    dermal fillers are probably your best bet, and in that area, they last about a year.

    This depends on what type of bags you're talking about.... do you have excess skin that would need to be cut off (blepharoplasty) or do you have indentations, or hollows (what I had). If you have the physical hollows that still look shadowy even after you apply a concealer, you would be a great candidate for Restylane in your tear troughs, this is what I did, and I am very happy with my results. It's been.... wow, six months or more, and it looks exactly the same. They say it lasts much longer in your tear troughs than in your lips because you don't use or move that area as much. It's amazing! It completely erased my circles! So now with concealer, they are nonexistent.

    I'm gonna wait till my thirtieth to do the restylane maybe sooner. I have the same thing, hollows that make me look tired and sad when I most definately am not!! I had them as a weak little kid, I think it was not exercising or eating any animal products growing up? I don't know but I'm sick of it!!!

    I also have the hollows and think I want them filled.

    I think the OP is describing having a bit of excess skin / fat though, so it's sort of the opposite of what you'd need fillers for.

    op, keep an eye out for dermal discounts. lots of doctors have holiday specials for juvederm and restylane, and you'll be really happy with the result.

    Ok, just remember to go to someone who is experienced in this, since it is considered off label use of Restylane, therefore some Dr.'s won't do it. Make sure they inject it deep, on your bone along your orbital rim. If they don't know what they're doing and inject it in your tissue, not deep enough, it will look really fucked up. Also, you don't need much, I believe she used .4 cc on each side, and the extra .2 cc she put in my lips. If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, I can recommend the most amazing Botox/Restylane/Radiesse injector EVER!

    i think there are only SLIGHT differences between the two (as in, people who try both usually prefer juvederm over restylane but if price is an issue, you can definitely go with restylane and get good results as long as your injector knows what they are doing). DEFINITELY do your research to find the best injector in your area. go out of your area if necessary. my undereye area + concealer = heaven.

    The best all natural remedy I have found for this is slices of potatoes!!!!!! Like cucumbers, they are very refreshing for the eye area!!!

    I also like to moisturize my eye area with very light oils, such as extra virgin olive oil or grapeseed oil. Jojoba oil is also good for the skin and is the closest to our skins natural oils.
