I got a SMAS lift 4.5 years ago & got severe eye bunching only when I smile. I also had under eye filler 6 years ago (vobella) that I can still see the lumps under the left eye. I do Botox & micro needling with prp every 3 months & have done C02 twice & nothing helps. Have seen several surgeons & they all say there is no fix for this. I hate smiling and always hide behind sunglasses. Is there anything that can help soften these?! I'm in OC, CA so please let me know if you can help me!
