Many techniques available
There are many different options available for this problem, some temporary [fillers] others permanent [blepharoplasty with reposition of fat or fat grafting].

Eyelid surgery for eyelid hollows will only be improved with filling the hollow. This can be done with a blepharoplasty or fillers to fill the hollow such as Juvederm or Radiesse.
