I don't think it makes sense to treat eye bags with fillers, simply because eye bags (which are extra fat or skin under the eyes) need to be removed surgically, there's already extra tissue with eye bags so adding filler on top them is only going to make the bags heavier. What can be treated with fillers is the problem of undereye 'hollows' which is the opposite of baggy eyes. I hope things are better for you though...restylane is reversible incase you don't like the results. I'm getting my mid-cheek and tear troughs (undereye hollows) done soon and I managed to do some reading on fillers.
maybe you can get fat grafting done between the implant and the skin area with ripples? Maybe that would hide the rippling? I found out that some surgeons actually do this for patients who ripple after BA no matter what. Some can even do it for you at the same time as your BA. You've just got to have enough fat or you'll have to gain a little weight so your surgeon can harvest that fat and use it to fill in the rippling areas. Ask your surgeon about this. Good luck. I'm getting BA (over the muscle, don't want unders) but I'm afraid of rippling too. I like to know that there are always options to consider if I face that problem.
