Hello, In May of 2020, I was injected with Radiesse in my under eyes. (I now know Radiesse is not supposed to be injected there). It has been nearly 4 years and I still have eye bags. I had a thiosulfate injection which helped significantly but I still have a bag. Would a SmoothEye Fontana laser help with the bag? Is there still filler in there almost 4 years later? Please help! I have tried everything.
