I had tear trough filler, it didn't work. What can I do? (Photo)

Question

I had tear trough filler injected in may of 2021. It gave me double eye bags and puffiness. I went to see a surgeon to get a lower blepharoplasty but was told the bags are not bad enough to treat surgically. The surgeon was quite reputable as well. If I pull the skin back it gives me the effect I want. I'm not expecting perfection but it seems as if there isn't a way to treat this. What can I do?

There are a few options when considering under eye concerns.  If filler didn't work and you're not a candidate for a lower blepharoplasty you can consider AccuTite.  This non surgical procedure uses RF technology to tighten skin and improve under eye bags.  You can add Morpheus8 treatments to optimize your results.

Hello @amadden46 thank you for your question and showing your pictures. in my opinion you are candidate for a lower blefaroplastia to remove the lower eyelids bags and puffiness and improve the appearance of the eyes. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon as each concept and surgical technique is different, there will be different possibilities for improvement depending on the vision and approach of the treating physician. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
