Before And After Under Eye Bags & Dark Circles Case 1223

ABOUT OUR PATIENT
This gentleman in his 70s came to MFI concerned about signs of aging, especially the deepening of his nasolabial folds. Like many patients, he believed these folds were the main issue. However, a closer look revealed significant volume loss in the midface and cheeks, leading to under-eye bags, hollowing, and a visible “Z-shaped” crease across the cheeks. These changes made him appear tired and older than he felt.

MFI TREATMENT PLAN
We recommended our Midface & Under-Eye Package, designed to restore volume where it is most needed:

• Midface & Cheeks: Filler was placed to rebuild natural contour, lift the cheek area, and provide foundational support. This support also helped reduce the depth of the nasolabial folds.
• Under Eyes: Subtle filler correction smoothed the hollowness, reduced bags, and brightened the eye area for a more rested appearance.
• Nasolabial Folds: In addition to the indirect lift from the cheeks, a small amount of filler was placed directly in the folds to soften their appearance further.

By combining foundational support with targeted correction, we achieved balance and harmony across the face.

THE OUTCOME
The transformation is striking. His under eyes now look smoother and brighter, and his midface appears fuller and more youthful. While his nasolabial folds improved both directly and indirectly, the biggest change is in his overall expression — refreshed, natural, and drastically younger-looking. This case beautifully demonstrates how addressing the root cause of aging can achieve far more than simply chasing lines or folds.
