How can I treat these malar mounds/festoons that I developed after getting under eye filler (Restylane Lyft). Need help! (Photo)

Asked By:kid1963 in New York, New York

Will they go away in time or will I need surgery? Had 6 rounds of hyaluronidase in the past month. Please do not suggest fillers. Should I try one more round of hyaluronidase injected directly into festoons? Doxycycline injection? Laser? RF micro needling? I want my old face back. So upset.
