Are sunken eyes reversible?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I delivered my baby three years back. After a year, I started suffering from sunken eyes due to lack of sleep, high stress and improper nutrition. For the last six months, I am taking good care of myself and my eyes have slightly improved. I want to know if sunken eyes are reversible. If yes, then how long will it take? I am 31 years old. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. You have provided a clear description of your concern. Sunken eyes can indeed be reversible, especially since you have been taking good care of yourself. To objectively assess the improvement, consider asking someone who hasn't seen you for a while to compare your old picture with your current appearance and rate the difference on a scale. If you desire further improvement, cosmetic procedures like peeling can be an option to reduce the tan and enhance skin texture. Advances in cosmetic laser treatments can also be beneficial to some extent. As a last resort, tissue fillers can be considered if other approaches do not yield the desired results. I recommend consulting with a qualified professional to discuss the best approach for your specific situation and goals.
