I have a more pronounced under eye bag under one eye. The appearance doesn’t bother me when I’m not smiling. But when I smile, the bag is much more pronounced on one side only. I’m 42 and it’s been like this for about 4 years. I tried fillers about a year ago and it did make the bag blend in when static (not smiling) but it still created an under eye roll when smiling. The asymmetry bothers me most. Should I get the a lower blepharoplasty for just the one eye?
Answer: What you need is an examination. Unfortunately, if you offer yourself up for surgery, that is likely what you are going to get whether you need it or not. First your bag does not look like a fat bag. I could be the contour of your orbital rim plus herniated fat or something else. What could be that something else be. you ask? It could be your old hyaluronic acid filler. That stuff does not just go away. No it sits there and over time can hold a disproportionate amount of tissue water. Yes, your old filler could be responsible for this fullness. Since injecting this with enzyme is easier than having surgery, that is what I would do first.

Answer: Wrinkles around the eyes Hello and thanks for the question. The wrinkle you are describing is a dynamic wrinkle - since it only appears when you smile. This means the muscles used to create your smile are also creating the wrinkle. Dynamic wrinkles are usually addressed most effectively using a neuromodulator like Botox or Dysport. The neurotoxin relaxes the facial muscle, smoothing away the line in the process. These injections take just a few minutes to complete and do not require any downtime afterward. Results typically last about three or four months before another session is needed. Make sure you work with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is also an expert Botox injector for best results.
