do infraorbitals provide a facelift-like type of effect?

she says her cheekbones got more defined. but her review kind of reads like she got paid so i’m wondering if anyone here has their own similar anecdotes

her eyes look less bulgey to me. and this is with default implants not custom ones

Can infraorbitals achieve pfl increase through sclera decrease and a reduction in pull on the lower eyelid?

but her eyes still look massive, there's barely any difference in the way she looks

Dr. Eppley has said before that tear trough implants are not the same as Infraorbital Rim implants.

But yes, Infraorbitals can provide better looking definitions, because infraorbitals are custom-made 3d implants, which can even go to improve the cheekbones.

this girl says the same thing, she got slightly more defined cheekbones surprisingly. and she mentioned the negatives so i doubt this is a fake review

she got an off the shelf tear trough implant, so her results are the bare minimum for what a custom would provide, which is why i say she got pretty good results especially if it really did help her cheekbone definition

all i can find is him saying tear troughs don’t apply vertical augmentation which is only relevant for eyelid position

Can infraorbitals achieve pfl increase through sclera decrease and a reduction in pull on the lower eyelid?

lateral canthoplasty can give a bit more than 2mm of pfl i believe but for real pfl the only doctor I'm aware of that can do a pfl surgery is dr richard allen I've seen the surgery its crazy insane how much pfl he can give

anyone who says pfl isn't achievable through surgery is retarded

medial canthus can also be achieved through surgery as well but most doctors are too pussy to even dare touch it
