Rapidly got new fine lines above my eyes. What do you recommend? (Photo)

Question

Hi, within a span of 2 months I have seen new fine lines above my eyes(mostly my left eye). I don't know what the reason is and never experienced this before. I am 36. Is it something that can be improved with applying a product, or do I need a procedure? what do you recommend? Thanks

Photos are helpful. Your skin looks very dry and if anything irritated. I may even call it dermatitis. You need to check your skin care to see if you are becoming allergic to it, your face wash, detergent, etc,Need to get a very good moisturizer for sensitive skin or eczema prone skin and a low dose topical steroid. See a dermatologist if no improvement in 1-2 weeks.
Once your inflammation has resolved, you need to protect your eyelid area with moisturizers and sunscreen.

A visit to the dermatologist can rule out any medical concerns.  For the future we recommend using medical grade skin care products like Transform MD and wearing sunscreen every day, even in the winter.
