What can I do for dark puffy under eye bags? (Photo)

December 9, 2022
Asked By:trixie619 in Los Angeles, California

I am about to be 37. I have always had a little under eye puffiness/darkness, even when I was a kid. The last couple years it has gotten a lot worse. In certain light/photos, the combination of the color and puffiness makes it look like I have a black eye! I was told I'm not a candidate for tear trough filler, but eye creams don't seem to do anything. What else can I do to treat this area? Photos are in natural light with no makeup.
