As you can see from these photos, there is a deep line as if it needs to be filled or something? I'm not sure if a facelift could work? Eyelift? Or even just a certain filler to sort this out. Thanks for any help.

Sometimes the filler will draw water into it and as i said the skin is very thin.

Tear trough treatment

Some people call this the tear trough or nasojugal fold.
