Had filler placed under my eyes for tear trough deformities and now have festoons plus I'm now extra wrinkled. I have consulted 5 occuloplastic surgeons and I have had 5 different answers which caused MORE confusion. From implants to canthoplexy, fat transfer and full face laser to just C02 laser under the eyes. I settled on the least intrusive, C02 under the eyes, but I feel the whole face needed it. I need thoughts and opinions on this if you can. Thanks!

Answer: Lower eyelid problem There are various treatments available but none will give perfect results. Combination of procedures might be best. The main procedure you would benefit from is transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat bags repositioning and skin pinch removal. Later may get additional benefit from touch up filler and laser resurfacing.

Answer: Fillers and Festoons Festoons are caused by fluid retention in the delicate tissued between the eye and the cheek. Fluid drainage and dynamics can be upset by very subtle changes in some people. Filler injections completely change the fluid flow dynamics in the cheek and this is causing the festoons. its actually a very common side effect. Do NOT have and CO2 laser. You need to have the filler dissolved and then see how it settles. there may ba a role for less cohesive fillers or surgery to reduce the festoons. I cant say more based on the limited information that you have provided. Best of luck for your future treatment.
