class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the eye area is more delicate than the skin on the rest of our face, most people have thin \u2014 or at least thinner \u2014 skin around their eyes. \u201cYour under eyes don\u2019t have many oil glands and collagen, which makes it prone to dryness, fine lines, and early signs of aging,\u201d explains <a href=\"https:\/\/www.michelegreenmd.com\/microneedling-under-eyes\">cosmeti<\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.michelegreenmd.com\/microneedling-under-eyes\" target=\"_blank\">c<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.michelegreenmd.com\/microneedling-under-eyes\"> dermatologist Michele Green<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re wondering if you\u2019re dealing with especially thin skin under the eyes, Dr. Green notes that some of the top symptoms include wrinkles, sunken eyes, unusually dark circles, and dry skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSome people also have tear troughs, or deep creases in the under-eye area that casts a shadow and leads to the appearance of dark circles,\u201d she adds. \u201cThere are both unchangeable and adjustable factors that can exacerbate thin skin or the appearance of it under the eyes and these include genetics, skin tone, aging, sleep deprivation, sun damage, tanning, smoking, and the use of certain medications.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_thicken_up_skin_under_the_eyes\"><\/span><a><\/a>How to thicken up skin under the eyes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s not always possible to thicken up skin under the eyes. Dr. Green says that for many people, having thicker or thinner skin in this area is genetic. That being said, there are a handful of action steps you can take and lifestyle tweaks you can make that might help. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apply_eye_cream\"><\/span><a><\/a>Apply eye cream<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/en-us\/shop\/active-hydration-bright-eye-complex\/p\/ENHEY15\">Eye Creams<\/a> are specially formulated treatment products with specific ingredients to target under eye concerns such as puffiness, under eye bags, and hollowness. \u201cThese creams may be formulated with a special delivery system to increase the efficacy of the ingredients,\u201d Dr. Green explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_retinol_serum\"><\/span><a><\/a>Use retinol serum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When shopping for eye creams and thinking about the best possible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/en-us\/blog\/pro-tips\/eye-cream-necessary\/\">eye care treatment<\/a> plan, Dr. Green recommends looking for eye creams with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/en-us\/blog\/doctors-notes\/retinal-vs-retinol\/\">retinol<\/a>. \u201cEye creams with retinoids are great for tightening up the undereye area,\u201d she says. \u201cRetinoids are a form of vitamin A that stimulates skin cell turnover and collagen production. This helps with evening out the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Protect_from_sun_damage\"><\/span><a><\/a>Protect from sun damage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SPF is everything when it comes to protecting the delicate skin around the eye area, and many of us don\u2019t think to apply it. \u201cIt\u2019s important to use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rodanandfields.com\/en-us\/category\/c\/sun-protection\">sunscreen<\/a> with an SPF of 30+ on a daily basis in order to protect your skin from ultraviolet radiation, which causes premature aging and the prominence of wrinkles and fine lines,\u201d Dr. Green says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Have_enough_sleep\"><\/span><a><\/a>Have enough sleep<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sleep Foundation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleepfoundation.org\/how-sleep-works\/how-much-sleep-do-we-really-need#:~:text=National%20Sleep%20Foundation%20guidelines1,to%208%20hours%20per%20night.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recommends<\/a> that adults get between 7 and 9 hours of sleep a night, but many of us aren\u2019t getting nearly enough shuteye \u2014 and this is detrimental to the delicate skin under our eye area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSleep allows the body to repair, therefore inadequate sleep will deprive the body of its regenerative cycle,\u201d Dr. Green says. \u201cWhile you sleep, your body goes through the natural cycle of cellular repair, replacing dead cells and restoring new ones. Inadequate sleep prevents the body from going through this natural process, which causes oxidative stress and leaves the skin looking sallow and your body and brain functioning ineffectively.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eat_a_healthy_diet\"><\/span><a><\/a>Eat a healthy diet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As they say, you are what you eat \u2014 and your diet can have a significant impact on the skin under your eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNutrition is very important, and an antioxidant-rich diet can give you the benefits of younger-looking skin,\u201d Dr. Green says. \u201cIn addition to antioxidants, eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids will help cellular turnover and increase collagen production, giving you radiant and smoother-looking skin. Fatty fish such as salmon is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, in addition to fruits such as berries and cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, and kale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_techniques\"><\/span><a><\/a>Other techniques<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the tips listed above, Dr. Green says it\u2019s important to be extra gentle with your eyes. \u201cExcessive eye rubbing can cause tiny blood vessels under your eyes to break, leading to wrinkles and dark circles,\u201d she explains. \u201cFor that same reason, you have to be extra cautious when removing makeup from your eyes. Do not try to rub the makeup off. Instead, apply makeup remover to a cotton pad and leave it on your eye for 20 seconds before gently getting it off through dabbing and circular movements. Always make sure your hands are clean before touching your face, especially your eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the skin around your eye area will always be thinner than the skin on the rest of your face, there are quite a few changes you can make if you\u2019re looking to thicken up and take the best possible care of your under eye area. So don\u2019t forget to get enough sleep, stock up on antioxidants and omega-3s, and apply that SPF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sources\"><\/span><a><\/a>Sources<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.michelegreenmd.com\/microneedling-under-eyes\" target=\"_blank\">Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr. Michele Green<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleepfoundation.org\/how-sleep-works\/how-much-sleep-do-we-really-need#:~:text=National%20Sleep%20Foundation%20guidelines1,to%208%20hours%20per%20night.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How Much Sleep Do We Really Need?<\/a> <em>Sleep Foundation.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn causes and treatments, and start taking care of it today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1540,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[34,27,77],"class_list":["post-1525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-skincare-guides","tag-active-hydration-serum","tag-eye-treatments","tag-multi-function-eye-cream"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What to Do About Thin Skin Under Eyes - The Skincare Source<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Have concerns about thin skin under your eyes and don&#039;t know what to do?
