Hello, this is AINIQUE Plastic Surgery.

For those whose under-eye area looks dark, in other words, those whose overall facial impression seems dull because of dark circles,

or those whose under-eye area has become hollow or burdened due to natural aging,

or those who have undergone lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery but later found that the post-surgery appearance became uneven and unsatisfactory,

and others with under-eye concerns,

you have likely looked into lower eyelid fat repositioning at least once and thought about it.

Especially if lower eyelid fat repositioning has failed for various reasons, such as post-surgical scarring,

swelling caused by excessive fat transfer,

a burdensome surgical outcome, and more,

you may find yourself worrying even more due to a vague psychological fear of revision surgery,

concerns about whether it can succeed,

and financial burden, among other reasons.

If the first surgery was successful, it would be nothing but happy news, but from the medical team’s perspective, when a patient chooses revision surgery for many reasons,

we also feel deeply sorry for the psychological burden they carry while consulting with them.

That is why we must be even more careful when performing revision surgery.

It is burdensome to undergo surgery again, but for those suffering from current side effects and cosmetic issues,

the lower eyelid fat repositioning offered by AINIQUE Plastic Surgery is

a surgical method based on a completely different concept from what patients have previously known.

First, beneath each person’s lower eyelid there are multiple thin, transparent layers of membrane surrounding the fat,

called the 'SAC.'

By opening this SAC and dividing the large clumped fat into several pieces,

the effect is similar to breaking up a large clump of soil in a flowerpot so that the smaller particles fill the empty space without gaps,

allowing for a more complete and longer-lasting result.

These results are made possible with Dr. Yoo Joong-ha, who operates the Youth & Young Under-Eye Surgery Center together with AINIQUE Plastic Surgery.

In the early 1990s in the United States, Dr. Yoo Joong-ha learned laser surgery from DR. S. BAKER and DR. L. DAVID, who were authorities in laser surgery.

Later, in 1993, he opened Korea’s first laser plastic surgery clinic, and he is widely recognized, as many prominent figures from politics, business, and entertainment have received lower eyelid fat surgery from him.

So then, what are the advantages of AINIQUE’s under-eye surgery?

AINIQUE’s biggest competitive advantage is the fast recovery period.

The bruising and swelling are minimal even right after surgery, to the point that you can undergo surgery today and go to work tomorrow.

In addition, by preserving the retaining ligaments and minimizing bleeding, it greatly reduces patients’ worries about surgery.

Because it is a major procedure with the strength of fast recovery after surgery,

not only college students, but also office workers and even middle-aged patients who feel burdened by major surgery

prefer this surgical method.

What is the biggest reason bruising and swelling can be minimized immediately after the procedure?

It is because we use the Encore UltraPulse, a premium laser with minimal thermal damage.

The Encore UltraPulse laser from Lumenis in the United States, known as a luxury instrument among laser devices,

is the most expensive CO2 laser equipment introduced in Korea.

It is safe to say that, in terms of performance as well as price, it is truly top-tier.

Because of its high laser output, fat in the target area can be separated with just one laser irradiation.

What happens if the same area is manipulated multiple times?

Because the skin around the eyes is very delicate, repeated manipulation will naturally cause bleeding and swelling,

which can later lead to side effects as well.

For this reason, the medical team’s accurate judgment during laser application is very important.

For safer and more effective surgery,

AINIQUE Plastic Surgery uses not only top-tier equipment, but also medical staff who use that equipment with years of know-how and technical skill,

working their utmost to provide patients with the best results.

As a result of that effort, the clinic has received trademark filing recognition from the Korean Intellectual Property Office,

and its know-how has been acknowledged through textbook publications and academic papers,

as well as receiving a commendation from the Minister of Health and Welfare.

Even now, it performs more than 5,000 eye surgeries a year.

Not only lower eyelid fat repositioning, but all eye surgeries must be performed according to each individual’s eye condition.

The reason is that skin characteristics, the condition of the muscles around the eyes, eye shape,

and the overall shape of the face all differ from person to person.

To find the exact solution that suits your eyes, AINIQUE provides in-depth preoperative consultations, a safe operating room environment,

and post-surgery aftercare, all handled responsibly and safely.

Now, say goodbye to the stress caused by dark circles, aging, and failed surgery!

Solve it with AINIQUE under-eye surgery and regain your confidence through a brighter impression and clearer eyes!

AINIQUE’s doors are wide open.

This has been AINIQUE, as if you were beautiful from the very beginning.

Thank you. ​
