Hi,

So looking at your pictures, it would appear that this could be fat beneath the eye and I can perform a Lower Blepharoplasty to help you achieve a less puffy look and to reduce the crease.

I can perform this in a way that there are no visible scars which is a popular option among my patients.

I could also use Fat Injections to help smooth this groove too, so it depends what look you wish to achieve.

My best advice, book a consultation with a surgeon to discuss your options.
