Should I seek treatment for my under eye bags?

January 15, 2024
Asked By:DNE in McLean, Virginia

I had my eye bags removed about 20 years ago, but now am noticing an emergence of bags. Do you accumulate more fat in that area with age? I'm trying to decide if I should wait or seek treatment? One surgeon says I have enough fat to reposition and another surgeon says I don't have enough fat and just wants to remove what's there, but I'm afraid of having a hollow look. I don't like the idea of filling with fat as I'm afraid of ocular occlusion,. Please help!
