To address concerns about under-eye wrinkles, potentially Dennie-Morgan lines, consider the following steps:
Consult a dermatologist for a personalized evaluation and treatment plan.Establish a daily skin care routine with gentle products for the eye area.Stay hydrated to maintain skin moisture.Maintain a balanced diet for improved skin health.Manage allergies with professional guidance.Avoid eye rubbing to prevent exacerbating wrinkles.Use topical treatments like retinoids or peptides under dermatologist guidance.Explore medical procedures such as laser resurfacing or filler injections if advised.

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser.  Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

I encourage you to visit with a dermatologist near you to discuss your under eye concerns.  Dennie Morgan lines may be associated with various skin conditions.  Your dermatologist can guide you in the appropriate treatment.  If you are a candidate, fillers can help improve the under eye contour.
