Are These Tear Troughs and What Can I Get Done? (photo)

January 10, 2013
Asked By:Dog101

Recently in my teen years Ive started to examime my face more and noticed these thin lines under my eyes that run from the corner of the eye (near the nose) to the area around my cheekbone. I thought these were tear troughs but when I look at other photos, these lines dont go right below the eyes in a moon shape. I dont know what they are, and I know I shouldnt be worrying about this because im a teen. Well I would just like to be informed, are there any options?
