What Are These Lines Under my Eye and How Do I Get Rid of Them? (photo)
I'm only 22, and the last few months I've developed 2 quite deep lines under my eyes. I don't know whether they're premature wrinkles or dehydration lines, I feel I am too young to start getting wrinkles, I don't know any one else my age with these :( I have uploaded a picture of them. Are there any eye creams or gels which would tackle my problem? I'm in the UK.

Small amounts of Botox I think would be the only thing that may significantly help though I agree that in the long term, daily sun protection is important.

Treatment of lower eyelid wrinkles
Treatment of lower eyelid wrinkles can include topical Retin-A and moisturizers with sunblock, chemical peels, injectable fillers such as Restylane, small doses of Botox, or eyelid lift - blepharoplasty. At only 22 years of age, I would probably suggest you concentrate on protecting your eyelid skin with the topical treatments first. Our office carries the Obagi line of topicals which works well. Best wishes.
