Looking at your photos, I have observed that you have lower eyelid fat prolapse. Lower eyelid fat prolapse means that the fat pockets normally around your eyes have pushed forward. In MRI studies, there is an increase in volume which is called herniated fat. The concerns about how to approach this and its consequences are becoming more confusing these days. There are a lot of options suggested by different doctors as treatments for under eye bags. There are people like myself who tend to advocate more definitive solutions like surgery. However, eyelid surgery is not a generic procedure. There are two types of approaches: one is transcutaneous which is from outside of the eyelid and the other is transconjunctival. In a case like yours, I would typically do transconjunctival blepharoplasty. This is a technique where I work at the fat pockets from the inside of the eyelids, performed under local anesthesia with LITE™ sedation. This reduces and repositions as is appropriate so it looks like you never had the fat pockets there. With this procedure, the concern about hollowing becomes an issue. Hollowing is often perceived when someone’s eyelids are pulled downward and that is really what scares a lot of people. This situation is called lower eyelid retraction. As a specialist in this area, I see a lot of patients from all over the world to correct lower eyelid retraction and to help them look as if they are not as hollowed. In addition, with facial aging, there is volume loss in the cheek area below the bags look flat. The solutions for that are Radiesse, Restylane, fat, or cheek implants. I suggest to not put so much volume to camouflage the fat pockets. I have patients who got over puffed and they look unrecognizable or unnatural. I end up using an enzyme like hyaluronidase to actually dissolve the fillers. I think you need to try to narrow your decision and try to figure out which doctor resonates with you and you feel comfortable with. Otherwise, meet with the additional doctors. From my perspective as a 20-year cosmetic oculofacial plastic surgeon, transconjunctival blepharoplasty most likely would be starting point for you to address the dominant feature on your face.
