Which procedures will help with under eye skin bunching up when I smile? (Photo)

August 24, 2017
Asked By:rickifer in Toronto, ON

I am 27 years old and had persistent under eye irritation due to allergies in my work place. Because of the irritation and my rosacea, I was unable to moisturizer under my eyes for an entire year. This caused under eye skin thinning. Now, any time I smile, the skin bunches up like in the photo and I have developed severe fine lines which seem to get worse by the week. What procedures would help to thicken the skin under my eyes, reduce the skin bunching, and lessen the fine lines?
