Eye bags have the unfortunate effect of making one look tired and much older than they are. Discovering the cause of eye bags will determine the best way to remove them successfully. If illness or prescription medication is not the cause and they are not due to lack of sleep, the problem could be fluid retention. In this case the eye bag can be helped, if not removed altogether, by cutting down on salt in the diet, and sleeping in a slightly elevated position to help the eye area fluid drain properly at night.
Quite often, if the eye bag is severe and has been a long-term problem, a more permanent method to remove it may be necessary. The most obvious solution is to undergo Blepharoplasty, the cosmetic eye surgery procedure. This usually involves the removal of excess fat from the eye area, and a tightening of the skin. While this is a successful way to remove the eye bag, it is expensive and does involve a certain amount of recovery time. Those considering eye bag removal may also want to look at some of the newer procedures such as laser eye lifts and radio-frequency tightening.
If surgery is not a viable option, there are some very good brands of eye cream on the market which, whilst not being able to remove the eye bag completely, can certainly help reduce puffiness in the area. These creams are often a combination of naturally tightening ingredients, anti-oxidants and diuretics that should be applied sparingly to the eye bags daily. At the very least, these types of creams may help prevent further bagging and swelling and eliminate the need for more drastic removal methods.

a blepharoplasty was my only solution. I tried everything else and all failed even eye serums. The surgery didn't last long, recovery time was quick and the outcome is amazing.
