I have always had a blue-ish/purple/red discoloration to my inner tear trough. I have been told that there is no laser treatment available for this, only creams. My plastic surgeon has had me using ZoMedical HYDRAFIRM™ Eye Brightening Repair Crème but it hasn't made a dent and I'm not sure it is my best option of treatment. I am willing to spend whatever it takes to find a great product to help with this discoloration. Are there any new products on the market that could help?
