Crepey Under-Eye Skin
What is the Problem?
Crepey under-eye skin is when the delicate skin under your eyes starts to look thin, wrinkly, and almost “paper-like.” Instead of being smooth and firm, it crinkles easily, especially when you smile, laugh, or squint. Many people describe it as looking like tissue paper under the eyes.
This condition doesn’t just make you look older — it can also make you feel tired and less confident, even if the rest of your skin is in good condition.
What Causes Crepey Under-Eye Skin?
Several factors come together to cause this problem:
- Natural Aging – As we age, collagen and elastin (the proteins that keep skin firm and bouncy) break down, making the skin thinner.
- Sun Damage – UV rays speed up collagen loss, especially in the under-eye area where skin is naturally delicate.
- Dehydration – Without enough moisture, the skin under your eyes can dry out and crease more easily.
- Lifestyle Stress – Lack of sleep, high screen time, and stress all make under-eye skin more fragile.
- Genetics – Some people naturally have thinner under-eye skin, which can become crepey earlier.
How to Fix the Problem
The good news: crepey under-eye skin is not permanent. With the right care and treatment, you can strengthen, hydrate, and smooth this delicate area.
At-Home Tips:
- Hydration is key – Use a gentle eye cream with hyaluronic acid or peptides to lock in moisture.
- Protect from the sun – Always wear sunscreen and sunglasses to protect collagen around the eyes.
- Improve sleep & lifestyle – More rest, less screen time, and good hydration all help your under-eyes recover.
Professional Solutions:
While creams can help, professional treatments go deeper to improve collagen and restore firmness:
- Eye-focused facials – Designed to hydrate, brighten, and firm under-eye skin.
- Microneedling / MTS for eyes – Stimulates collagen production in the thin skin area.
- Microcurrent massage – Gently lifts and tones the under-eye area, improving circulation.
