As time passes, looking older is, in a way, a natural thing.
However, as looking younger than your actual age has emerged as a key element of beauty,
the importance of anti-aging is being emphasized.
Accordingly, as more and more people worry about eyelid hollowness or sunken upper eyelids caused by aging,
more people are looking for various ways to address it.
There are many different methods, but many people wonder which one is the most effective.
Today, we will look at Eyelid Volume Up, a method that improves sunken eyelids using fat around the eyebrows to add volume.

First, let’s look at why sunken upper eyelids occur.
There are many reasons why sunken upper eyelids happen,
but the 대표적인 reason is aging.
As you get older, subcutaneous fat decreases, and as subcutaneous fat decreases,
sunken upper eyelids can occur.
In addition, excessive dieting, genetic factors,
and bad habits such as rubbing the eyes can also cause it.
If eyelid hollowness occurs,
it can create outward appearance problems such as looking older than you are and looking tired,
and it can also reduce the strength used to open the eyes, making the eyes feel tired and potentially causing dry eye syndrome and ptosis.

You may have been wondering how to improve eyelid hollowness,
which can cause these issues.
For those people, we would like to introduce Eyelid Volume Up at 4/31.

Eyelid Volume Up is another name for orbital fat repositioning in the eyelid,
and it is a method that can correct sunken eyes.
You may be curious about how Eyelid Volume Up works.
It is a method that pulls down the fat hidden behind the eyebrows,
repositions it to the sunken eyelid area to improve it, and adds volume.

You may also be wondering how fat can still remain even when the eyelids are sunken.
Even when the eyelids become sunken due to aging or ptosis,
there is still hidden fat behind the eyebrows.
You can confirm this by pinching the eyebrow with two fingers.

In the past, eyelid fat grafting was often chosen to improve sunken upper eyelids.
Eyelid fat grafting involved taking fat from the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks, separating it,
and injecting it into the sunken eyelid.
In this case, the survival rate was low, and more than 50% could sink within 1 to 2 months,
and in some cases, there was a high possibility of adhesion causing unevenness.
In addition, additional fat grafting may be needed, adhesion can make the area uneven,
ptosis correction would need to be done separately, and in some cases there was a possibility of it getting worse.

Eyelid Volume Up removes the cause of the sunken eyes
and uses the fat tissue around the orbit to reposition it,
so there is no need to worry about how long the results will last due to survival rate.
It can be improved with a single procedure without additional treatment,
and the surface tends to be smooth without unevenness.
In addition, ptosis can also be improved through eye shape correction.

Because the degree of eyelid hollowness differs from patient to patient,
a customized approach is necessary.
At 4/31, different methods are used depending on the degree of sunkenness.
First, if the degree of hollowness is not severe,
improvement is provided through ptosis correction and orbital fat repositioning.
If the hollowness is severe,
ptosis correction, orbital fat repositioning, fat grafting, and fat injection are needed,
and depending on the condition, volume is restored through micro fat grafting and dermal fat grafting.

To improve sunken upper eyelids,
it is important to consider not only the aesthetic aspect but also the functional aspect.
In addition, to accurately understand each patient’s condition,
our clinic uses imaging to assess the current state and structure
and plans the appropriate approach for each case.

At 4/31, Director Oh Won-seok, a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in eye surgery,
considers both aesthetic and functional aspects,
so you can expect satisfying results.
