Malar bags/Pre festoons on a 20 year old?

Eileen112
I have recently had an unpleasant experience with carboxytherapy for the eyes, which I just found out that it is a treatment that's not approved by the FDA. I wanted to treat my dark circles with it. The swelling went down after days, but now it's been 3 weeks and some slight raised malar bags have been developed on the top of my cheekbones. I've never had them before and I'm panicking thinking I caused permanent damage. I'm wondering what should I do to decrease them?
