June 19, 2025
Asked By:Josepedro in Boston, Massachusetts

I noticed for a little while I have these reddish things below my eyes, sometimes it is very noticeable and sometimes it isn't but I just learned that it could be a festoon or malar mound/bag - could someone please help and advise? I don't want them to get worse or have them in the first place lol - is it just from me not getting enough sleep?
