Answer: Prominent fold like a "Jelly Roll" under my eyes: What can be done? This is from prominent orbicularis eye muscle. Conservative botulinum neuromodulators "wrinkle blockers" (e.g., Xeomin, Botox, Dysport) can be given in small amounts and really make a nice difference. Removal of the prominent muscle through an eyelid incision just below your lashes can also be done. Best regards.

Answer: Treatment for lower eyelid "jelly rolls" More than likely, you have hypertrophy (enlargement) of the muscles immediately below the eyelashes. This is not fat.You can tell if it is muscle by squinting hard in the mirror (to bring out the "roll") and then relaxing and seeing the same "roll" virtually disappear.The only treatment would be a conservative removal of some of the excess muscle -- which would be done through a lower eyelid incision (just below the eyelashes). Be aware that if too much muscle is removed, the eyelid could fall away from the eyeball. Therefore, a conservative removal by an expert surgeon would be needed. Some muscle obviously must remain and therefore the goal of the surgery would be improvement in the "roll" -- but not perfection.Elliot Jacobs, MDNew York City
