Hello! I was wondering if there are any steps I can take to remedy this dark area surrounding my eye that has gotten worse over the last few years. I have read about creams for lightening and acids or some combination of both as treatment but I do not know if they would solve my issue or why my eyes are dark all around in the first place. Is there something I can do that does not involve a procedure being done or is that my only option? Thank you!

By most definitions, you do not have eye asymmetry. You do have, however, ptosis. or droop of the upper eyelids from stretch or dis insertion of the levator muscle causing a slight asymmetry of the upper eyelid crease. You need to see a plastic or ophthalmic plastic surgeon who specializes in...
Sleep will help! (Easier said than done for mothers, I know.) Filler to the tear troughs and an eye-brightening cream would help. For a long term effect, fat grafting and Co2 laser resurfacing to the lower eyelids would provide a beautiful result.
