Would Fat Grafting with Under-Eye Fat Repositioning Be Better? Facial Types That Need Fat Grafting! (Explained by a Plastic Surgery Specialist)

Would fat grafting with under-eye fat repositioning be better?

Facial Types That Need Fat Grafting! (Explained by a Plastic Surgery Specialist)

� Hello, this is Obje Plastic Surgery.

� As time passes and aging progresses, various changes occur in the face.

� The skin sags, volume decreases...

� In particular, the under-eye area has thin skin, so aging appears more quickly there and the changes are more noticeable. As elasticity decreases over time, fat can bulge out under the eyes.

� Bulging fat under the eyes makes the under-eye area look uneven and dark. This can make you look tired and older. There is a procedure prepared for those who are worried about the under-eye area.

� That procedure is under-eye fat repositioning. Under-eye fat repositioning refers to a surgery that redistributes fat that has bulged out due to weakened orbital septum elasticity caused by aging to surrounding areas that lack volume.

� Most patients who come in for under-eye fat repositioning think they need to solve the problem of bulging fat under the eyes and visit Obje.

�

� At Obje, we often recommend under-eye fat grafting at the same time. Why recommend fat grafting when the patient came to address bulging under-eye fat?

� Today, we would like to explain the facial types for which fat grafting shines when performed together rather than under-eye fat repositioning alone. We will also explain Obje Plastic Surgery's special fat grafting technique, single fat cell grafting, so if you are worried about bulging under-eye fat or dark under-eyes, do not miss this!

What Facial Features Make Fat Grafting Recommended When Doing Under-Eye Fat Repositioning?

� Fat grafting refers to a procedure in which fat is collected from a relatively fatty area such as the abdomen or thighs and then transplanted to areas that lack volume. It can be performed on various areas, but it is most often done on the face where volume is lacking.

� At Obje Plastic Surgery, we also perform facial fat grafting, and we often recommend it to patients who are already consulting about under-eye fat repositioning. In particular, we recommend fat grafting for patients with the following features:

�

�

1. Those with a flat, sunken front cheekbone area

2. Those who have both bulging under-eyes and a sunken tear trough

� In order, let me explain in detail why it is beneficial to combine fat grafting with under-eye fat repositioning.

1. Those with a flat, sunken front cheekbone area

� Among the patients who come in for under-eye fat repositioning consultations, many have a sunken front cheekbone area. A face shape with a sunken, flat front cheekbone and protruding side cheekbones is a classic East Asian facial type.

�

� However, patients with sunken front cheekbones often think only that their cheekbones are large because the side cheekbones protrude. In many cases, they do not realize that their front cheekbones are sunken.

� If the front cheekbone area is flat and sunken, the overall facial volume is lacking. In such cases, if the bulging under-eye fat is removed, the face may look even flatter and more hollow.

�

� Through under-eye fat repositioning, the bulging fat under the eyes can be redistributed, and volume can be restored to the front cheekbone area, creating a much more lively and youthful effect.

� Therefore, if your front cheekbone area is sunken, we recommend considering under-eye fat grafting together.

2. Those who have both bulging under-eyes and a sunken tear trough

� Patients with less facial fat often have bulging fat under the eyes but a sunken tear trough. As elasticity decreases with aging, the fat pocket sags, causing the under-eye area to bulge, while the tear trough appears sunken because it has little fat.

� For these patients as well, combining under-eye fat grafting can produce dramatic results.

�

� Under-eye fat repositioning can address the bulging fat, and fat grafting can fill in the sunken-looking areas, improving the uneven contours of the under-eye region.

� However, for those whose tear trough appears sunken due to a lack of fat, not ordinary fat grafting but Obje's special single fat cell grafting is required.

What Is Obje's Special Fat Grafting, Single Fat Cell Grafting?

� Some people worry that if fat is transplanted under the eyes, the area may become overly bulging or look uneven. This is related to the size of the fat cell particles.

� In general, the fat grafting performed at Obje is micro fat grafting. In micro fat grafting, fat harvested with a syringe from areas such as the abdomen or thighs is purified using a centrifuge, and only the fat component is then transplanted.

� The purified fat cell particles are extremely small, only visible under a microscope. In general, when grafting to areas such as the forehead, cheekbones, or chin, you do not need to worry about looking uneven, but the under-eye area is different.

� The skin under the eyes is much thinner than the skin on the forehead, cheekbones, or chin. Because of that, if the particles are even slightly large, they may show through the skin and look uneven.

� However, that is also why the under-eye area is a region that may need fat grafting. Because the skin under the eyes is thin, muscles or blood vessels can show through and make the area look like dark circles.

�

� At Obje Plastic Surgery, we recognized the need for a fat grafting procedure to improve sunken-looking under-eyes and under-eyes that appear to have dark circles. We conducted research on how to break fat cell particles down more finely so they could be transplanted under the eyes, and we developed a special technique that separates fat particles one by one through special enzyme processing. The result of this effort to improve under-eyes that look sunken due to a lack of fat and dark circles is single fat cell grafting.

� Single fat cell grafting is Obje's special fat grafting technique that separates fat particles that were originally clustered like grapes, one by one, and transplants smaller fat cell particles.

� Through single fat cell grafting, fat cells can be transplanted thinly and evenly under the eyes, helping brighten dark under-eyes without worrying about an uneven result.

�

� Today, we introduced the types of patients for whom combining under-eye fat repositioning and fat grafting is beneficial.

� Even under-eye fat repositioning alone can make the area look cleaner by organizing the bulging fat under the eyes. However, depending on the patient's facial type, combining it with under-eye fat grafting may produce better results.

� Obje Plastic Surgery offers both micro fat grafting and single fat cell grafting. We recommend micro fat grafting for patients who lack volume in the front cheekbone area, and single fat cell grafting for those whose under-eye area looks sunken because of insufficient fat.

�

� Because we recommend the surgical method based on which areas of the face need volume, each patient can receive a customized fat grafting procedure.

� If you would like to know whether you need fat grafting, or if you have further questions about single fat cell grafting, please visit Obje Plastic Surgery for a consultation.

� We will answer each and every question in detail without missing anything.

� This has been Obje Plastic Surgery. Thank you.
