Malar Bags/Under Eye bags - Treatment for 16 Year Old

I'm only 16 going on 17 and my eye area looks like the eye area of someone who is 30 years older than me. I have not had this for a long time. I began noticing it August of 2010. I don't know whether is it caused because of lack of sleep, allergies, diet, or because I used a drugstore glycolic peel all over my face instead of avoiding the eye area. What treatment should I get, how much would it cost, and would you be willing to perform on a 16-17 if I had parental consent.

Tear trough hollows

You appear to have hollows under your eyes with some skin discoloration. While this can be due to fatigue, stress, your peel or a combination of factors. The hollows in the area of what is termed the tear trough can be improved with injectable fillers. Sometimes filling in this area also indirectly improves the discoloration by eliminating the shadow caused by the hollow itself. For tear trough fillers, I use restylane and find it to be very successful. However, injections into this area... more
