Is my under-eye puffiness fat?

Common questions

Can under-eye bags be treated without surgery?

It depends on the cause. Skin laxity and texture may respond to non-surgical options; prominent fat bags may need a surgical opinion.

Can it be treated in one visit?

Some options suit a single visit; others work as a series. Your plan is set around your travel dates.
