What is the best option to treat dynamic under eye wrinkles? 31 y/o (photos)

Hi Nurturing410228,
Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, your under eye wrinkling is caused by hyperdynamic muscle activity. The best treatment in this case would be Botox injections into the areas in order to decrease the excessive muscle activity. As this is an off-label application of Botox, I would strongly recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist familiar in performing this procedure.
Hope this helps!

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Best,

Since these are dynamic wrinkles, Botox, which works to diminish overactivity of muscles of facial expression, has been used for years to diminish the "jelly roll" like bulges that some people exhibit under their eyes with smiling. In experienced hands, treatment takes about one to two minutes to perform and the results are typically seen one to seven days later. You would be wise to make sure to consult with an expericed, board certified cosmetic dermatologist injector and best of luck.

Thanks for your question. Two of the most effective devices I have worked with for this indication are:
Sofwave- utilizing microfocused ultrasound to deliver heat to the deep dermis at a depth of 1.5mm, generating new collagen and elastin in the skin. It's a very popular treatment also as it has no downtime!
Morpheus8- utilizing RF energy delivered at the tips of micropins. With this approach you get the collagen stimulation of the heat PLUS the collagen stimulation of the microneedling, so you can potentially get more result per session, but at the expense of 'some downtime'- puffiness, faint redness for a day or two, potential bruising. Morpheus8 could of course also be combined with PRP.
Both work very well, both require topical numbing. Both have small sized applicators for treating the under eye region: "Precise Handpiece" for the Sofwave, and "Prime Tip" for the Morpheus8.
I hope that helps!

You can consider Moprheus8 to help improve overall skin tone and texture under the eyes. This treatment combines microneedling with RF technology. Another option is lower blepharoplasty which can address the excess skin and smooth the under eye. I've included a video that I hope you find helpful.
