Surgical improvement of severe malar bags for 25 year old? (Photo)

June 18, 2018
Asked By:urlm in New York, New York, USA

I've had these since childhood. Tried fillers 3 years ago and had worsening + long-lasting complications. I notice some recommend surgery while others warn against it, and the before/after photos are scarse, but a dr published on this very issue (congenital festoons) 2 months ago which looked promising, any thoughts on that? I realise there is no perfect and easy fix for this, but I'm willing to undergo surgery if I can see significant improvement, is that realistic? Please help.
