I have allergies and they get worse in high-wind times -- when I was out of the country this summer, I had almost no problems with it, so I think having an allergy screening makes sense. For those of you over 39, everything is working against you, at that age, the tissue under your eyes becomes thinnner through aging process, making visible or more visible bags that may have already beeng there. Mesotherapy, injection of fat dissolvers into the eye area, works well for many people -- please google this, and go to a licensed, experienced dermatologist if you want to pursue this. It has made my eye bags less noticeable, though not banished them forever -- but it cost a fraction of what the under eye plastic surgeries mentioned above cost. I hope this gives new hope or new perspective for some of you here! Best, Tracey Everyone:

Halfway down my cheeks I have blue bags. I have tried everything but nothing helps. Even makeup and concealers don't cover it. I don't drink, get plenty of sleep and eat a low salt diet. I do however have an underactive thoroid problem and take medicine for it. I am 57 but have this problem for years. Is there a solution or am I wasting my money. It causes me so much embarassment. I know there are worse things in life and don't want to appear petty but I really hate the blue look. Please can you give some help. Halfway down my cheeks I have blue bags.

I've read that elevating your heard helps, I've purchased creams, rollers, expensive and quite simply useless products. I've cut alot of salty foods out of my diet hoping that would help, but still see no results. I've used cold cucumbers, spoons, tea bags... Some days i'll just look "normal" and not get the, "late night last night?" remarks. But I'm honestly at a loss for things to do. I'm 21 years old and can't even stay at my boyfriends house because I'm embarassed for him to wake up next to a "Dreckle&Hyde" situation (spellings off I know). I know it's not allergies, so I'm just at a complete loss. Any information would help so much! I know I should just accept myself but NYC is filled with beautiful people who simply don't have this problem and it makes me even more self concious than I already am.

All that plastic surgery and facelifts are only temporary. And it makes you look funny after so many are done. GOD IS in control of it all, he has the 1st and the last say so, AMEN.
