When the Eyelids Feel Heavy: Eyelid Fat Removal

#Fat removal #Jamsil Saenae Station plastic surgery #Ahn Sung-min

My eyelids feel heavy!!

The orbital fat surrounding the eyeball is essential for cushioning the eye, but if there is too much fat, the eyelids can look bulging and feel swollen or dull.

It can also sag under the weight of the eyelids and appear like ptosis.

Therefore, in some cases, fat removal may be necessary.

There are many reasons why the upper eyelids may feel heavy and uncomfortable.

Many patients think the cause of heavy eyelids is fat and believe that simple removal is enough.

However, not all fat can be removed.

In some cases, there is indeed a lot of eyelid fat, but if the eyelid skin is thick or sagging is severe due to ptosis, the eyelids may still feel heavy and uncomfortable.

It is important to identify the exact reason the upper eyelids feel heavy before deciding on the approach.

Is fat removal really necessary?

The reason for choosing a method that preserves your own fat through fat repositioning or minimal removal rather than removing more fat is that it can later cause a hollow-eyed side effect. Once removed, fat is difficult to regenerate.

Just as skin can become loose or lose elasticity after weight loss, sufficient fat needs to be maintained to provide elasticity and volume.

Fat can create a youthful appearance. However, if there is too much fat, removal is necessary.

During double eyelid surgery, if there is excessive fat, it can be difficult to define the line and may end up looking like sausage eyes.

Recovery process after incisional double eyelid surgery with fat removal

Fat removal can be performed through an incision during double eyelid surgery.

Surgery time and aftercare

The surgery takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes for both sides combined

and is performed under local anesthesia

After surgery, it is best to rest and avoid overexertion for 1 to 2 days.

For about 2 weeks after surgery,

avoid irritating the eyes, such as rubbing them hard,

and from immediately after surgery, the strength to open the eyes increases,

which also improves forehead wrinkles.

Major swelling may take at least one month, and minor swelling

may take at least 2 to 3 months to subside.

It is better to allow about 6 months for the surgical traces to completely disappear

and for the double eyelids to become natural.
