Crepey, thinner undereyes after IPL and NYag for Dark circles, 22 Yrs old. (photos)

Junlee
I had 7 IPLs and 5 nYag in a course of 2.5 years to treat dark circles. Even after the first treatment, I noticed crepey eyes after recovery. Eyes would swell for a week after each treatment, but then leave with crepey eyes. Is it just dry or damaged? Is it permanent? I am 7 months post my last IPL. When I pull the skin down, I can still see small, silvery lines where I had none at all. Doctor said may be natural aging but I am only 22 and had very thick under eyes before.
