Dr Naderi, I am starting to develop malar bags around my eyes. I have it more on my right side than my left. I was wondering what can be done to fix these bags! I know they will only develop and get worse as they are hereditary and it seems to run in the family.
Thanks
Answer:
Hi,
Malar bags or pouches are areas of tissue fluid collection. They are different from lower eyelid fat bags which are removable. The malar bags or pouches are tough to treat. In bad cases, an extended lower eyelid external blepharoplasty may be done. Filler injections around the malar bags may be done as well. You may want to see an eyelid specialist like an Oculoplastic Surgeon to see if they have any other suggestions.
