See the thread about Easy Eye Solutions Eye Tuck and Dark Circle Treatment. It is a topical and it has worked well for many. If you look through the threads you'll also see before and after pics!

Yes, Tasha, do look at that thread.
I have just gotten some and it really works. Nothing in the past has done anything for me. I think mine are genetic because I've always had them.
It's not just a quick fix. The product has cummulative benefits.

Hi tasha,

Few years ago I had really serious eye bags due to stress from work and lack of sleep. I got a series of Ultrasound Treatments from my beauty salon to alleviate the problem. I was doing those eye treatments twice a week and after 2 months, around 70-80% of my eye bags had been eliminated. For me, Ultrasound is definitely an effective way to treat serious eye bags.

Recently, after reading the rave reviews of some EDS members, I start to use Easy Eye Solutions Eye Tuck and Dark Circle Treatment. Within a week, I notice that my eye bags are almost ALL gone. There is also some improvement for dark circles. So it is definitely worth to give it a shot!

Will have to put my 2 cents in on Easy-Eye as well...I know many are skeptical about eye creams and their promises of smoother, less puffy skin. But this seems to be a beacon of light in the fog for many!! ha ha....it has worked and it has worked well!! For me, it has totally smoothed out my trough, lines, crosshatching and those little pouches...really, makes my face look 10 years younger...unbelievable and worth every penny!!! I am certainly glad I tried it and wont have to spend another penny on another useless eye product.....

I had an upper and lower bleph last October and am soooo glad I did, I am thrilled. No matter how bad the night before, I wake up looking great. It was worth it.

Hi Moonstone, does the 'improvment' on your eye bags from Eye Tuck disappear after you wash off the product? And another question, how permanent were the results you had from ultrasound? Thanks!

Hi fat_swan, Apart from creating an instant tuck, the results of Eye Tuck do seem to be cumulative. After using the products for almost a week (day and night), I'm pleasantly surprised that the eye bags are less noticeable even after I remove the serum.

The result I had from Ultrasound treatment is pretty long-lasting as long as I have enough sleep and rest. I still go for the maintenance treatments once or twice a month at my beauty salon.

Facial exercises are also beneficial to combat the eye bags. In addition to Ageless program I'm currently doing, the following exercise is also helpful for me to firm under-eye areas.

As far as the cream and tuck serum go...the results are instant. The first night I tried the tuck serum, WHAMMO! I had smoothness and my under eye area looked awesome!! My trough was reduced in depth at least 85% or more, crosshatching gone, lines gone, bags smoothed out (although my bags were not too bad to begin with) darkness was reduced I think due to the depth of my troughs being reduced as I think my darkness is due to shadowing from the trough "pit".....

I know its easy to be skeptical about this stuff but with so many people getting great results its hard to ignore. We are all a bit gun shy about beauty products, thankfully and unbelievably this is one that actually delivers. www.easyeyesolutions.com

Wanted to note to that Nanci at www.ncnproskincare.com was running a special on the tuck serum, that is where I bought mine. She doesn't sell the Illumination cream though and I ordered that directly from Zach at Easy-Eye Solutions

Oh crud!!! She does sell the Illuminating cream as well!!! Not sure how I missed that. So you can get both from her at a savings and you will get it much quicker than through Zach...so I would order through Nanci at Proskin....

20 ULTRASOUND treatments for 2 months gave me a significant reduction of my terrible eye bags. But I still do the maintenance program (once or twice monthly) in order to keep the results especially when I'm sleep deprived or under lots of stress.

The cost for ultrasound at my local beauty salon is around $20 per treatment. I really don't know the difference between laser vs ultrasound, as i never have any laser treatment before.

I haven't gotten my Illuminating cream yet and have been getting great results with taking a spot of my ReVive Eye Renewal cream and mixing it with some of the tuck serum and applying....I let that set, then I apply a bit more tuck serum as needed until I get the desired results. It doesn't take much of the tuck serum really and I can see this bottle lasting a long time... I ordered the Illumination cream just as a companion to the tuck to try it out, but seriously I probably could have gone without.

Thank you for responding so fast..much appreciated do have question though, does the ultrasound also TIGHTEN and & LIFT the skin as well as reduced severe eyebags? I sure hope so...fingers crossed Smile

$20 isnt bad where as a I was paying $80 per treatment for cosmetic acupunture

I ordered the Easy Eye Tuck from Nanci at NCNProskincare and just received it today! yay! I can't wait to try it. I wasn't sure about ordering the Illuminating cream, but Nanci gave me a FREE sample!! And I didn't even ask for it. Really, that woman is an angel. Yeah, order from NCNPro 'cause there's a discount too.

puffy eyes usually cause by 2 kind of reasons:

1. you donot have enough sleep for long time.
2. blood circulation problem

if 1st , Darphin Dark Circle & De Puffing Eye cream may helps

My upper and lower bleph was $5,000 U.S. dollars and took total 3 weeks full recovery. After 7 days stitches are removed and makeup can be worn. But I heal slow and I bruise and swell, so it could be shorter after the 7 days are up. Also I had laser skin resurfacing, which delayed the overall healing process.
I had surgery on October 16th and I flew to Vegas on Nov. 8 to meet with my son's future in-laws to discuss wedding arrangements and they did not have a clue.
My hubby is going to do it soon and he will probably be fully recovered in one-two weeks as he heals fast!

Ann-

You are awesome! I think I will just get the lower bleph done only because my eyelids arent bad (I'm only 24 and have baby face..LOL)
So im guessing the lower bleph is $2500 right?

And the laser whats the purpose again please? I've read its help smooth lines & wrinkles and i dont have neither BUT I do WANT to firm, tighten and lift my eyes..so im debating if i should just get the ultrasound treatments at my salon after few wks (upon doctor orders) after surgery .
Please let me know

I did the upper at the same time as I had some excess skin, not much, but really it's best if you are ever going to consider doing it at a later date. They look so much more alert and awake, even when I am not.
The laser was to fix allover sun damage and was 1,000 at the time of the blephs. Normally it was 2,000. They also can do just the eye area underneath. I had eye, face and neck for that, and if I was already going to have healing time, why not do it.
It was harsh and icky, with the peeling, scabbing, oozing and vaseline coatings. I don't know any other way to describe it. I couldn't/wouldn't even touch my own face, dear hubby carefully dabbed and cleaned and applied for me.
Would I do the laser again, not sure I saw enough results to justify all that.
Now the blephs, absolutely! My son is having an October Carribean wedding instead of local (which is why I did my eyes now for pics to begin with ). Wish I had done my breast lift instead as swimsuit countdown approaches!
