Actual RealSelf Patient Comment: I’m trying to decide what to do first. Are there more risks or chance of error involved with either one?

Dr. Persky’s Reply: I recommend treating your cheeks first as this also helps with your tear trough. After treating your cheeks, you may not need treatment of your tear troughs. Tear trough injections are more likely to result in bruising and have greater risk of complications. Most importantly, choose your injecting physician very carefully. Good luck and be well.
