Can Genetic, Hollowed Tear Troughs Be Corrected with Dermal Filler, with Low to No Risk of Development of "Bags"? If So, Which?

davidtorrette
Since I was a child I've had markedly dark lower lid area. Mostly on the inner-most quarter. From early adulthood onward my background has often been mistaken as Indian, though I'm of Mexican and Mediterranean mixed blood. Since aging onset, this area has expanded to the outward most quarter, to near the height of my pupil. My biggest concern with any dermal filler is overcorrection, or the formation of bags/festoons. If can be corrected, would it be best to start with few IU of hyaluronan?
