Any Topical Solutions For Tear Troughs?

Hi, I already know the answer is "No" probably, but wanted to give it a try anyway. Is there any topical cream available, by prescription or otherwise, that can perhaps reduce the symptoms of tear troughs (i.e., slight bagginess). I hear a "caffeine cream" can help a little but I doubt it and wanted to know if there is anything out there that can treat (or prevent) tear troughs topically. I doubt it, but just curious. Thanks.

For topical help a basic facial moisturize or eye cream provides hydration which is very helpful. Perhaps not as helpful as fillers or surgery, but much better than no treatment.

The least expensive moisturizer from the drug store seems to be just as good as the most expensive... more
