Natural Recovery One Week After Upper Eyelid Fat Grafting

Today, I’d like to introduce a case of upper eyelid fat grafting for a woman in her early 30s. 0.9 cc was injected on each side, and this is her condition one week after the procedure.

She usually had hollowness above the eyes, which made her look tired. In particular, the hollowing was very noticeable from the side.

For about 3 days after the procedure, swelling and slight bruising may occur, but in this case, by the one-week mark the swelling had already mostly subsided and was settling into a natural shape. She had a thin double-eyelid line, and the line was maintained beautifully without becoming either smaller or larger.

At Grace, we use freshly purified live fat rather than frozen fat, and we inject it into the deep orbital fat layer using our self-developed micro-cannula. This method helps the fat settle stably within the skin without leaving an uneven surface. As a result, it can maintain a soft and smooth upper eyelid line over time, without an unnatural bulge. Upper eyelid fat grafting is not just a procedure for filling volume; it is also a treatment that can change the overall impression. In particular, after the 30s, fat above the eyes gradually decreases, making hollowness more likely. When performed during this period, recovery is typically faster and graft survival tends to be more stable. Grace does not perform every case the same way. We adjust the injection depth and amount with a 1:1 customized design, considering eyelid thickness, muscle movement, and the graft survival range of the fat. As a result, the eyes can look noticeably more lively without appearing unnatural. Once the fat settles, it is not easily absorbed, which means the natural-looking result can be maintained over time. Just from the one-week result, you can already expect an even more stable and softened impression one month later.

Grace Plastic Surgery does not talk about results based on just one or two people. We have thousands of cases across a wide age range, from early 20s to 70s, and we have proven our results through real patients’ before-and-after photos. We believe that results matter more than flashy advertising, and through our accumulated cases, we continue to show Grace’s true expertise. Upper eyelid fat grafting is not simply a procedure to fill hollowness. It is a treatment that carefully analyzes the structure around the eyes, movement, and the thickness of the fat layer, then completes the three-dimensional look and balance of the impression with a 1:1 customized design. That is why Grace’s results look especially natural and become more stable over time.
