I was wondering about a surgery that did the opposite of blepharoplasty. I would want a fat INJECTION under my eyes and eye area. I hear most surgeons (in America) have never performed it, but they said it would be simple. I believe there is a less permanent version that fades over about a year. Also, would it cost more because it's considered specialty or less because it is a simple procedure? My eyes are also uneven if that would make a difference. Anyone in MO or MN? Thanks in advance!
