Best radiofrequency or laser treatment for malar bag/festoon/midcheek groove?

April 1, 2017
Asked By:MonikaWeiss in Chicago, IL

I know the lower lid blepharoplasty and the fillers are the best to threat this, but my festoons are not that bad I think, sometimes it's like a line on my cheek and sometimes it is puffy, but it is always noticeable. I'm 21 years old, so I wouldn't like to have surgery or fillers. I read a lot about radiofrequency and laser treatments, but I don's know which would be the best for me. Thank you for advance.
