Undereye Wrinkle Reducers

Undereye wrinkles are often one of the first and most persistent signs of skin aging. However, a nourishing and hydrating skincare routine and lifestyle changes can help minimize fine lines under the eyes.

While everyone wants the best eye cream for wrinkles (and we’ll get to that!), a holistic approach is required over eye treatment alone. Keep reading as we unlock the secrets to reducing and preventing under eye wrinkles. This article will discuss:

• Causes of eye wrinkles
• Best eye wrinkle cream and serum ingredients
• How to get rid of undereye wrinkles with nutrition, lifestyle, and home remedies
• How to eliminate wrinkles under the eyes in the first place – prevention tips
• Best products for eye wrinkles from NassifMD® facial plastic surgeon skincare

Causes of Undereye Wrinkles

The delicate skin under and around the eyes is the thinnest skin on the face, containing less collagen and more prone to aging and sun damage. Often, fine lines and wrinkles show up here first. Over time, deeper wrinkles develop from smiling and repeated facial movements.

You might notice:

• Wrinkles under eyes
• Lines under eyes
• Wrinkles around eyes
• Eyelid wrinkles
• Undereye creases

In addition to normal aging and use of facial muscles, sun damage is another major cause of undereye lines. Poor nutrition, lifestyle habits (like smoking), and lack of sleep also contribute.

Targeted Care Makes a Difference

Because the eye area is so susceptible to aging and environmental damage, extra skincare is required for undereye lines treatment and prevention. Adding a targeted eye wrinkle cream or serum to your daily routine can enhance the appearance and slow skin aging signs.

Topical Creams and Serums

NassifMD® Skincare uses synergistic ingredients in all eye products to fill, nourish, and protect the delicate eye skin. Many active ingredients support the skin around the eyes, including retinol and hyaluronic acid. Including these critical ingredients in your skincare routine are powerful forces against eye wrinkles.

Retinol for Wrinkle Reduction

Retinol is an active form of vitamin A. As a topical treatment, it’s an FDA-approved wrinkle reducer, which decreases the visible signs of aging and improves the skin’s natural appearance. Retinol prevents wrinkles and improves their appearance by supporting collagen production, cellular turnover, and barrier function.

Find retinol in these popular NassifMD® Skincare products:

• NassifMD® Hydro-Screen Hydrating Serum
• NassifMD® Night Therapy Serum
• NassifMD® Even, Correct & Renew Retexturizing Pads (avoid upper and lower eyelids)
• NassifMD® Hydro-Gel Serum

Hyaluronic Acid for Hydration

Dry, dehydrated skin makes fine lines and wrinkles deeper and more visible. Hyaluronic acid, naturally found throughout the body and concentrated in the skin, helps hydrate and plump the skin to smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

Hyaluronic acid is considered a water-binding molecule and pulls moisture into the skin to hydrate, protect the skin barrier, and stimulate collagen production. When considering how to remove wrinkles under the eyes, use hyaluronic acid throughout your skincare routine.

You’ll find hyaluronic acid throughout the NassifMD® Skincare collection, including in these products:

• NassifMD® Hydro-Screen Hydrating Serum
• NassifMD® Soft Focus Hydrating Day Cream
• NassifMD® Protect & Hydrate Daily Mineral Sunscreen
• NassifMD® Quickfix Instant Wrinkle Smoother
• NassifMD® 3HA Hydrating Facial Mist

Natural Remedies

Natural remedies include simple DIY strategies for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. There are many approaches, and while you don’t have to do them all, you may find one or two beneficial to add to your routine. Natural remedies for eye wrinkles include:

• Facial yoga and stretching
• Gau sha and jade rolling
• Facial massage
• Homemade face masks (Think: coffee grounds, yogurt, banana, coconut oil)
• Applying cucumbers or cold spoons to the eyes
• Under eye patches

Lifestyle Adjustments & Eye Wrinkle Prevention Tips

Daily lifestyle habits affect how your skin looks and ages. Consider your lifestyle as a foundational under eye wrinkle treatment. Here are some helpful habits to cultivate:

1. Get enough high-quality sleep each night
2. Quit using tobacco products
3. Reduce or eliminate alcohol
4. Reduce exposure to environmental toxins and pollution
5. Manage stress
6. Stay hydrated by drinking water and adding electrolytes
7. Ensure a nutritious diet of primarily whole food
8. Reduce squinting and frowning
9. Limit sun exposure and wear sunscreen

Advanced Eye Wrinkle Treatments

In addition to a quality skincare routine from NassifMD® Skincare and choosing the best eye wrinkle cream, medical spa treatments may offer wrinkle-reducing benefits.

How to get rid of wrinkles around the eyes with professional treatments:

• High-potency prescription retinol/retinoids
• Medical skin resurfacing (laser treatments)
• Facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and other aesthetician services
• Botox and dermal fillers
• Plastic surgery

Dietary Support for Eye Wrinkles and Creases

A nutritious, balanced diet is crucial for a healthy body and skin. Specific nutrients, antioxidants, fats, and proteins help build the skin’s structure and protect the skin from damage, dehydration, and wrinkles. These nutrients and their food sources include:

• Vitamin A – fish oils, full-fat dairy products, fish, eggs
• Vitamin C – citrus fruits, strawberries, kiwi, broccoli, spinach, red peppers
• Vitamin E – whole grains, nuts, seeds
• Selenium – Brazil nuts, fish, seafood, poultry, eggs
• Zinc – red meat, shellfish, nuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, legumes
• Copper – liver, seafood, nuts, seeds, chocolate
• Essential fats – nuts, seeds, fish, seafood
• Polyphenols and antioxidants – colorful plant foods (Eat the rainbow!)
• Protein – meat, fish, eggs, bone broth, legumes, nuts, seeds

A decline in collagen associated with aging and sun damage makes the skin thinner and increases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A collagen-rich diet and supplementing with NassifMD® Collagen Gummies are supportive. Collagen peptides improve wrinkles, skin elasticity, and skin hydration.

How to Choose the Right Eye Wrinkle Supplements

We’ve mentioned how internal collagen supplements and a colorful, plant-rich, nutritious diet support skin health and act as an undereye lines treatment. Now, let’s talk about supplementing your skincare routine with specific eye health products for impactful results.

NassifMD® Quickfix Instant Wrinkle Smoother is another pick-me-up formula that offers instant results. It’s in the category of instant wrinkle erasers and temporarily fills in the wrinkles around the eyes. Use this formula to fill and blur fine lines while tightening and refreshing.
