Under Eye Blue Veins, Skin Thinning, Loss of Fat, and Wrinkles? Only 21 Years Old. (photo)
I am only 21 years old. In the past 3 years it seems as if my skin has been rapidly aging, but more than just fine lines... Underneath my eyes are very large bulging blue veins. Towards the tear ducts are purple/briused looking tiny veins. My eyes look sunken in as if I've lost all fat. Additionally I am starting to have wrinkles. I have tried every product to moisturize, and even conceal but nothing has worked. Attached are two photos of my face now vs. 3 years ago. :( Please help!!!!

Early aging around the eyes
The larger blue veins can be treated by surgical removal or laser. The dark color under the eyes is due to pigment in the skin itself as well as the thin transparent nature of the skin in this area. This darkness is very difficult to treat and may persist. Until we have a better answer to this problem I would recommend camouflage with cosmetics. Finally, the sunken look around the eyes may respond to soft tissue fillers or fat grafts.

Lasers for Facial Veins

Vein under the eye
This is quite a sizeable vein under the eye and can be removed surgicaly with 1 or 2 micro puncture wounds which should heal nicely. You should have a plastic surgeon remove that for you because you are so young. This is not a safe area for sclerotherapy.
