How to Get Rid of Eye Bags: Treatments That Actually Work

If you’re tired of looking tired, you’re not alone. Under-eye bags can be frustrating - especially when eye creams and cooling gels don’t seem to make a dent. The good news is, there are doctor-led treatments that actually work. And they’re available right here in Bali.

At Skin Studio, we offer targeted, clinically backed solutions that go beyond surface fixes to treat the real causes of puffiness, sagging, or tired-looking eyes.

‍

What Causes Eye Bags in the First Place?

Not all eye bags are created equal. Puffiness under the eyes can come from:

• Age-related loss of collagen and skin elasticity
• Fluid retention or poor circulation
• Fat pad displacement over time
• Genetics (yes, thanks Mum)
• Stress, poor sleep, diet or lifestyle habits

It’s also worth noting: dark circles and eye bags aren’t the same thing. Dark circles are usually caused by pigmentation, thin skin, or shadowing - whereas eye bags are typically structural or fluid-related. That’s why they often need different treatments.

‍

What Actually Works? (Not All Eye Creams Are Equal)

Most creams can only hydrate or brighten the skin’s surface. They can’t fix deeper issues like sagging tissue, fluid build-up, or weakened under-eye support.

That’s where advanced treatments come in. At Skin Studio, we focus on non-surgical injectables that restore structure, improve tone, and reduce puffiness - without overfilling or freezing your expression.

Targeted Treatments for Under-Eye Puffiness

Here are our top two doctor-led options for treating under-eye bags and puffiness:

‍

1. NCTF Eye Brightener

This is a targeted injectable cocktail of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid - designed to deeply hydrate and improve tone in the delicate under-eye area. It helps reduce mild puffiness, soften fine lines, and improve skin brightness without adding volume.

‍

2. Rejuran I

This treatment uses polynucleotides (derived from salmon DNA) to strengthen and repair thin under-eye skin. Rejuran I boosts elasticity, improves microcirculation, and supports long-term skin regeneration - making it especially effective for early signs of ageing and crepey skin under the eyes.

‍

What about filler?

Under-eye filler can be helpful for hollowness - not puffiness. If there’s a deep trough or loss of volume under the eye, we may recommend a small amount of filler. But we approach this conservatively and only when clinically appropriate.

‍

What to Expect From Treatment

All under-eye treatments at Skin Studio begin with a consultation to assess your skin, goals, and whether you’re a suitable candidate.

The procedure itself is quick - usually around 30–45 minutes - and performed by our aesthetic doctor using a fine needle or cannula for precision and comfort. Most clients return to normal activities the same day, with only mild swelling or bruising for 24–48 hours.

Results tend to build gradually over 1–2 weeks, with best outcomes seen after a short course of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.

‍

Are You a Good Candidate?

The right treatment depends on the cause of your under-eye bags. If the issue is fluid retention, thin skin, or early sagging, under-eye boosters like NCTF or Rejuran may be ideal. If it’s more about deep hollowing, we may discuss filler. And sometimes, a few lifestyle tweaks go further than you think.

That’s why we offer a free, no-pressure consultation - so you can understand your options and make an informed decision that actually works for you.

FAQs

What causes under-eye bags?

Eye bags can be caused by ageing, fluid retention, fat displacement, or genetics - and they’re often confused with dark circles.

‍

Do eye creams help?

Some can hydrate or brighten, but they won’t address structural or circulatory issues. Deeper treatments are often needed for visible results.

‍

What’s the best treatment for eye bags?

For puffiness or skin laxity, under-eye boosters like Rejuran I or NCTF are highly effective. Filler is only used in specific cases of hollowness.

‍

How long do results take?

You’ll typically see improvements in 1–2 weeks, with further results building after a course of treatments.

‍

Is there downtime?

Minimal. Most clients return to normal activities straight away, with possible mild swelling or bruising for 1–2 days.
