Camille Cash, MD · Answer

There are a few options to help improve the lower lid contour.  An in person examination and discussion of your goals will help determine the right recommendation for you.  A non surgical option is Morpheus8.  This treatment combines RF technology with microneedling to improve overall skin tone and texture.  It is safe for the under eye area.  Surgically you may be a candidate for a lower blepharoplasty to contour the lower lid.  We always recommend using medical grade skin care products like Transform MD and wearing sunscreen every day.

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

It is very likely that you have small cheek bones, condition known as malar hypoplassia. This results in early signs of lower eyelid aging and contributes  to lower eyelids laxity, including visible roundness, bowing. Lower bleparoplasty and lower eyelid tightening would be procedures to consider, as well as bone augmentation by means of cheek implants or fat grafts. In person or teleconference consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in cheek augmentation and blepharoplasties is recommended. Good luck.

Facial aesthetics are primarily determined by skeletal bone structure.
Aging at surgeon characteristics, but each unique person facial appearance is in the end. Mostly determined by bone structure.
Everybody has a unique facial appearance and yours is what you were born with.
There’s no explanation. It just is what it is.Your question is a little vague.
It might help if you could explain what your concern is.
Best,
