Please help. I have genetics lines and have been self-conscious about smiling for the past 5 years and am only 30 years old and starting to lose hope that anything besides surgery can be done for the skin around my eyes? I have tried plasma pen twice with 8-9 months in between but it only helped for a tiny moment and I'm worried it might be causing my skin to thin cause dark circles have gotten worse with veins showing through skin. Is HIFU or a thread lift a good option? Or something else?
