Drooping eyelid - causes

There are many causes of drooping eyelids, known as ptosis. The basic information we should know is that the skin of the eyelids is very thin. This is important because thin skin loses firmness faster. And this should make us think.

Beneath the skin, there is a layer of fat, which acts as a natural filler. When we lose this filler, the skin starts to sag, and it is one of the most common causes of drooping eyelids.

Another cause of drooping eyelids is the weakening of the muscles responsible for eyelid movement. The levator muscle, which is responsible for lifting the eyelid, is in continuous work for most of the day. Like any muscle, it can weaken or become damaged. Sometimes this may be due to more serious conditions, but it can also result from deficiencies in our diet or stress.

Here we come to a seemingly obvious cause - stress and lifestyle. These factors have an impact on our entire body, and there is no doubt that they can also affect sagging eyelids.

An extremely important cause of ptosis is the aging of tissues. With age, the skin loses moisture and firmness. Cells lose moisture with the reduction of hyaluronic acid. The loss of firmness of elastin and collagen fibers causes gradual stretching of the skin. With such thin skin as the eyelid, aging processes are particularly visible, so it is worth paying special attention to it.

In addition to all these possibilities, add genetic predispositions, and we already have a quite substantial list of possible causes of ptosis.

It is also worth noting that it is impossible to describe here all the causes because there are also many conditions that affect the appearance and functioning of this part of the body.

Of course, there is such a possibility. The sooner we act, the better. At the Beauty Embassy in Warsaw, there are various anti-aging treatments available that can help with this. Read more about eye area treatments that will significantly delay the onset of drooping eyelids.
