What is the Best Treatment for Under Eye Wrinkles?

I am 23 years old and I have had a single deep wrinkle under each eye for a long time, but recently they have become very severe, and smaller ones have begun appearing around them. I do the correct skin care procedures, using a cleanser only every other wash, followed by eye cream, moisturizer spf15, and now a Garnier product for deep winkles. How did this happen and how can I fix it? Once corrected how do I prevent it from happening again? The pic included doesn't quite show the severity of the problem, but I thought it might help.

It depends on the cause of the wrinkles

If the area under the eyes is sunken in then a filler such as juvederm or fat helps temporarily (4-6 months) to plump it up. If the creases are worsened when you smile then botox ($300) helps for about 3-4 months. If the creases are noticeable all the time then a more superficial filler such as collagen or juvederm is helpful ($550/syringe). Sometimes it is better to just chemically peel ($350/session for 3 session) with TCA or maybe laser ($750-1000/session) the areas to give a 1-3 yr... more
