Answer: Non-surgical treatment of malar festoons I have seen improvement in malar festoons in some patients using micro needling with radio frequency. I usually treat the area in 3 different sessions, spaced over time. There are a variety of micro needling devices that use radio frequency, but the one I use is Morpheus8.

Answer: Nonsurgical HA Filler Cheek Augmentation Can Improve Both Cheek Contour AND Under-Eye Bags & Hollows At least from the photo provided, there appears to be significant midface volume deficit contributing to the flattening of the cheeks, deep smile folds and the bags and festoons under the eyes. Before jumping into expensive, invasive surgery and its attendant post-operative downtime, you may wish to explore the use of an appropriately robust HA volumizing filler for the midface. Since the upper cheek region is a major support for the under-eyes, filler revolumization of this region can not only help to contour and more youthful, less drawn and deflated face and diminish the deep smile folds, but can secondarily improve the under the eyes and help mask the bags and festoons. Treatment, in experienced hands should take no more than about fifteen minutes with immediate, on-the-spot results that typically engender a "Wow!" reaction. I personally find this one of the most gratifying treatments to perform. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert. Hope this helps and best of luck.
