The aegyo sal located under the eyes is an element that makes the face look softer when smiling. In fact, many people feel that whether someone has aegyo sal or not can make a fairly big difference in the overall impression of the face and how old it looks.

There are several procedures for creating or improving aegyo sal, but recently, the method using micro-fat grafting has been gaining attention.

'20s Aegyo Sal Micro-Fat Grafting Surgery Method'

This is a woman in her 20s who visited for an overall consultation about the under-eye area.

Because she is still young, there is no visible sagging of the under-eye skin, but she came in to correct flat aegyo sal along with gradually darkening under-eye dark circles.

For under-eye dark circles, under-eye fat repositioning surgery would be needed, and in the case of aegyo sal, it is much more natural and lasts longer to create it with micro-fat grafting rather than injecting filler.

In the case of aegyo sal filler, problems can arise after a certain maintenance period, such as it sinking downward or being absorbed. In addition, because of its transparent nature, filler can show through the thin skin under the eyes, and it can also make the under-eye area look bluish or darker.

For aegyo sal fat grafting, very small and even fat particles are needed, so it is necessary to use a properly sized cannula together with a micro-fat filter.

Molding work for delicate design after aegyo sal fat grafting.

At Garnet Plastic Surgery, unlike general aegyo sal fat grafting, a specially made molding device is used to precisely refine the shape of the aegyo sal.

This molding device plays a role in finely designing how the fat settles immediately after micro-fat grafting and helping maintain a consistent, smooth line for the aegyo sal.

'Living aegyo sal that moves with facial expressions'

Aegyo sal delicately formed with this molding device has the advantage of moving naturally according to facial expressions.

The muscle that creates aegyo sal is the pretarsal orbicularis oculi muscle, which is part of the orbicularis oculi muscle, and natural aegyo sal can be created when this muscle and the grafted fat are in harmony.

If micro-fat is grafted properly, it can create aegyo sal that does not feel artificially fixed in place, but instead moves naturally whenever you smile, talk, or blink,

as if it were your own original aegyo sal.

The right photo shows a photo while smiling or grinning, with the aegyo sal becoming slightly larger and giving a brighter, more radiant smile.

Aegyo sal fat grafting is not simply about adding volume under the eyes.

Based on anatomical knowledge, fat must be grafted in a position that can harmonize with the pretarsal orbicularis oculi muscle, and the grafted fat must be delicately and precisely refined using a special molding device.
