tretinoin cream 0.05%

i am not talking about the region immediately under the lower eyelid, but the region approx 0.5-1cm under it, where basically the lower part of your eye socket is

will applying tretinoin cause hollowing or will it improve the area, since tret is known to improve the skin?

i don't have any visible undereye hollowing, except marginally visible tear troughs, which again, everyone, irrespective of how good the undereye support is, has it at a young age

i'm talking about this dark shaded area

skin under your eyes is too thin
wouldn’t recommend tretinoin in general but esp not under your eyes
