I recently just tried tear trough filler which has left me really unhappy as it had made me eyes worse (could still be from swelling) I have tried cheek filler which worked great to disguise them but I am still so insecure about my eyes, it really gets me down. I am looking for an experienced Surgeon in Sydney. I want to know if I am too young for this treatment? I am very nervous about having surgery done. I would love some advice on whether this is right for me or not.
