How can I get rid of hereditary undereye hollows/tear troughs? What's my best option, Restylane, Fat grafts or surgery? (Photo)

Asked By:Ishmaelle in Athens, GA

I want to fix my eyes but am afraid I'll choose poorly and end up with a botched face. My eyes have gotten worse since puberty. They look JUST like my Pakistani father's, so it’s probably genes. I’m a longtime thyroid patient (Hashimoto’s and Graves’), but am stable and the eye doctor says I’m fine. My undereyes have also been called "allergic shiners.” I'm pretty enough IF I wear lots of makeup, but I still see the problem. Concealer doesn't work as it’s not a color flaw. Thanks for your help!
