In short: In most cases, puffiness under the eyes is cosmetic and is caused by fluid retention, tiredness and age. It decreases during the day and responds to care and lifestyle. However, swelling is a reason to see a doctor when it is sudden, in one eye only, painful, or accompanied by redness and itching. For cosmetic puffiness, care with drainage ingredients such as those in Rose Eye Lift helps.
What is puffiness under the eyes
Puffiness under the eyes is swelling in the area of the lower eyelid, most often caused by fluid retention and loosening of the tissues. In most cases it is cosmetic, but it's important to recognise when it's a sign of something else. See also our guide to under-eye bags and complete guide to the eye area.
When puffiness is cosmetic
The following table helps you assess when puffiness under the eyes is ordinary puffiness and when it's a good idea to consult a doctor:
| Sign | Most likely |
|---|---|
| Mild puffiness that decreases during the day | Cosmetic |
| Swelling after salty food or lack of sleep | Cosmetic |
| Sudden, severe swelling | Reason to see a doctor |
| Swelling in one eye only | Reason to see a doctor |
| Swelling with pain, redness or itching | Reason to see a doctor |
When to see a doctor
If the swelling appears suddenly, is severe, affects one eye only, or is accompanied by pain, redness, itching or vision problems, see a doctor. In these cases, the cause may be an allergy, infection or another condition that requires an examination, not cosmetic care.
