From Auckland New Zealand Nearly 40 yrs old of West Indian, pacific and German/Scottish descent. Overall my skin I think is quite good for my age but I have always suffered from bags and/or dark circles. The bags are very puffy and have increased in size also even more so over the last few years. I look tired constantly, makeup does next to nothing to hide them protruding out. It’s all I see in the mirror and photos and I am highly insecure about my face now, what can I do?

Answer: Lower blepharoplasty You have prominence of fat underneath the eyelids and this is separate from the bulging. You would benefit from a lower blepharoplasty and release the septum to allow the fat to transfer to the tear trough and diminish the prominence you dislike. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Consider A Robust HA Volumizing Filler For The Cheeks To Improve Cheek Contour & Under-Eye Hollows/Bags From the photos provided, it appears that a robust HA volumizing filler would work well for contouring the face, and at the same time improving the under-eye areas and diminishing the smile lines. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert, since expertise and experience are required by the injector to ensure that the specific contours of the female face are preserved, so as not to inadvertently masculinize the face. Hope this helps and best of luck.
