This is going to be a slightly detailed piece of information for infraorbital softmaxes and hardmaxes whilst also keeping it somewhat brief
You can start with softmaxxing via topical volumizers like Volufiline, which aims to stimulate adipocyte differentiation, basically you're fat cell storage, in the localized area, though the results are often subtle and temporary. For a more in depth non surgical approach, hydration and thickening the skin via tretinoin to mask the underlying bone deficiency is another pption. However, topical solutions can’t fix a skeletal lack of forward projection.
To actually fix the structural deficit, you have to look into more invasive surgical interventions. Fat grafting is a common middle ground, where autologous fat is harvested and injected to create a biological cushion over the infraorbital rim, though the retention rate can be unpredictable.
Looking at permanent fixes, custom infraorbital malar implants or infraorbital rim implants are the gold standard. These are designed to provide the necessary lateral and forward projection that the maxilla lacks, effectively filling in the hollow and improving the vector of the eye. From a biological standpoint, these surgeries address the root cause, skeletal recession, rather than just masking it with soft tissue, thugh they carry significenttly higher risks like nerve damage, displacement, or infection.
Majority of people have infraorbital recession, which is unfortunate since it being vital in improving the eye area.
