Asked By:ekardlog in Sweden, SE

Hello, I am 38 year old man. One and half years ago i noticed a small swelling along with tingling sensation on top of my cheek / below the eye.. this swelling was red at the beggining and looked a bit nice. But One year ago i noticed this redness gone and the swelling increased. Creating shadows under it . With research i knew these were called festoons / Malar bags . But i don't know what to do to get rid of them ? I am considering Ulthera . Thermitight ( Harder option since i live in Europe) .
