Orbital rim bone and sagging

I may just be thinking out loud, but have you guys noticed that when someone has a strong orbital rim around their eyes they are less likely to develop sagging? If you look at pictures of Cristiano Ronaldo, I believe he may have this.

Is there any truth to this, or is it just over time no matter how strong the orbital bone is, sagging is going to occur that leads to undereye circles and other eye aging problems?

Thanks in advance for your input guys!

anyone with a strong, well defined bone structure would have less sag than the otherwise.. I wish I had stronger cheek bones so they could keep my cheek muscles up high..... and this Ronaldo guy looks so young, like in his early 20s in this pic, so he should not have any sag anyways... he needs to start wearing sunblock though!

I dunno.
I've seen people regardless of age with high cheek bones and eye bags.
I've seen people with minimal cheek bone protrusion and no eye bags.
I've seen people with varying bone structures with defined eye fat pads and also without prominent eye fat pads.
I dunno.
Interesting.

I think it is often said that people with flatter cheeks are at greater risk of developing eye bags.

There are so many things that cause eye bags...ones nutritional intake,allergies,lack of sleep,sun damage,aging,illness,the list is never ending. I have found that using ultrasound/ultrasonic, low level microcurrent,and a daily application of Easy Eye Solution products make my under eye area look like I did in my twenties. I think we all have to find what works for our individual needs. I do recommend the ultrasound as a place to start, I saw immediate improvement.

What you say is so promising Toby. Does the skin under your eyes look as thick and taught as it did in your twenties? Do you have dark circles?

Hi Toby, I have an ultrasound just sitting around. I would like to start using it again. Can you tell us how many minutes you use it around the eyes and how many days of the week? Do you use slow strokes towards the outer area of your face? What do you apply before and afterwards? Thank you. Sorry if this is off topic.

I do not have dark circles but my struggle has been with eye bags and crosshatching aging at the orbital bone area.I followed the thread on the Skindream and Sqoom(ultrasound devices that are 1mhz) I found a ultrasound/ultasonic device on ebay and it's specs were almost the same as the Sqoom and the Skindream. I used a gel from Rankine Remedies(the gel is now discontinued) and the results are great. I use it daily for about 3-4 minutes. If I fail to use it my skin doesn't look as good especially under the eyes. I plan to order this gel and try it.
http://www.jellenproducts.com/Conductive-Facial-Machine-Gel-p/jellen-ucg.htm?1=1&CartID=1 I think the key is getting a ultrasound that is also ultrasonic and is 1mhz not the 3. There has been a big discussion on the the 1 and the 3 and I choose to follow the 1mhz as is the specs of the SQOOM and SKINDREAM. I would imagine there are plenty of these on ebay for less than 70.00.

Toby,
I could be mistaken
but was it you that had some before - after pics on a thread here at EDS with Easy Eye Solutions? Whoever, it was --the results were very good.
Sorry, in advance if it wasn't you, but with your referencing Easy Eye Solution in a post here, I was wondering if the Easy Eye solution (without ultrasound) dried out your under eye area over time. I remember reading somewhere that the product caused under-eye dryness and crepey-sag over time. Would that have led you to use ultrasound for tightening your under-eye area? Just trying to get my mental references straight.

Kath91,
Oh yes my photos are on the Easy Eye Solutions thread and I have been using it for almost four years. If you go to the beginning of the thread you will see that I starting having the under eye issues with crepey skin after using copper peptides. It happened after 6 months of use. There is no one in my family on either side with under eye issues and my parents are in their 80's and still good looking under eye area. I started having some eye bags prior to using cps but not the crepey look. My under eye area was not dry then nor has it been at any time. My skin is very normal, as a teenager maybe slightly oily. Anyway Easy Eye Solutions has really been more of a treatment for me. The tuck does work immediately but long range the under eye area has improved greatly since four years ago. Last year when I started using the ultrasound I was doing so based on reviews of it helping lower face sag, I was actually satisfied with my under eye area. But I was more than pleased to experience further improvement when I used it under the eyes. I think it aids in lymph drainage and also allows deeper penetration of products. I notice I need less of the eye tuck as well. So has Easy Eye Solutions caused my under eye area to become dry over time with use? No, not as all, long term improvement has been my result and the addition of the ultrasound is making it even better. If you follow my posts you will also see I am using microcurrent as well as the new Tria laser....all of these are working nicely on this 57 year old face. Those of you that are younger will not need all of these devices. Wink

Toby,
thanks for your detailed and concise, up-beat feedback and confirmation that those were your pics.
I wondered in part because in your above (previous) post you mentioned that your under-eye area wasn't doing as well when you skipped ultrasound but normalized after using ultrsound. (or that's how I quickly interpreted what I read).
