CNF, the doctor checks your dark circle condition and suggests the right treatment to remove it and give you brighter under-eye skin.    Understanding Under Eye Dark Circles. Under eye dark circles can occur among people of all ages, genders, complexions, and ethnicities. Different types of skin have different levels of dark circles. Dark circles under your eyes are more common in some groups of people, such as elderly people, darker-skin-toned people, and those who have a family history of having them. Causes of Dark Circles. Here are the key causes of dark circles. Aging. Aging is one of the key reasons to cause dark circles as the skin under your eyes usually sags and gets thinner as you grow older. The collagen and fat production may decrease which maintains the skin elasticity. As a consequence, the dark blood vessels under your skin become more visible, which darkens the under-eye area. You may also get tear troughs, which make you look older or tired.  Eyestrain. Any form of eyestrain can increase the size of blood vessels surrounding your eyes, which may cause dark circles.  Allergies. Allergies cause dark circles as your body secrete histamines to fight against the invader when having an allergic reaction. Your eyes may get red, puffy, and itchy. When you scratch your itchy skin, it may cause swelling, inflammation, and broken blood vessels that may cause post-inflammatory pigmentation.  Fatigue. Lack of sleep or oversleeping may make your skin look pale and dull. The dark tissues and blood vessels under your skin may look more prominent. Sleep deprivation may accumulate fluid under your eyes, which makes them look puffy. Dark circles may be the shadows created by puffy eyelids. Sun Exposure. Long-time sun exposure or injuries may form dark circles under your eyes, also called post-inflammatory pigmentation. Excessive sun exposure produces excess melanin, which may accumulate under your eyes causing hyperpigmentation.   Anemia. Anemia is a condition when RBCs are less than normal that may make you feel weak, tired, dizzy, short of breath, and light-headedness. An anemic patient tends to have pale skin and dark circles under the eyes. Dehydration. Dehydration may develop POH and may make the skin under your eyes look dull. Your eyes may appear sunken because of the way eyes are close to the underneath bone. Ocular Hypotensive Drugs. Ophthalmic solutions, which treat glaucoma, can cause POH. They most tend to occur in 3 to 6 months post-initiating bimatoprost treatment. Genetics. Genetics may develop POH, which can be an inherited characteristic noticed early in childhood. Your dark circles may darken or lighten over time.  Lifestyle Factors. Poor lifestyle habits, such as alcohol consumption and smoking, may cause dark circles. Lifestyle Changes for Brighter Eyes Here are the simple lifestyle changes you can make to remove dark circles and get brighter eyes. Sleep Well Everyday. Lack of sleep is likely to cause dark circles. If you don’t sleep enough, it may worsen the condition of your existing dark circles. Sleep for at least 8 hours every day without any disturbance to lighten the dark circles. Hydrate and Moisturize Your Skin. Dehydration causes dark circles under your eyes. As most of your body contains water, it’s an essential part of your diet. Insufficient water intake may cause puffiness and blasting around your eyes. So, drink 3 to 4 liters of water every day to keep your skin hydrated.  Lack of moisture causes dark circles. Moisturize your skin twice after washing your face to maintain healthy skin. Eat Healthy Foods. Eating foods rich in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids can help in reducing and preventing dark circles. Antioxidants protect your skin from toxins that damage your skin. Beetroot, citrus fruits, and dark chocolates are the most effective antioxidant-rich foods. Fatty acids boost blood flow to your skin cells which removes dark circles. Walnuts and salmon are the two foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Decrease Salt Intake  Salt contains sodium that dehydrates your body. Junk and highly processed foods contain high sodium. Eating sodium-rich or other foods causing dehydration may deepen the dark circles. So, reduce the consumption of salt, the key ingredient of most foods, to remove dark circles.  Quit Smoking Smoking can cause dark circles, various diseases, and even cancer. Cigarettes contain chemicals, which dehydrate your skin and may decrease the production of collagen, melanin, and elastin, which decreases skin elasticity

Your skin may also develop freckles because of heredity.  Solar Lentigines Solar lentigines, also called sun spots or liver spots, are pigmented spots with clearly defined edges. They may develop on all body parts and have various colors, such as black and dark brown.
