Congenital malar bags - Are there any success stories treating these?

jennik42
I’m 35 and have had these bags since I was a little girl. I’m thin and have also been a runner. I take good care of my skin, don’t have allergies, watch my salt, get plenty of sleep and drink lots of water. I’ve tried laser, PRP, filler which made it worse, and termitight. Are there any success stories treating these? I saw a procedure where a doctor cauterized the malar bangs the did laser to smooth the area? Is this a viable option for me?
