“What do you think is the leading facial rejuvenation surgery according to statistics among American plastic surgeons? No, not the fight against wrinkles or even a facelift.
The American Society of Plastic Surgery names bags and swelling on the cheekbones under the eyes as the most common reason for visiting a rejuvenation specialist.
I confirm that this is indeed the case. Many of us are ready to put up with the first wrinkles and small bags under the eyes. But the cheek bags are too noticeable, and creams are powerless against them. Therefore, it is this problem that sooner or later leads to a specialist.”
Andrey Iskornev, plastic surgeon.
Causes
Know! The amount of fat under the skin in the cheekbone area increases over the years, but a number of predisposing factors can accelerate the process of formation of sufas, including:
- sudden weight gain in general;
- genetic predisposition;
- the formation of constant swelling, as a result of which the skin stretches and the subcutaneous space filled with fat increases.
Painting bags can visually increase due to sagging skin , which with age .
When do they occur most often?
Due to a number of circumstances, adds cardiologist Andrei Grachev, such as the flow of fluid to the upper half of the body in a lying position, changes in the biorhythms of hormone production (more often their active synthesis occurs at night or in the early morning hours), edema syndrome most often manifests itself in the early morning hours .
Morning
If we talk about physiological reasons, morning swelling is usually associated with constant lack of sleep, fasting or strict diets (limiting protein and fats). Sometimes swelling in the morning is caused by the wrong selection of skincare products (face cream, toner or cleanser). Also, morning swelling of the face can be caused by crying or stress in the evening or at night.
Possible swelling of the face in the morning due to an incorrectly selected pillow (it is too high, it provokes a narrowing of the blood vessels in the neck). Another physiological factor is an excess of fried, salty foods or liquids taken in the evening, before bed. In women, facial swelling in the morning can be caused by hormonal fluctuations, PMS or pregnancy. Some women report morning swelling during menopause.
Pathological causes of morning edema are mainly kidney damage. Such swelling is usually soft, mobile, appears on the face after sleep, and the skin acquires a waxy or yellowish tint. The most common causes of facial swelling are:
- glomerulonephritis - the acute form of the disease leads to edema, which lasts up to 2-3 weeks, if the process enters the chronic phase, edema is typical for periods of exacerbation of inflammation;
- Kidney amyloidosis - edema is typical of the second stage (proteinuria), when protein loss occurs and kidney function gradually deteriorates;
- membranous nephropathies - occur after taking certain medications, tumor therapy, acute infectious pathologies. Edema occurs in waves, with sharp or barely noticeable symptoms;
- chronic kidney disease (previously called renal failure) - swelling occurs gradually as renal damage progresses;
- kidney damage in severe systemic pathologies - edema is typical for nephropathy due to diabetes or systemic lupus erythematosus.
Evening
Sometimes facial swelling becomes noticeable in the evening, especially after an active day. Often this is one of the manifestations of pathologies of the cardiovascular system. Often, swelling of the face is accompanied by severe swelling in the area of the extremities - hands and feet, legs. These swellings are denser, the skin has a lower temperature than on other parts of the body, and such swelling goes away slowly. Often occur against the background of the following pathologies:
- amyloidosis of the heart and blood vessels;
- cardiomyopathy;
- sclerotic heart disease (cardiosclerosis);
- certain types of arrhythmia;
- constrictive pericarditis;
- some heart defects;
- arterial hypertension;
- cardiac lesions due to rheumatism.
Day
Sometimes facial swelling is most pronounced during the day or its appearance is not clearly related to the time of day. Among the main pathologies that lead to such edema are endocrine disorders - especially a lack of thyroid hormones (hypothyroidism). Facial swelling is especially pronounced with congenital hypothyroidism, in pregnant women or with autoimmune thyroiditis, cytokine-induced thyroiditis.
Rapidly increasing swelling of the face during the day can be a sign of allergies - to food, insect bites, cosmetics, medications and even cold. Sometimes facial swelling occurs during an attack of bronchial asthma due to difficulty breathing and fluid retention in the veins.
Facial swelling is possible in people who smoke and drink alcohol. This is due to the increased work of the lymphatic system to remove toxins from tissues.
Severe swelling of the face during the day is possible with respiratory infections and their complications - sinusitis, tonsillitis, frontal sinusitis. Swelling of the face is possible with a deficiency or excess of vitamins (especially fat-soluble ones).
Prevention
It is impossible to prevent the development of sufs.
This is because these fat deposits inevitably appear with age.
But you can slow down degenerative processes by following these preventive recommendations :
- the diet should be balanced : it should include more foods containing vitamin B;
- for normal functioning of the hormonal system and to prevent the formation of bags from overwork, it is necessary to get enough sleep , allocating 7-8 hours a day for sleep;
- stable physical activity has a tonic and , which can be achieved by walking in the fresh air for only half an hour a day;
- You need to drink 1.5-2 liters of water per day to maintain water-salt balance.
Remember! For sensitive skin predisposed to the development of such cosmetic defects, nourishing and moisturizing face creams should be used.
When choosing them, it is better to consult a cosmetologist.

Reviews about the treatment
“
Bags on my cheekbones appeared for the first time several years ago . No cosmetic products helped. The salon advised me not to spend money on creams and suggested doing a facelift .But we were warned in advance that this is not a 100% guarantee of permanently getting rid of the bags, and additional operations may be required over the years.
I agreed, as a result, the bags were almost completely removed, and although more than two years have passed, my face looks almost the same as after the procedure .”
Elizaveta Shipnevskaya, Kislovodsk.
“When I started having sufs , at first I didn’t attach any importance to it, attributing everything to age.
But over the years, my face began to look like the face of an alcoholic. It was unpleasant and ugly, and I decided to have a check-lift .
The procedure is not very expensive for me, but I am satisfied with the effect.
But the specialist warned even then that over time the bags would reappear, and then they would either have to do liposuction or consider the option of fillers.”
Marina Panyutina, 48 years old.
Method 1. You can remove sufas from your face without surgery
“The method used to remove paint bags on the face primarily depends on the severity of the problem.
If malar edema has just appeared and is not yet very noticeable, do not delay going to the doctor. Right now you can get rid of trouble easily and simply
.
At this stage, non-surgical injection blepharoplasty Dermaheal Eyebag Solution will help remove bags under the eyes.
The procedure was originally developed for bags under the eyes, but it is also great for cheekbones.
The drug is a mixture of biomimetric peptides for various purposes. Some peptides significantly reduce the volume of fat in hernias without destroying fat cells. The latter stimulate collagen and elastin and strengthen the skin, reducing the protrusion of the bag. Still others remove excess fluid and restore the tone of the facial muscles. The fourth improve the quality of the skin, smooth out fine wrinkles.
It is important to note that the drug does not contain any direct lipolytics, which makes its use safe.
To resolve the bags, two procedures are usually prescribed, but many are quite satisfied with the result of the first.”
Maxim Vasiliev, plastic surgeon.
It is very important that the Dermaheal Eyebag Solution procedure, although it is not plastic surgery, is nevertheless performed by a plastic surgeon. Why a surgeon if there is no scalpel? So that the scalpel is not needed in the future.
It is important to prevent the drug from getting into other areas of the face. The injection area is small, so you need to have a perfect understanding of the anatomical features of the middle zone. Practicing plastic surgeons have this necessary knowledge.
Strengthen the barrier
“Another important point is the condition of the skin barrier,” continues Elena Arabian. — In patients with chronic rosacea, transepidermal water loss is very pronounced, which leads to increased inflammatory response, degradation of the intercellular matrix and collagen structures — this contributes to early skin aging. The vast majority of people suffering from rosacea have sensitive skin, so they need adequate daily skin care. These products are based on caffeine, which improves microcirculation, glycerretinic acid derivatives, which restore the skin barrier, and sun protection.
Diagnostics
In the initial stages, arthrosis of the jaw is asymptomatic (more precisely, if there is pain, discomfort - they are attributed to a cold, problems with teeth, inflammation of the facial nerve, etc.). When constant pain appears, the face loses symmetry, it is impossible to chew - the patient begins to visit doctors.
Remember: at the slightest suspicion of TMJ arthrosis, you should consult a doctor; it is impossible to make a diagnosis yourself (if you are not an orthopedist or a healer).
In the clinic to confirm the diagnosis you will need:
- take blood tests (clinical - to identify an infectious-inflammatory process, biochemistry - for arthrosis, biochemical parameters should be normal);
- take an x-ray in 2 projections (the image clearly shows the deformation of the osteophyte, the narrowing of the joint space, but the articular cartilage is not displayed in the image, and it is impossible to assess the degree of destruction of the TMJ in the early stages);
- undergo an MRI or computed tomography (MRI uses magnetic waves, and computer tomography uses X-rays, so in the early stages, MRI is an advantage).
Occasionally, an ultrasound of the joint is prescribed. In addition, a personal examination is required, because often it is necessary to treat not only arthrosis, but also to remove defects in the dentition, and to treat the accompanying inflammation of nearby tissues.
First roles
In recent years, it has been believed that the leading roles in the appearance of rosacea are played by innate immunity, microbiota and the inflammatory process. Innate immunity triggers the production of antimicrobial peptides and proinflammatory cytokines. “With rosacea, their levels increase sharply. For example, the activity of antimicrobial peptides cathelicidins increases 10 times, and the level of peptidase increases 10 thousand times! - continues Elena Arabian. — Flora also works in a special way. Staphylococcus is of great importance here, but the leading role is played by mites of the genus Demodex. Together with bacteria, fungi and viruses, they are a representative of the microbiome, but with rosacea their increased density is noted: it has been proven that they provoke inflammation. One of the reasons why this microscopic mite becomes pathogenic is low skin moisture.
Factors that provoke exacerbation of chronic rosacea are considered to be stress, extreme cold or heat, alcohol intake, hot and spicy foods. Recently, soy sauce and vanilla have been added to the list of food provocateurs. But coffee and drinks containing caffeine have been rehabilitated.
Concomitant diseases play a major role in the development of rosacea. First of all, we are talking about gastrointestinal problems, celiac disease, Crohn's disease, infection caused by Helicobacter pylori, irritable bowel syndrome - these are all background conditions. Recent studies have shown a connection with hypertension, cardiovascular pathology, anxiety disorders, depression and diabetes. Considering all these factors, it is clear that patients with rosacea require a multidisciplinary approach.”
Clinical symptoms of rosacea are redness of the skin, the appearance of telangiectasia (dilation of small vessels) and various rashes: papules, pustules, fimas (inflammatory elements, rosacea, bumpy formations).

Where to have surgery for Bisha's lumps (before and after photos)
According to statistics, every third woman wants to remove Bisha's lumps (before and after photos are presented on the Internet and also in a special section on the website). Bichectomy is not the simplest surgical procedure. Its poor quality can lead to various complications.

- quality of equipment and materials used;
- qualifications and experience of specialists;
- guarantees;

The selected clinic must be fully equipped with modern equipment and high-quality materials. The safety of the procedure directly depends on these factors. It is also important to choose a medical center where doctors with extensive experience work. This criterion is the main guarantee of a positive result.
Prices for the service may vary in different private clinics in Moscow. The final cost includes the doctor’s work, materials used and diagnostic measures. As a rule, this price is specified in the concluded contract. Conscientious medical centers provide guarantees for the services provided. After surgery, most patients leave reviews on the official website of the clinic. If everything suits you, the feedback is positive. When a patient is dissatisfied with the quality of treatment, he leaves a negative review, warning other potential clients. Based on the number of positive and negative reviews, conclusions can be drawn about the quality of the services provided.
Treatment of headaches and facial swelling
Treatment tactics will depend on the exact diagnosis. It will include drugs to eliminate the underlying cause of the disorders, as well as to symptomatically eliminate swelling. The doctor will prescribe a medication regimen, which may include the following steps:
- for diseases of the cardiovascular system - cardiac glycosides, drugs for vasoconstriction, adrenergic blockers and anticoagulants;
- kidneys and excretory system - antibiotics as necessary, supportive agents;
- for allergies - antihistamines and hormonal anti-inflammatory drugs;
- hypothyroidism - iodine preparations, as well as levothyroxine;
- intoxication - gastric lavage and infusion therapy may be necessary.
Diuretics are prescribed to remove excess fluid. They are used for diseases of the cardiovascular system and for slowing down lymphatic drainage. However, such measures are temporary, so it is important to choose an effective treatment regimen that will eliminate the main cause of edema.

The effect after the procedure is very noticeable, it consists in improving the proportions of the face, reducing the volume of the cheeks, middle and lower thirds of the face, the appearance of more pronounced cheekbones, reducing the depth of the nasolabial folds and visual rejuvenation of the entire face. It is worth noting that the result will not appear immediately, since in the first days there will be slight swelling. The preliminary result will become noticeable after 7-10 days, when all sutures are removed (if non-absorbable ones were used). The final effect will be achieved 5-6 months after surgery.
