considerations for signs of aging around the eyes
PERIORBITAL EDEMA & HYPERPIGMENTATION
PROMINENT FORMS OF PERIORBITAL AGING
Periorbital Skin Concern
Generally referred to as the periorbital region, the eyelids and surrounding skin is the thinnest and softest of any bodily area, measuring as low as 0.2 mm thick.
The thin nature of this area contributes to its vulnerability to environmental damage and photo damage. The two prominent forms of aging in this region are:
Hyperpigmentation
• Dark circles in periorbital region
• Brown- pigmented
• Blue/pink/purple- vascular
• Shadows/skin colour- structural
• Visibility of dark vascular vessels
Edema
• Puffy eyes
• Erythema (redness)
• Under eyelid bags
• Festoons
IMAGE: Types I – IV illustrate the detailed classification of key age-related changes in all anatomical layers of the periorbital and adjacent facial areas. These changes become more pronounced over time, accentuated by underlying inflammation, photoaging and thickening of the dermis.

PHYTO-COMPOUNDS TO CONSIDER FOR PERIOBITAL CARE
Based on plant profiles achieved by Cellular Extraction, verified by 3rd party analytical laboratories, the table below summarises phyto-compounds that have supporting research in peer reviewed scientific journals of the core treatment considerations mentioned. References are not based on clinical trials of the Cellular Extracts. Cellular Extraction delivers the natural molecules in their entourage, maintaining their integrity as they exist in the cell. Analytical testing is done on the Glycerine/water Cellular Extract concentrate format.
