My mother has always had big circles under her eyes. Now that I am a woman in my forties I want to avoid a similar fate! If I get an eyelift, will it help with crows feet or just the bags under my eyes?

I am 51 years old and see other women my age who look much better. There is less wrinkling and their skin seems smoother and younger.
