After decades of dealing with under eye bags, and now constantly seeing myself in photos (especially on social media) my eyes just look worse and worse over time. I finally took the plunge and went to see a surgeon. He told me that it’s not just bags under my eyes, but also a deep groove of tissue that connects the skin to the bone underneath. This creates not only a nice pocket of fat, but it makes it look a lot worse too. Originally I was going to go ahead and have fat transfer surgery but after reviewing the pros and cons between the surgery and injectable fillers, I decided to go with fillers to start with. Here are my results. I’m extremely satisfied and I believe after the fillers wear off in a year or two I will get the surgery done.

I was so pleased with my injections but I was told they should last 1-2 years. 2 if I’m lucky, of course, but I haven’t even had them a year and they’ve already faded. Highly disappointed in that. :(

The deep grooves under my eyes have always mad me look old and tired.
