Fractional C02 or RF laser can tighten/smooth under eyes

I am assuming the Juvéderm was removed using hyaluronidase. Assuming so would lead me to recommend you ask for more in the areas where there are lumps still.

Fraxel for dents and bags after Juvederm removal?

This is a hard question to answer without seeing you or photos of you. I think Fraxel may have a role here, but the treatment may need to be somewhat aggressive, but not too aggressive, depending on the size of the dents and bags that are being treated.
