You can see in the photo that I have a lot of facial asymmetry, which doesn't really bother me, but the uneven eye bags do. I have scoliosis and TMJ Disorder, which I am sure both contribute in some way to my uneven face. I have more puffiness under my right eye than my left, but it also seems that my right cheek is more dominant and it "squishes" my eye bag even more, to the point where my right eye squints when I smile broadly. Is there anything that can be done to reduce or eliminate this?
