Depending on age, the categories of care that people pay more attention to and worry about also change.

As we get older, we tend to focus more on anti-aging and maintaining a youthful look.

As time passes and we experience various signs of aging,

we also seem to become more aware of the importance of care.

In particular, one area that people in their 50s and 60s pay attention to is the eye area.

As we age, collagen and elastin in our skin gradually decrease.

As a result, elasticity declines and the skin sags and loosens.

The skin under the eyes also loses elasticity and fat accumulates prominently, creating a bumpy under-eye area,

and in severe cases, the skin stretches because of the fat and may even look like a lump.

Puffy under-eyes create an older-looking image,

and can make a person look dull and tired, so for those who are active in social life,

it can create a less favorable impression, making early improvement necessary.

In particular, as the average age rises and more middle-aged people continue social activities,

aesthetic care has become more important. If you want to improve puffy under-eyes,

lower eyelid surgery can be recommended as a way to address it.

Lower eyelid surgery removes the protruding fat under the eyes, removes excess skin,

and performs orbicularis oculi muscle repositioning.

As a result, the under-eye fat is handled properly and the skin removal is appropriately adjusted,

allowing for a smoother under-eye skin effect.

Bulging under-eyes can form a dark shadow underneath and may be seen as dark circles under the eyes,

which further emphasizes a tired impression.

Through lower eyelid surgery, fat removal helps eliminate the dark shadow, allowing you to expect a brighter facial appearance.

For lower eyelid surgery, including concerns about scars and a faster recovery period,

it should be carried out after fully understanding the patient’s under-eye condition and through one-on-one customized design and a tailored plan.

If too much skin is removed during lower eyelid surgery, it can cause side effects such as the eye turning outward,

and conversely, if too little skin is removed, wrinkle reduction may be insufficient,

resulting in less satisfactory results.

Therefore, how much skin can be removed appropriately is an important factor, and the amount to be removed is determined

depending on the patient’s skin condition, the condition of the wrinkles, and other factors.

Above all, the judgment and experience of the medical staff are very important.

At a hospital that is skilled in lower eyelid surgery, treatment is carried out by specialist medical staff with extensive experience and know-how in under-eye surgery,

from careful consultation to preliminary examination and delicate post-operative care.

To help reduce patients’ worries about a quick recovery period and scars,

a variety of recovery care systems, including swelling laser treatment, are applied.
