I went to a surgeon today and he told me that I don't need restalyne tear trough filler and that my eye bags can be made better by adding volume to my cheeks ??? When I've looked at reviews resylane works great will cheek fillers really work on my eyebags ??
Answer: Restylane Restylane would work for that area. The cheek would improve with Voluma. The eyebags can be permanently removed scar free with transconjuncticval lower lid surgery. All these procedures are experience dependant and not all surgeons possess same skills and capabilities, knowledge of anatomy and aesthetic judgement. Thanks for excellent question

Answer: Cheek filler or tear trough filler? In your photos you appear to have protruding under-eye fat pads and relative tear trough hollowing and relatively flat cheeks. The answer to your questions depends on how your doctor defines tear trough and cheeks. Your shadows are mostly in your tear troughs but the upper and mid cheek are continuous with this area. If you've ruled out surgery to reduce the fat pads, you would benefit from filler in the tear trough (Restylane works well here) and in the upper cheek. Both will help to smooth the transition from the under-eye bags to the cheeks.

Answer: Restylane is the filler of choice for eyebags Thank you for sharing your question. For mild bags, Restylane injection is a good treatment option. The tear troughs can be filled in order to hide the shadows created by the bags. See a specialist in this delicate area. Good luck,

Answer: Lower eyelid bags treatment options Thank you for the question and the photos. Basically, there are two options in patients with your situation: 1) fillers to camouflage the area; or 2) removal/repositioning of a small amount of fat. The former is non-surgical and quick with very little downtime; hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers such as Belotero or Restylane are used to camouflage the eyelid bag by evening out the contour and reducing shadow. If needed, a thicker filler such as Voluma or Radiesse can be used in the cheek to "support" the area. The latter option is surgical -- but in young patients with minimal skin excess, the recovery is generally quick. For many patients, a small amount of the excess fat can be removed or repositioned through an incision inside the eyelid. No external scars are made. Best of luck moving forward!

Answer: Treatment to help eye bags You appear to have some protruding fat causing the bags under your eyes. In general, this can be improved with lower eyelid surgery or a filler. I prefer using Restylane to this area for my patients. The filler can be placed just under the bags to help camouflage them but the result is fairly temporary. In some cases, the result can last a year or so with Restylane. The surgical result would be much longer lasting.
