Answer: Malar Mounds in 25 year old Dear Leah,Festoons and Malar mounds are difficult conditions to treat. I find that fillers tend to fix them in an pushed out fashion when really it would be better to have them flattened instead.I have had success using lasers to stimulate the body to tighten the skin in this area and improve the appearance of festoons and malar mounds.I'll include a video below.I hope this was helpful.

Answer: Likely you had a filler service that was not right. This is a mid cheek groove. It will not be fixed with lower eyelid surgery, laser resurfacing, or fat grafting. This is a small problems that is best handled with hyaluronic acid filler is ideal for this. However, it is a fussy service. Only a tiny fraction of injectors are any good and dealing with this issue. Your prior service might actually be making your issue worse. A careful analysis needs to be done to determine if the old service needs to be removed or modified. This is done with enzyme. Once the tissues have settles (at least a few days) the correct filler service is then placed. The right filler treatment make all the difference.

Answer: Treatment of festoons Thank you for sharing your question and photo. Festoons are particularly difficult to treat. Surgery is usually not a good option. Minimal improvement has been found with fillers, laser skin resurfacing and other techniques. Make sure to see an experienced Oculoplastic Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and discussion of treatment options. Good luck,

Answer: Best Options for Malar Bags--lasers, RF, fillers, peels Lasers, RF treatments, fillers, and peels work best in this area. You can get surgery or repositioning of fat to help along with RF / lasers. I suggest seeing an expert for a formal evaluation as a team approach may be best. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Thermage could help you Thermage uses radiofrequency waves to heat and contract the collagen deep in the dermis. This causes an three dimensional tightening of the cheeks which can improve malar bags significantly. Give that consideration. Good luck
