Dr. Adam Scheiner on BLOOM and Daytime: The Truth About Malar Bags, Festoons—and the Breakthrough Treatment That Finally Works

In his recent appearances on BLOOM TV and Daytime, world-renowned laser cosmetic surgeon Dr.  Scheiner marked his 25th year in practice by addressing a frustrating and often misunderstood issue in facial aging: malar bags and festoons.

Malar bags and festoons are two names for the same frustrating condition—puffy mounds that form on the upper cheeks and cast shadows that make people look tired, sick, or older than they feel. Despite the cosmetic and emotional toll, many patients are told there’s no effective treatment.

Dr. Scheiner explained how standard treatments often fall short:

• Fillers can make malar bags worse by adding unnecessary volume.

• Conventional lower eyelid surgery typically misses the problem area, leaving festoons or malar bags untouched.

• Topical products and skin care aren’t enough, because the issue is structural, not superficial.

If you’ve been told there’s nothing you can do about malar bags or festoons, it’s time to explore Dr. Scheiner’s RESET® for Festoons procedure—a groundbreaking procedure that directly targets and treats this stubborn area.

In his interviews, Dr. Scheiner described:

• What causes malar bags and festoons, and why so many patients are misdiagnosed.

• How RESET® for Festoons works by breaking down diseased tissue and tightening the skin for long-lasting, natural results.

• Why lasers outperform scalpels—with less bruising, less pain, and faster recoveryDr. Scheiner’s talking ….

“There’s nothing quite like helping someone transform how they look on the outside to reflect how they feel on the inside,” Dr. Scheiner shared. “So many people come to me frustrated after failed treatments. With RESET®, we finally have an answer that works for both festoons and malar bags.”

Patients frequently report dramatic but natural-looking improvements. After treatment, they feel younger, look brighter, and often gain a new sense of confidence—especially on video calls, in photos, or at work.

The trend is growing, particularly among Baby Boomers. “Many of my patients are still active professionally and socially,” Dr. Scheiner said. “They’re healthy and vibrant, but their faces tell a different story. Treating malar bags and festoons helps restore their energy on the outside to match how they feel on the inside”
