Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning and Lower Eyelid Fat Grafting, Explained by Dr. Kim Jun-hyun of Midline Plastic Surgery

Hello.

I am Kim Jun-hyun, the chief director of Midline Plastic Surgery.

In the last post, we looked at lower eyelid fat repositioning.

Lower eyelid fat repositioning aims for something different from eye or nose surgery, which create a dramatic change.

For people who meet after a long time, or for those seeing you for the first time,

they may not know the difference.

If the nose or eyes are made naturally,

people may not even realize that you had surgery. ^^.

Double eyelid surgery or augmentation rhinoplasty to raise the nose are done

to make someone look more beautiful.

On the other hand, lower eyelid fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty is done

to create a brighter impression.

When there is significant lower eyelid fat or a hollow under-eye area,

if dark circles are present, it can make you look tired and lifeless,

and further, it can even make a person's overall impression seem dark.

Before and after lower eyelid fat repositioning The patient above is someone who actually underwent lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery at Midline Plastic Surgery. The photo above is the before photo.

Lower eyelid fat repositioning is a procedure that uses the fat bulging under the eyes

to fill the tear trough and reposition it.

But what should be done when there is not enough of that filling material (fat)?

If fat grafting is added, a better effect can be achieved.

Like this!

After lower eyelid fat repositioning This is how it looks after lower eyelid fat repositioning.

By performing lower eyelid fat repositioning together with tear trough grafting,

we improved the bulging from protruding fat and the hollowed areas,

making the aegyo-sal more defined and improving the dark circles under the aegyo-sal as well.

Let’s look at a male case of lower eyelid fat repositioning.

Men do not necessarily need a lot of volume in the front cheek area.

The man above also underwent lower eyelid fat repositioning and fat grafting together. The photo above is before surgery.

Some may ask, volume for men?

Men can also have less developed front cheekbones,

1. when more volume is needed in the front cheek area, or

2. when the skin is thin and the muscle shows through, making dark circles look more severe, or

3. when pigmentation makes the area look hollow and dull,

fat grafting together with lower eyelid fat repositioning can also be helpful for men.

How did it change after lower eyelid fat repositioning and fat grafting? ▼

Shall we summarize today’s post?^^

If you undergo lower eyelid fat repositioning,

a person’s overall impression becomes brighter.

What cannot be fully resolved with lower eyelid fat repositioning alone can be supplemented with fat grafting.

Men also often need lower eyelid fat repositioning and fat grafting.

Thank you.
