Front view before and after surgery

When you look in the mirror in the morning, the area under your eyes may look dull,

and you may often hear that you look tired.

Most people think, “It’s probably because I didn’t sleep enough,”

but in actual consultations, there are far more cases of

dark circles that have nothing to do with lack of sleep...

In particular, structural dark circles with both lower eyelid fat protrusion and hollowness

cannot be solved no matter how much you sleep, apply makeup,

or use eye cream!!!!

Today, through an actual patient case,

I’ll explain why lower eyelid fat repositioning is

the most fundamental solution for dark circles,

and what kind of changes it can bring^^

This patient was also a typical

case of structural dark circles.

She was a woman in her late 20s,

and she had often been told she looked tired,

and she was worried that in photos the shadows under her eyes always

looked very dark.

The fat under her eyes was bulging outward,

and just below that was a deep hollow,

so from the front there was always a shadow,

and from the side the under-eye line looked

broken...

So the surgical plan was set as follows.^^

Surgical plan

[Lower eyelid fat repositioning + aegyo-sal fat grafting]

Four months after surgery,

most of the swelling had gone down,

and the shadow line had almost disappeared and stabilized.

The feeling of darkness under the eyes was gone,

and as the aegyo-sal naturally came back,

do you see how a brighter and more youthful impression

was created overall?

From the front, the tired-looking impression became softer,

and from the side, the under-eye area was firmly supported,

creating a naturally fuller appearance.

As time passes, the result

settles in even more naturally,

which is a major advantage of lower eyelid fat repositioning.^^

Dark circles may seem like a color problem,

but in fact, they are very often a structural issue

that creates shadows.

Lower eyelid fat repositioning directly addresses the cause of dark circles

by reducing protruding fat,

filling hollows, and eliminating shadows.

At 21 Plastic Surgery,

we carefully analyze the amount of fat, skin thickness, muscle structure,

aegyo line, and the flow with the cheekbone area,

and aim to create an under-eye line that connects naturally

without looking excessive.

If you are concerned about under-eye shadows and a tired-looking impression,

we will guide you to the most suitable method through an accurate structural analysis.

We will help your eyes look brighter and more lively^^

If you have any questions, consultations are always available.

Restoring each patient’s natural beauty

is my biggest goal.

Thank you.
