Genetic festoons and malar edema tear trough treatment options? (photos)

April 12, 2023
Asked By:Beautyresearch in Denville, NJ

I am a 33 year old non smoker, I don't spend much time in the sun and have had these small squishy(water bag like) above my cheek bone for as long as I can remember. They tend to change size day to day. I watch my salt content but it does not make a difference. I've always been extremely self conscious about it. I tried filler once with a minor result. I am afraid of my eye shape changing with surgery( blepharoplasty). Any input would be very appreciated.
