I have a deep horizontal line under both my eyes. They are there when I smile. And because they are getting deeper, they stay when I don't smile too. Is it my cheeks that are causing this problem? What are my options?

Answer: Treatment for Deep Horizontal Lines Under the Eyes The deep line that you're describing sounds to me like your lid/cheek junction. This occurs at the lower orbital rim. It is accentuated by pseudoherniation of fat in the lower lids (bags) and descent of the cheek fat. Smiling will make it worse. Fixes can be temporary such as with fillers-Radiesse is good for this. Fat can be useful as well. But likely you are headed toward lower lid surgery and/or surgery for cheek elevation.

Answer: Where is the line? Is the line a contour problem or a crease in the actual skin? Irish skin, due to its fairness, can exhibit premature aging with wrinkling and thinning. If the line is cause by loss of elasticity, a peel of sorts, chemical or laser, might be just what the doctor ordered.
