I am a woman in my early thirties, & I have experienced puffiness under my eyes since I was a little girl. My puffiness is not severe, but bothersome. I am seeking advice as to what the best procedure would be to eliminate the issue. I have been doing research & thought Laser Blepharoplasty might be an option for me. I am interested in the procedure which would be the least invasive, however, actually rid me of the puffiness. The picture posted is of my eyes. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Lower lid issues

Filler for Eye Puffiness
Filler, such as Juvederm, may help smooth your lid-cheek junction and make your eyes appear less puffy. However, care must be taken with the amount injected and the areas of injection to make sure you achieve a natural looking result. An HA product is a good choice since we can "melt" it away if you do not like the results. If you use permanent or semi-permanent products you will be in bad shape if you do not like the results.

Restylane in tear trough improves under eye puffiness.
Hi.
This certainly the least invasive approach. It is technically tricky, but when done right, the results are usually gratifying, and they last at least two years.
