Deep indents under eyes, on my upper cheeks. First noticed them at 14, but they seem to have become much deeper and more visible (now 20). Causes? Could it fix itself? I lost about 10 kg when I was 12. They weren't visible then but are now after gaining the weight back slowly over 6 yrs. They are very visible in photos and under certain lighting. Had acne, but cavity much larger. Will weight loss at 20 likely make them worse (possibly 10kg)? Caused by sun damage at young age?
