Most of those doctors do not conduct phenol peels...and there are too few reviews for them regarding their chemical peel experience. One of your featured doctors indicated that chemical peels require extensive experience so I am trying to find someone who has done it extensively. Thanks for your response, though.
Wonky-eyes, I had the same experience as you.

I had mild cortisone shots under my eyes about 3 months ago and I found it helpful in improving the bumb(s)/bags. Go to someone trustworthy. Rather have him/her inject too little and then repeat if it proves effective and you require more. I was told it takes about 6 weeks for the full effect but the effect set in quickly for me.
Don't expect a miracle, though. My under eye area is still not what it was pre-juvaderm!

WOw! Long thread!

Just wanted to share that having suffered from lumpiness under eyes for THREE years, (multiple - 5 + - vidase injections did nothing to alleviate) I had steroid injections a couple of weeks ago and it worked miracles. For anyone with this problem, I recommend finding a doctor experienced with this product and trying it. He said it worked on approx. 50% of his patients (for once, I'm one of the lucky ones!)
Thank you!
Also, do you remember what they charge for steroid injections?
