Will my dents under my lower eyes caused by mistake go away naturally?

Asked By:RideWhitinTheStorm in Marina del Rey, California

A year and a half ago I had upper and under eye surgery done and was happy with the results. A little while ago i went swimming using goggles that were to tight for about an hour. I have since noticed a dent were the outline of the pressure caused by the goggles causing the under eye area to look worse than it was before surgery. I feel so self conscious and avoid any extra activity because the tired old look, specially knowing it was inflicted by my own error, please I welcome any advice
