Can cheek augmentation help reduce the appearance of under-eye bags or dark circles?
Cheek augmentation primarily focuses on enhancing the volume and contour of the cheeks, which can indirectly improve the appearance of under-eye bags and dark circles to some extent. However, it may not completely eliminate these concerns, and additional procedures such as lower eyelid surgery or non-surgical treatments may be more effective in specifically addressing under-eye bags or dark circles. It is crucial to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon who can assess your specific concerns and recommend the most suitable treatment options for you.
