The cost of the different removal methods

The use of home remedies to remove bags under the eyes is quite inexpensive. It can vary depending on the type of remedy you buy. For example, a pack of green tea costs about 2 euros, whereas a bottle of hyaluronic acid gel costs about 25 euros.

If one decides to remove the bags under the eyes surgically, one can expect costs of about 2000-3500 Euros. The costs are not covered by the health insurance, as this is a cosmetic procedure. Before the operation it is advisable to make an appointment at the practice to get a cost estimate, because the costs of an operation vary from practice to practice. Although laser treatment is cheaper than surgery, it must be performed more often. Here too, it is advisable to seek prior consultation.

The swollen tear sacs after sleeping

Especially in the morning after getting up the eyes look puffy. The bags under the eyes may bulge and give the face a tired expression. There are many reasons for this.

The flat position when lying down makes it difficult for the lymph to drain. As a result, the lymph fluid can collect under the eyelids. A sleepless night also has a negative effect on the lymphatic drainage and leads to swelling.

Since the skin under the eyelids is very fine, an accumulation of fluid in this area is particularly noticeable. If you have consumed a lot of salt the night before, the tear sacs may also be swollen. Salt changes the osmolarity of the vessels and can lead to water retention.

Alcohol can also lead to the same symptoms. If you often have swollen eyes and want to get rid of them, a low-salt and balanced diet is recommended. In women, water retention is also caused by hormones.

During menstruation, this is increasingly observed. Besides these factors, heredity and age also play a role. With increasing age, the connective tissue becomes weaker and “gives way”.

To reduce the swollen bags under the eyes, the lower eyelid can be cooled with a cold object. This causes the blood vessels to contract and the swelling to subside. You can also use some of the home remedies mentioned above.
