Eyelid bags
The best treatment for lower eyelid bags is removal of the fad pads. This is done thru a transconjunctival incision located on the inside of the eyelid. We have seen many complications from fillers injected into the eyelids and do not recommend them

Restylane vs Juvederm, under eyes treatment
I agree that Restylane will pose less of a risk for injection under the eyelids as it attracts less water; thereby diminishing the risk of swellling or bumps from injection.
Radiesse, Artefill , Sculptra or fat injections are other good options.
Please consult in person with an experienced Board Certified Plastic prior to making any treatment decisions.

In many cases, a patient would benefit from surgery, but is not ready to go that route or is financially unable. In this case, we use Restylane to improve the situation and we use...

Best treatment for bags under the eyes
There is no one best treatment for bags under the eyes, as each person is different and each person may require different treatments. Sometimes bags under the eyes can be improved with surgery. If you are only looking at non-surgical treatments, then fillers can be sometimes used. Restylane is not necessarily better than Juvederm. They are just different brands of the same material. Belotero is another brand of the same material as well. Some doctors may...
