I had Botox for (crow's feet)and then Thermage with bad results. The Botox is just about gone, but the Thermage applied under my eyes to fix wrinkles created by Botox damaged my skin(I wake up with rings and lines under my eye as well as dark circles - none of which I had before the treatment). They go away some what as the day goes on - but it really upsets me to see this every morning. Is there a cream I can use to help? I'm scared to get another procedure done due to my bad experiences.

Need photos to answer this one

It's impossible to figure out exactly what is going on here.  I'm not sure exactly where these lines are around your eyes, and whether the dark circles are due to hollowing or just skin coloration.  A photo would be helpful.  Guessing: filler might be useful, or perhaps Botox used a bit differently, or maybe a blepharoplasty.  But not sure at all without a better evaluation.
