There is a rising demand for non-surgical option to treat eye bags in Singapore because people are becoming increasingly demanding for effective results with minimal downtime.
Over the past few years, improvement in medical technology has led to the development of a technique for non-surgical eye bag removal.
Causes of eye bags
Some common causes of eye bags include:
- Thinning of the skin around the eyes
- Loss of fatty tissue in the face
- Hereditary factors
- Loss of skin laxity and collagen
Types of non-surgical eye bag removal treatment
Here at Radium Medical Aesthetics, we offer a range of non-surgical eye bag removal treatment like:
AGNES EYE BAG REMOVAL TREATMENT AGNES is a radiofrequency micro-insulated needle system that originated from South Korea. It helps to tighten sagging skin around your under eye area to eliminate wrinkles and reduce the appearance of your eye bags.
PICO LASER TREATMENT Pico laser treatment delivers ultrashort laser pulses in picoseconds to reduce the appearance of your under eye wrinkles and eye bags.
UNDER EYE DERMAL FILLER Soft hyaluronic acid fillers are injected into your under eye area to rejuvenate and plump up deficient areas of the under eye and reduce appearance of eye bags.
ULTHERAPY TREATMENT Ultherapy uses medical-grade high intensity focused ultrasound to tighten your skin and stimulate collagen production in your face which helps to remove eye bags.
HIFU TREATMENT Just like Ultherapy, HIFU uses thermal energy to improve skin laxity, remove fat cells, and get rid of your eye bags.
How does non-surgical eye bag removal work?
In the past, undergoing eye bag removal would mean going under the knife. With all surgeries, there are associated risks and downtime, and many would rather opt for a non-invasive option, if available.
These days, eye bag removal can be performed conveniently with minimal downtime.
In this 30-minute procedure, the excess fats in your eye bags are melted away with micro-insulated needles delivering radiofrequency waves. The melted fats then drain out naturally via your circulatory system.

Can non-surgical eye bag removal replace an eye bag removal surgery?

What is the difference between eye bag and aegyo sal?
Contrary to popular belief, aegyo sal is not eye bag.
Aegyo sal is a small piece of fatty tissue that sits right under the lower eyelids. We often see aegyo sal in younger children and they seem to disappear when they reach adulthood. Many people like the appearance of aegyo sal because it gives them a youthful appearance.
On the other hand, eye bags are formed because the muscles that support the eyelids weaken and the fatty tissues under the eyes are displaced and move into the lower eyelids. The formation of eye bags often make people look tired and unattractive.
