I have undereye bags/puffiness & this line started coming from the inner coner of my eye to my cheeks. The line is very noticeable. I have used several different eye creams(9yrs) nothing is working.Im 29 and when I was 15, I started to use a skin fade cream to lighten blemishes regularly. But I used it under my eyes, eyelids, basically my whole face. It toned my skin but I noticed under eye bags & puffiness. I think this cream made my skin very thin & I just want to get rid of the bags/ lines.

Hi I would definitely recommend thyroid tests - you may have an under active thyroid that could cause this appearance. As you have an atopic condition - this may contribute too.Festoons or malar bags can be challenging to treat - please do not get dermal fillers, as this can worsen the swelling.
You should obtain an in person evaluation by an oculoplastic surgeon. It appears the smaller eye is more sunken than the other (or the other eye is more bulgy). This is likely congenital in your case resulting from underlying bony facial asymmetry.
Yes this is relatively normal. Edema (swelling) can increase the weight of the upper lids and make them seem heavy. This will start to get better at 14 days.
