Follow These Steps to Get Rid of Under Eye Wrinkles

There are a few simple and natural steps to try if you are looking to eliminate under eye wrinkles without expensive and potentially risky surgery. These lifestyle changes and easily available products can go a long way to improving your under eye wrinkles and your overall health as well. 

Step 1

Getting enough sleep can be a challenge as we age but quality sleep can help you avoid a host of health issues. And believe it or not, your skin benefits from proper sleep as well. According to WebMD and Yale dermatologist Nicholas Perricone, MD, when we don’t get enough quality sleep, our body’s produce excess cortisol which actually breaks down skin cells. When we get adequate rest, our bodies produce more human growth hormone which helps our skin maintain elasticity, making it less likely to wrinkle. 

Step 2

Eating a healthy diet and the “right” foods can make all the difference in getting rid of wrinkles, even under your eyes. The antioxidants that come from eating a diet full of fruits and vegetables can help to combat skin damage and fight the free radicals that can contribute to wrinkles. Eating more fish, especially those high in Omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, can also help keep your skin looking younger.

Step 3

Sun damage is one of the major causes of wrinkles overall, not just under the eyes. But it’s not hard to imagine that squinting into the sun is not a great way to avoid, let alone get rid of, under eye wrinkles. Make sure you wear appropriate sunglasses, wear a hat and sunscreen with a high SPF whenever you are out in the sun. 

Step 4

Don’t over wash your face. This may seem counter intuitive but washing your face can strip it of natural oils and dry out your skin. A better option would be to use a gentle cleanser. And rather than a typical anti-aging serum, a basic moisturizer can do wonders to keep those under eye wrinkles to a minimum. 

Step 5

Topical treatments can be a big help.  However, wrinkle treatment fads come and go, so seek out a proven professional skin care line and consult with a trained skincare practitioner to help you decide the best products to minimize your wrinkles and repair sun damage. 

Step 6 

And don’t forget about Celluma Light Therapy! When it comes to aging, a significant factor that leads to wrinkles and fine lines is inadequate collagen levels. Collagen is the main structural protein found in your skin and other connective tissue. Collagen literally holds our bodies together. 

Fibroblast cells are responsible for producing collagen and elastin, the two most common proteins in connective tissue. However, as we age, our fibroblasts become compromised resulting in lower levels of these proteins. Proven red and near-infrared wavelengths are utilized in the Celluma SERIES of LED light therapy devices to combat the signs of aging. These specific wavelengths of light energy are clinically verified to enhance your body's natural ability to generate collagen and elastin by activating the fibroblast cells. 

Uniform delivery of the light energy is crucial to successful energy absorption by the cells. For this reason, we designed each of our Celluma products to conform closely to the area of the body being treated resulting in the unmatched ability to deliver the optimal amount of restorative light energy in each session. Products such as our Celluma PRO can be formed into a C-shape to treat facial wrinkles and fine lines while you lie comfortably on your back.
