Hello, this is Inique.

The skin around the eyes is especially

thin and sensitive among all skin areas,

so even a little stimulation or

rubbing can easily cause damage or

make wrinkles form more easily.

Because of this,

many middle-aged people worry about under-eye wrinkles,

sagging under-eye fat, and dark circles,

which can make them look older and more tired.

If under-eye wrinkles appear

and dark circles develop due to

pigmentation,

it is difficult to cover them with

heavy makeup,

and makeup can also settle

into the wrinkles,

so a more noticeable improvement method is needed.

The under-eye wrinkle lifting performed by

Inique Plastic Surgery, a clinic specializing in eye surgery,

is a lifting procedure that can remove under-eye wrinkles

naturally and effectively.

At Inique, customized surgery is performed

according to the symptoms,

making it possible to achieve

excellent results.

A commonly concerning area,

dark circles, can largely be divided into

skin-related and fat-related causes.

In the case of skin-related issues, the skin itself may look dark due to pigmentation,

or the skin may be so thin that enlarged blood vessels behind it become visible.

In such cases, aside from under-eye wrinkle lifting,

it can be addressed with

brightening toning lasers

or lasers that

constrict blood vessels.

Second, when fat is the issue,

it is something people encounter more easily.

As we age, there are areas where the fat under the eyes

protrudes outward,

and areas below it that become hollow.

When that happens, the under-eye area

looks shadowed and dark,

creating dark circles.

In such cases,

rather than under-eye wrinkle lifting,

performing under-eye fat repositioning can lead to

clearer improvement.

Why do dark circles appear?

Here is what Inique, a clinic specializing in eye surgery, explains!

It is highly related to

the structure of the eyes.

Looking at the structure of our eyes,

orbital fat is located beneath the eyeball,

and it is surrounded by a septum.

And beneath that, there is a retaining ligament

that connects the orbital bone

and the skin.

As we age, the septum that

surrounds the fat becomes weaker,

and the fat begins to push forward.

The retaining ligament below remains

well maintained without sagging, but the fat pushing outward

from the weakened upper septum makes that area bulge,

and the lower area develops a tear trough because of the retaining ligament,

which leads to dark circles.

So to solve this,

under-eye fat repositioning involves cutting the retaining ligament

and spreading the fat to reposition it downward.

At this time, the surgery is performed

by approaching through the inner conjunctiva of the eyelid,

rather than making an incision in the outer skin,

so it has the advantage of not leaving a visible scar.

In addition to under-eye fat repositioning,

there are also many cases where unnecessary fat

needs to be removed.

At this time, removing too much fat

can make the under-eye area look even more sunken

and eliminate the effect of under-eye wrinkle lifting,

which can actually make a person look older,

so it is safer to proceed

with a medical team that has extensive experience.

Inique, a clinic specializing in eye surgery,

separates the fat into three areas

rather than treating it as a single structure

to prevent this problem,

and performs precise fat removal.

In this way, through under-eye fat repositioning,

the protruding areas can be reduced

and the hollow tear troughs can be filled,

making the under-eye area

softer and brighter.

Some people feel that surgery is burdensome

and ask about correction with fillers.

Filling sunken areas with fillers can improve the area to some extent,

but because it is difficult to address the root cause,

a repeat procedure may be needed over time,

or it may be difficult to achieve the clear improvement

that the patient would be satisfied with.

Today, we looked at

under-eye wrinkle lifting and

under-eye fat repositioning,

and also discussed ways to improve them.

Above all, since each patient has a different eye condition,

a customized plan is necessary,

so we recommend choosing a hospital

that has not only more specialized knowledge

but also strong technical expertise.

Then, until now,

this has been Inique Plastic Surgery,

as if you were beautiful from the very beginning.

Thank you.
