I'm 41 years old and I've had them for years. They're worse in the morning but never completely go away. I have a lot of allergies and sinus problems. When I press on the bags I feel bone. I also have high, prominent cheekbones and very low fat on my cheeks.
Answer: Treating Eye Bags? Fillers or surgery This is most likely a combination of fat and some fluid. Under eye bags can be permanently corrected with surgery or temporarily camouflaged with fillers (Restylane, Belotero, Volbella).There are great non-surgical options to fill in under eye depressions and hollowness. Using dermal fillers, a liquid eye-lift can be performed. A dermal filler such as Restylane would be placed in the cheek and tear trough to hide the depression or bag underneath your eye. Surgery would require a fat-repositioning lower lid blepharoplasty. In this surgical procedure, fat from the eye area is moved into the tear trough depression filling the actual depression. I hope this helps!

Answer: Dark Circles/Eye Bags/Wrinkles -- Fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella); Lasers (Fraxel/CO2); Renuvion; Microneedling/PRP; Peels Thank you for your question. There are many things you can do to treat under eye bags, but a combination approach with nonsurgical treatments would give the most improvement: fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella), lasers (Fraxel/CO2), Renuvion (J-Plasma), microneedling/PRP, Cosmelan peels and stem cells. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat might be the best solution long-term. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to see what is best for you and your goals. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Under eye treatment Based on your description and photo it is most likely that your bags are a combination of fat and fluid. Seeing an allergist is always a good idea for your to help control your allergies, but there is also a solution for your eye bags. During a lower blepharolplasty surgery excess fat and skin is removed. Remaining fat is redraped, revealing a smoother under eye appearance. See a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to learn more.

Answer: Under eye fat bags, worsened by fluid You definitely have under eye fat bags which are likely worsened in mornings by extra fluid collection. Consider transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with repositioning of the fat bags to the hollow area.

Answer: Are my bags fat or fluid Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photograph. Your lower eyelid bags are probably a combination of both fat and fluid. Typically, the fat swells over night when your head is low and allergies also increase swelling around the fat. Sleeping with your head elevated and cold compresses might help with the swelling, but you probably require Blepharoplasty to remove the fat. See an experienced Oculoplastic Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and discussion of treatment options. Good luck,
