Under eye wrinkles and hyperpigmentation from eczema. Is there anything I can do about it? (Photo)

Question

hey, im a 20 year old with under eye circles and wrinkles. I dont know if this is caused from Eczema since i was a toddler which caused me to even now excessively rub my eyes and round my eyes. its actually quite distressing even when i try to cover the discolouration with concealer it usually just leaks into the creases so i usually am never happy with my appearence. is there anything i can do about either the discolouration or deep set lines?

Since concealer doesn't seem to be doing the trick, you may want to try a bit of HA filler such as Restylane or Belotero to fill in the hallow in the tear trough which will help reduce the appearance of dark circles. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to be assessed in person and discuss.

Thank you for sharing your case and photograph.  It does seem like you have some hyperpigmentation under your eyes.  Often, a good concealer is the cheapest and most effective way to improve the appearance of the condition.  Schedule a consultation with an oculoplastic surgeon to discuss whether surgery or fillers may also help.  Good luck!
