Hello.

This is Aunique Plastic Surgery.

Many people commonly think that sagging under-eye fat is caused by reduced skin elasticity due to aging,

but under-eye fat sagging also appears frequently in younger people.

That is why more and more young people have recently been visiting clinics to receive under-eye fat repositioning.

When the area under the eyes protrudes outward and the skin becomes loose,

it is often accompanied by dark circles, which can create a tired and hollow-looking impression.

In such cases, it is not easily covered even with makeup, which can make you look older.

Under-eye fat

does not usually cause any particular pain or discomfort,

but because it can negatively affect the first impression, which is the most important part of a person’s image, people often visit a clinic to improve it through under-eye fat repositioning surgery.

In particular, Aunique’s under-eye fat repositioning uses a surgical method based on a different concept from conventional under-eye fat repositioning.

Conventional surgery excessively removes fat, which can cause hollowness under the eyes, or forcefully moves the fat, leading to prolonged swelling and damage to the normal structure.

But at Aunique,

we focus on the thin, transparent, multilayered membrane that surrounds the fat,

‘SAC,’

and divide the large clumps of fat into multiple smaller pieces.

If you break up a large clump of soil in a flowerpot into smaller pieces,

the smaller soil particles fill the empty spaces evenly, completely occupying the area, much like that principle.

When the fat is finely separated and evenly distributed under the eyes,

the effects of under-eye fat repositioning can be more complete and last longer.

In particular, Aunique uses the highest-grade, minimally damaging laser, Encore UltraPulse,

and by preserving the retaining ligaments and minimizing bleeding, there is almost no bruising or swelling immediately after surgery,

to the point that surgery today can mean going to work tomorrow.

Encore Ultra Pulse is the most expensive CO2 laser equipment introduced in Korea,

and with a single laser irradiation, it can separate the fat in the target area, preventing bleeding and swelling from occurring.

Because under-eye fat repositioning often recurs,

it is better to choose a clinic that performs surgery in a way that can help prevent recurrence.

Therefore, rather than focusing on cost or distance,

you should choose based on the skill of a board-certified plastic surgeon.

As mentioned earlier, the surgical method used at Aunique separates the fat itself all at once with a high-output laser,

so the results can last for a long time.

At Aunique, with abundant experience and know-how, we perform the surgery so that it blends well with the surrounding area, including the under-eye region,

allowing for a natural result that does not look awkward even after surgery.

In addition, the bulging under-eye fat and tear trough often hide the aegyo-sal under-eye fullness, making it hard to see.

When performing under-eye fat repositioning surgery, by preserving the aegyo-sal muscle and making it appear naturally prominent, it is also possible to restore the previously invisible aegyo-sal.

If you are considering under-eye fat repositioning to create a youthful impression, rather than considering cost alone, you should receive customized treatment that takes into account your individual skin type and current condition.

If you are concerned about a neat, clean impression, if you are worried about looking older, please consider consulting with Aunique, where expertise is abundant.
