Bags under eyes. It's purely water retention combined with "bad Kidneys"...

Submitted by Matt Young

Sorry folks, but you are wrong. I had a late night out on the town and drank too much on Tuesday, come Wednesday morning, I had bags under my eyes the size of JUMPIG CASTLES, it ain't hereditory, my folks don't suffer the same problem, it's purely water retention combined with "bad Kidneys"...answer, loads of water and GOOD SLEEP !

I am just 39 and have noticed over the last decade that the more I drink "alcohol", the worse my bags get, and they take a month to go down. By the way, your tip about the T-Bags treatment is also wrong, T-Bags leave "horrible" dark stains (from tannin) in the pause of your skin, so you bet horrible dark barks "to boot"

One disagreement Comments By: Angela Although, dark circles can be caused by drinking too much, it can also be inherited. I am only 23 and I have had dark circles in every single school photo ever since elementary school. Every female on my mom's side has the same problem.   Don't stress your eyes! Comments By: Rachel Eye swelling is swelling of the dermis brought on usually by stress to the tearducts. NEVER let anything make you cry before going to bed. You will be a mess the next day, especially if you're predisposed to eye bags genetically. Also, being tired can stress the tearducts, so getting enough sleep is important. Too much salt will do it too. Water retention IS another reason the dermis will swell.   dark circles.. Comments By: Mari Cooper Yours were caused by drinking/whatever. Mine are hereditary; I am 37 and have had them since the day I was born, every single day. So do my mother and my grandmother. My eyes are large and deep-set, and the dark circles have always been very, very prominent.   dont forget allergies can contribute to swelling under the eyes and shiners Comments By: yogi all suggestings were helpful.   hereditery Comments By: joanne i also have had them all my life since i was very young its awful and any help is appreciated   Not sure I agree with this,... Comments By: Anna My daughter is two and seems to have constant dark bags under her eyes. Unless someone's been slipping some Kahlua in her milk, she doesn't drink. I think her dark bags are worse when she hasn't had a proper nap,... But I am rethinking her diet after what I've read. Perhaps she has too much salt and it makes her retain water???   I don't think so Comments By: Anon I'm 22 and I'vehad eyebags since theday I was born. The wierd thing is that neither my mom nor my dad have any.   eye bags Comments By: sarah im 25 and i developed bad dark eye bags about 8 months ago my eyes are very puffy underneath i also have prominant blue veins running through them which is not nice and they are starting to ruin my life i have had severe depression over them i dont like going out im thinking of having eye bay surgery done so if anybody out there has had the procedure please could you give your comments on what this surgery is like and if its worth being done.   I have developed bags under my eyes :( Comments By: Raluca Since i gave birth, 4 months ago, i have this ugly bags under my eyes (my left eye looks worse then my rightone). I've tried everything from cucumbers, cold tea spoons, ice cubes, potatos, expensive creams, even preparation h. My doctor said is because im retaining water. I don't know what to do...Im taking water balance pills hoping that the bags will go... The doctor said it will go on itself...They had disapeared for a week but now they came back:( If anyone had any succes pls let us know. Thank you   Bags will not go away no matter what I try Comments By: Anon I have developed bags under my eyes that are getting worse every day. I use to wear contacts and it seemed that since I wear glasses now they are worse. I have tried drinking plenty of water, sleeping on my back at night, all creams, cold compress etc... but it seems as if surgery is my only option. It has gotten to the point where my self esteem is suffering, therefore I am not as social anymore. I am seriously considering surgery.   Thyroids Comments By: Eileen Stevenson No one in my family has eye bags. I only started having them a year ago when I realized my thyroids were overactive. I have tried everything from expensive creams to preparation H and nothing helps. Any suggestions besides that expensive surgery?   Well Folks, here is the true cure for circles and eye bags Comments By: Sweet Lemon Don't pay attention on them. Once u do this they will be gone for ever.   w.e Comments By: hotchick i dont care and i tried tea bags wa u said about them was a toatll fake!
