What Can Be Done For Deep Grooves and Thin Skin Under Eyes?
Filler is actually a reasonable option. It just needs to be placed more deeply to prevent the Tyndall effect - blue discoloration from superficial filler placement. The results should last up to one year. The more durable option is a lower eyelid procedure where the small lower eyelid bag is advanced into the groove to give the lower eyelid/ cheek junction a more youthful appearance. I hope this information is helpful.

Fat will do the Trick
Thank you for the photos. Fat is the answer. Fat redraping through a blepahroplasty or fat injection.

Deep grooves and hollowing under eyes
You have significant hollowing in the lower eyelids and upper cheeks which can lead to a "tired" appearance.

Deep Grooves Under Eyes
Hi Sing. You are a great candidate for tear trough injections. While surgery is an option too, most of our younger patients do not opt for surgery at a young age. Restylane would be a great option to fill in the grooves you highlight in the photo. It's likely that it would take about 2 cc's of product and last about a year. In our practice this procedure costs around $1,000 for 2 cc's.
View the photos below for results with the procedure. Thanks...

Eyelid bags
You are a candidate for lower blepharoplasty and fat transposition to tear trough. You are also a candidate for non surgical fillers to tear trough. Products like restylane fine line, juviderm refine, teosyal are excellent in this area. There is also a role for PRP to enhance skin quality.
