If You Want a New Way to Fix Sunken Eyes

  With the recent development of mass media and social media, model-like bodies have become a desirable ideal,

and the fitness and dieting trend continues.

There are parts of the body that look beautiful because they have volume, and parts that look beautiful because they do not.

This applies not only to the body, but also to the face.

For the body, volume is preferred in areas such as the chest and hips,

while less volume is preferred in the legs, abdomen, arms, and shoulders.

For the face, volume in the nose, forehead, and eyes is considered beautiful, and a slim jawline is preferred.

 

When dieting, it may seem ideal to be able to lose fat in only a specific area,

but because weight is lost overall, volume also disappears from unwanted areas.

Among these, the area around the eyes is especially prone to fat loss because the skin is very thin.

 If the eyes become sunken, it can make you look tired and older than you actually are, and can cause double eyelids to form as two or three folds. In addition to these external changes,

it may also functionally increase the possibility of dry eyes, eye strain, and ptosis.

 

So, why does sunken eyes happen,

and what are the ways to fix sunken eyes?

As mentioned earlier, sunken eyes can occur because there is not enough subcutaneous fat due to excessive dieting.

In addition, aging can reduce the subcutaneous fat layer, making sunken eyes more likely.

It can also occur due to lifestyle habits such as rubbing the eyes, or due to hereditary factors.

  In the past, many people chose under-eye filler or eye fat grafting as a way to fix sunken eyes.

Under-eye filler has the advantage of being simple to perform, but its duration is short,

and adhesion can occur, causing the surface to become uneven.

There was also the inconvenience that, if a revision surgery was needed later, it had to be performed after dissolving or removing the filler.

In the case of eye fat grafting, fat is collected from the abdomen, thighs, or hips and then separated

before being injected into the sunken eyelid area.

Because the survival rate is low, more than 50% may settle within 1 to 2 months,

and depending on the case, the risk of adhesion is high and additional fat grafting may be needed.

Also, in some cases, ptosis symptoms may become more severe, and ptosis correction may be required separately.

  For those who have been wondering which sunken-eye treatment method to choose for these reasons,

today I would like to introduce eyelid volume up.

Eyelid volume up is a surgical technique that pulls down the fat hidden behind the eyebrows

and evenly and stably repositions it in the sunken eyelid.

Even if the eyelids are sunken, when you pinch the eyebrow with two fingers,

you can tell that fat is hidden behind the eyebrow.

This method pulls down the orbital fat around the eyes and repositions it in the sunken eyelid area.

 

You may be wondering why eyelid volume up is recommended as a solution for sunken eyes.

Eyelid volume up removes the cause of sunken eyes,

and because it makes the most of the fat tissue around the orbit and repositions it,

there are no issues with sinking related to fat survival rates.

In addition, improvement is possible with just one surgery, without additional procedures,

and the surface tends to remain smooth without unevenness. Ptosis can also be improved through eye correction.

 

At our clinic, we use different surgical methods depending on the degree of eye hollowness.

First, when the degree of hollowness is not severe,

we restore volume to the eyelid area and create a refreshed eye shape with only ptosis correction and surgery to advance and reposition orbital fat.

When the degree of hollowness is severe,

ptosis correction, orbital fat repositioning, fat grafting, and fat injection are needed,

and depending on the condition, we provide volume using micro fat grafting and dermal fat grafting.

  For those who are considering how to fix sunken eyes, I think a trustworthy medical team is also very important.

At our clinic, plastic surgeon Director Oh Won-seok, who is dedicated to eye surgery,

handles everything from consultation to surgery and recovery care,

so you can expect the results you want.
