How to remove swelling under the eyes?

How to remove swelling under the eyes? We have collected the most effective advice on the elimination of edema, as well as the methods of their prevention and treatment.

Puffiness under the eyes often indicates that the body for some reason keeps the fluid in the body, or this fluid is too much. The oedemacular face delivers many problems associated with deteriorating appearance.

What to do in order to quickly remove swelling under the eyes?

Often we come across a situation where, having woken up in the morning and looking in the mirror, we understand that we look, to put it mildly, not very well. What should I do if I need to clean myself up?

First, you need to take a contrast shower. If there is no way to do this, confine yourself to the contrasting facial trays: they activate the metabolic processes in the skin, while the face becomes fresh and the puffiness recedes. Make them not at all difficult: for this you need two bowls - with cool and enough hot water. Alternately, we dip the face into one bowl and the other. If you have a problem with bowls, you can apply compresses: 30 seconds - hot, 5-10 seconds - cold. If there are ice cubes for cocktails in the freezer, you can simply wipe the face with this cube. By the way, many girls for such emergency cases freeze ice, consisting of decoction of herbs, for example, chamomile or linden - the effect of using such ice is stunning.

The second stage - a cup of natural coffee or freshly brewed green tea (very desirable without sugar) - it can help the body to recover, finally wake up and at the same time get rid of excess fluid and toxic substances accumulated overnight (ground coffee and green tea without sugar have a mild diuretic effect ). The effect will increase if you add a lemon slice to the drink.

Now we proceed to the basic procedures for reconstructing the face with the help of cosmetic products. Scrubs and peeling tools put aside: we do not need them, because they can only worsen the situation. We rub the skin on the face with soothing lotion. You can prepare a mask from the coffee grounds, which remained with you after making ground coffee, literally for 10-15 minutes. The thick is applied directly to the skin, some add vegetable oil or honey to the mixture, but this is not necessary.

After the mask, rinse your face with clean water, pat the towel and apply the cream. Of course, it will be better if it is a special anti-stress cream, or a morning cream for freshness of the face. When applying the cream, massage lightly, tapping your fingers on swollen surfaces. This will speed up blood circulation in the tissues. Pay special attention to the areas above the cheekbones and near the eyes.

That's it, you went through one of the options for emergency therapy. To strengthen the effect, it's a good idea to supplement the procedures with morning physical exercises: it will start metabolism, speed up blood flow and help the body cope with swelling.

Remedies for swelling under the eyes

As you know, it is good to draw moisture from the tissues of ordinary salt - sea or ordinary cookery. Salt remedies for edema under the eyes are perfectly toned, remove excess water and refresh the skin. Try to get rid of puffiness with the help of salt:

• with dry skin: make a hot solution from Art. Spoons of salt and 200 ml of water, we moisten it with a napkin and put it on the face until the tissue has cooled down completely. After the procedure, always use nourishing milk or cream;
• with oily skin - a fresh cabbage leaf rolled through a meat grinder is mixed with st. A spoonful of shallow salt. Mix the mixture on a clean face, lightly massage for a few minutes, then rinse with warm water. The procedure is well completed, wiping your face with an ice cube.

If you do not know what type of skin dominates, you can use a universal salt remedy: stir 1 teaspoon of sour cream, 1 teaspoon of honey, 15 drops of freshly squeezed lime juice and half a teaspoon of ground salt. We put a mass on the face for about 20 minutes, after which we wash.

If you are in no hurry, you can take a salt bath. This bath not only eliminates edema, but also helps to get rid of cellulite, and also stabilizes the function of the thyroid gland. In order to prepare a bath, dilute in it about 1 kg of normal salt and lie down about 20 minutes. After taking a bath without fail, rinse the body under the shower and apply a nutritious lotion.

Troxevasin from swelling under the eyes

Troxevasin is a venotonic and anti-edema drug used in venous pathologies, in particular, with varicose veins. Sometimes it is prescribed for injuries of soft tissues or sprain.

What prompted our women to think that troxevasin can be used from edema under the eyes? The active ingredient of the drug is troxerutin, which is related to the vitamins of group P. This substance enhances blood circulation in the capillary network, eliminates signs of inflammation and strengthens blood vessels. In case of traumatic tissue damage, the drug reduces puffiness and resolves hematomas.

When exposed to the skin, Troxevasin is rapidly absorbed into the skin layers, toning the smooth muscles of the capillary network and strengthening the capillary walls. This helps to stop the release of moisture from the vessels into the tissues, in other words, the swelling simply stops forming.

Troxevasin 2% is used only on clean skin without visible damage, cuts, scratches and irritations. Do not allow the drug to get on the mucous membranes.

Gel is distributed a thin layer on the surface of the skin, you can gently (very carefully) rub. The drug in 30 minutes can be found in the middle layer of skin, and after 2 hours - in the subcutaneous fat.

Mask from swelling under the eyes

Masks from edemas under the eyes will help restore attractiveness, because the main purpose of these masks is the removal of excess fluid from the tissues, and, the sooner, the better.

Masks eliminate the "bags" under the eyes, the general swelling of the facial area, return the person the old features. Antioleic masks cooked in a domestic environment are relatively easy to manufacture: most often they consist of vegetable and vegetable components that are always present in our kitchen.

1. Mask from grated fresh cucumber - removes puffiness and blue under the eyes. Of course, you can simply attach the cucumber circles to the eyes, but experience shows that it is more effective to rub the fresh cucumber on the grater and spread the mass on the face for 20 minutes. Then rinse with cool water. The effect of the mask can be strengthened by adding a few drops of lemon juice to the grated cucumber.
2. Buckwheat mask is a good remedy for swelling. To make a mask, buckwheat must be ground in a coffee grinder to a powdery state.

Edema should disappear quickly enough.
3. Coffee mask. Such a mask can be applied simply in the form of a coffee grounds left after making ground coffee. But you can use a more complex and, correspondingly, more efficient composition. We take 1 tbsp. Spoon ground coffee, 1 tbsp. L. Cocoa powder, 2 tbsp. L. Yoghurt without additives, 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Components are mixed and put on face in the form of a mask. If the skin on the face is oily or normal, then this mask will help you unconditionally. For dry skin, yogurt should be replaced with olive or other oil, and lemon - honey.

Diuretic with swelling under the eyes

Edema is a very common problem. Often people are so tired of fighting with swelling that they are looking for the fastest and most effective method. And many of them stop using diuretics. A diuretic with edemas under the eyes really eliminates puffiness, but simultaneously lowers the pressure, removes the necessary minerals from the body, relieving the tissues not only of excess fluid, but also of the moisture that is necessary for the normal functioning of the body.

Of course, if the puffiness on your face is a random phenomenon caused by any one-time cause (lack of sleep, yesterday's corporate, a large amount of liquids drunk at night), then you can drink once a diuretic. Constant and uncontrolled use of diuretics can have adverse consequences for the body.

The use of loop diuretics can result in negative symptoms: it worsens hearing, feeling weak and dizzy. Often, the use of loop diuretics is effective only at the beginning of treatment: in the future, when taking drugs, the diuretic effect can be replaced by fluid retention.

The use of loop diuretics (torasemide, furosemide, bumetanide, ethacrynic acid) is usually prescribed for complex treatment of hypertension, cardiac insufficiency and other serious pathologies.

Of the most popular means for the removal of edema, it is now possible to call Trifas (Berlin-Chemie). This drug is based on the action of torasemide, but it has fewer side effects.

Trifas successfully fights with puffiness of any origin. In this case, the result can be observed even with small doses of the drug: 5 mg per day. Take the drug in the morning, at breakfast, with a small amount of water. With pronounced swelling it is not recommended to increase dosage independently: in such cases it is better to consult a doctor and look for the true cause of puffiness.

Massage from swelling under the eyes

From the swelling under the eyes, massage is used successfully. Its goal is to improve and accelerate the movement of blood and lymph in the tissues near the eyes. With increased circulation, the drainage properties of the skin increase and the swelling dissolves.

Before you start the massage, you need to consider the following points:

• massage is not carried out on dry skin, it is necessary to use oil (olive, linseed, pumpkin, grape and any other unrefined oil), cream or milk. The main thing is that the skin should not be dry, the fingers should slide freely over the surface;
• Massage is performed once a day, in the mornings;
• Do not massage, if there are inflammatory elements on the skin of the face, or during a cold, at a temperature and feeling unwell;
• During massage it is impossible to press, strongly push and carry out any movements causing pain and discomfort. Massage should be done gently, gently, given the special tenderness and vulnerability of the skin near the eyes;
• You can perform tapping and stroking with your fingertips;
• After every 30 seconds of massage, close your eyes and relax for half a minute.

Self-massage begins with the application of cream or oil on the skin. Cream should be large enough not to damage the delicate skin and not to provoke wrinkles.

We stroke the face from the outer edges to the bridge of the nose (in the direction of the lymphatic vessels). Mass carefully, not putting much effort.

Two or three fingers of the left and right hand, press simultaneously on the point, located in front of the auricles, for a few seconds. We fall along the contour of the cheekbones to the wings of the nose. We do this three times.

Gently massage the area between the eyes and eyebrows, you can use a light tapping with your fingertips.

We mass the tips of the middle fingers with the area from the outer corner of the eye to the inner corners, along the upper and then the lower line of the eyes. Do not put pressure on your eyes. Repeat slowly at least three times.

To notice the positive effect of the massage, it should be done daily. The result is especially visible in women over 40, on young skin the effect is not so noticeable.

Massage can be done during the morning shower or washing: with daily procedures of a persistent anti-edematous effect can be achieved after a half to two months.

This herb will strengthen the vessels and effectively remove excess fluid from the body (even better than many diuretic drugs). The name "kupyr" may seem strange and completely unfamiliar to you. But believe me, you know him well, you just need to find his picture in the directory. To eliminate puffiness, you can use the leaves and roots of the plant.

A spoonful of oats, 1 teaspoon of flax seeds, 1 teaspoon of chicory root, grind and pour into a thermos 0,5 l. We insist about six hours. After filtration, take three times a day for a third of a glass for half an hour before a meal.

Potatoes from swelling under the eyes

Potatoes from swelling under the eyes are used very often, both raw and boiled.

The mask of cooked potatoes is prepared as follows: potatoes boil in a "uniform", grind with a grater, blender or flew, add a little warmed milk. We distribute the mask (in a warm form) on the face for 20-30 minutes.

Mask of raw potatoes: potatoes are cleaned, rubbed on a small grater, add a tablespoon of flour (you can rye or buckwheat) and as much warmed milk. We distribute the mask on the face and rest for 20 minutes.

The effect of masks can be enhanced by adding to the potato mass finely chopped parsley.

Tea from edema under the eyes

We have already said that a cup of green tea without sugar can cope with swelling as well as any diuretic. For this reason, it is very important to drink freshly brewed green leaf tea in the morning, to which you can add lemon or milk, which will only strengthen the diuretic effect. If there is no tea in the house, you can drink a cup of natural ground coffee or freshly squeezed juice (not packaged, which can only exacerbate the situation).

If there is no tea or coffee, you can limit yourself to a glass of cold water with lemon juice: a simple drink that eliminates edema. But do not forget that adding sugar or salt to drinks will lead to fluid retention in the body.

Remove tea from the eyes can help tea from chamomile (100 g of dry color to 0.5 liters of boiling water, pour into a thermos, drink tea, or mixed with green tea).

From phyto-tea, tea should be preferred from the leaves of cranberries, strawberries. You can buy at the pharmacy the so-called "kidney tea" - a special collection of herbs, which has a diuretic effect.

Diet from edema under the eyes

Many people say that it is necessary to adhere to a certain diet with swelling. But what exactly must be remembered when observing such a diet? We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the ten basic principles of nutrition with swelling under the eyes.

• Observe the water balance. Do not forget to drink enough water. Edema can occur not only from excess water, but also from its lack. When there is little liquid in the body, it begins to store it for future use: hence the appearance of edema. If you do not have contraindications to drinking fluids (kidney failure, thyroid disease, ascites), you should drink about 2 liters of clean water a day (about 8 to 10 glasses). True, there is a small remark: in the evening, the amount of water drunk should be minimized. At night, it is better not to drink at all.
• Limit or exclude the use of salt, especially in the second half of the day. Remember that 1 gram of salt delays half the glass of water in the body. It is not only the salt that we pour directly from the salt cellar, but also the hidden salt eaten by us with sausage products, smoked products, snacks and chips, canned food and pickles.
• The fact that the salt delays the fluid is known to everyone. However, many of us forget that carbohydrates also have properties that strongly retain water. In particular, this refers to simple carbohydrates: sweets, sugar, buns. For example, 100 g of sugar can keep about half a liter of liquid in the body. Therefore, avoid the use of sugar, and the ideal dinner should generally be protein (meat, cottage cheese, eggs).
• In addition to sugar and salt, to keep the liquid in the body is capable of alcohol. Keep it to a minimum, especially towards evening.
• Have dinner no later than 3 hours before bedtime.
• Drink water without gas, and from sweet soda water is generally better to give up.
• Do not drink at night.
• Eat more vegetables and fruits, as well as foods containing B group vitamins (nuts, seeds, greens, legumes, cereals, sour-milk products).
• Do not forget about products that have natural diuretic properties. This watermelon, melon, viburnum, berries, garlic and onions, as well as vegetable freshly squeezed juices, especially beetroot and carrot fresh.
• Do not overeat: overeating leads to stagnant phenomena in the body, disrupts the function of the digestive system, worsens metabolism.

In addition to diet, remember that you need to establish a full sleep, enough time to give rest, dosed sports loads, and forget about smoking.

There is also a complex of special exercises from puffiness, with which we will introduce you.

1. Exercises from edema under the eyes can be done as immediately after a sleepless night, when the eyes look tired and "swollen", and for the prevention of swelling. Consider the following exercises.
2. Sit down on a stool with an even back. Widely open our eyes, look straight and slowly count to eight, then close our eyes and relax.
3. Again we look straight as usual, not widely. We make eight movements with our eyes in a circle. Without moving your head, we look alternately left, right, up, down, then diagonally upward to the right, down to the left, up to the left, down to the right. So we repeat several times.
4. We screw up our eyes, counting to six.
5. We sit down next to the mirror, we look at our reflection as if "underfoot". Slowly close our eyes, trying to raise a little lower eyelids. Repeat 2 times.
6. With the tips of your fingers, we squeeze the bags under the eyes a little. Close our eyes, we count to five.
7. We pinch our brows and pull them up a bit, while trying to close our eyes and counting to eight. We implement two approaches.
8. We put our hands to the cheekbones and, counting to ten, gradually increase the pressure on the skin. After that, stop the pressure and remove your hands from the face.
9. We put the palms to the temples and do the same thing as in exercise number 7.

Mesotherapy for edema under the eyes

Currently, many beauty salons and clinics can offer a variety of methods for healing and regenerating facial skin. One such method is mesotherapy - a procedure to eliminate edema under the eyes, blue circles, wrinkles and flabbiness of the skin.

Mesotherapy is the introduction by subcutaneous injection of certain drugs in small dosages. Introduction is carried out in the middle layer of the epidermis. The drug is determined by the doctor, taking into account the characteristics of the patient's skin. The result of mesotherapy is obtained by activating the problem areas with special preparations with a high content of vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

The doctor injects the drug with a thinnest needle at certain points on the surface of the skin. Typically, one session lasts up to half an hour. The course of mesotherapy can be 3-8 procedures.

What drugs are used for injection? Usually it is a mixture, or, as they are called, cocktails, consisting of several components. Among the constituent mixtures can be vitamin complexes (more often vitamins B), hyaluronic or glycolic acids, as well as substances that promote vasodilation.

Unfortunately, the method of mesotherapy has a number of contraindications. Procedures do not conduct:

• pregnant and lactating women;
• in the presence of infectious pathologies;
• in the presence of malignant tumors, or during their treatment;
• with blood pathologies and diabetes mellitus;
• with a tendency to allergies.

After a mesotherapy session, the skin near the eyes can turn red, sometimes bruises and swelling appear, which should disappear for two days. Full recovery of the skin occurs after 7-14 days.

There is also non-injection mesotherapy that does not involve the use of injections. The essence of this method - in electroporation - is the conduct of electrical impulses, thanks to which the necessary preparations enter the tissues. This is a relatively new method in cosmetology.

After carrying out mesotherapy, the doctor will acquaint you with some recommendations for skin care. Some points of such recommendations are: a ban on visiting the solarium, saunas and baths; prohibition of large temperature changes for the skin; ban on alcohol and smoking.

Darsonval from swelling under the eyes

Darsonval is a special medical device that is actively used by dermatologists, neuropathologists, surgeons and cosmetologists. In cosmetology it is used from edema under the eyes, from wrinkles and a decrease in skin tone, from acne and cellulite, and to improve metabolic processes in the skin.

The duration of one session is from five to 15 minutes. The course consists of 10 to 20 sessions. The power of the impact is determined by the sensations: the patient should feel a tingling sensation, but not a feeling of pain.

To influence the eyelid area, a cylindrical or conical electrode is used, which slowly moves along the eyelid. The eyes are closed at the same time. Near the eye, the procedure is carried out every other day: on the first day the session lasts 1 minute, then the duration is increased to five minutes. The course of exposure to the skin near the eyes - about 15 sessions.

In the presence of open damage to the skin (scratches, wounds or sores), the effect of darsonval is carried out without direct contact with the skin, observing a distance of about 5 mm.

The procedure can be contraindicated:

• with violations of the blood coagulation system;
