Lower Blepharoplasty: Address Under-Eye Aging and Look Younger!

If you have noticeably protruding fat under your eyes, please pay attention to today’s post!

This can occur as aging progresses and the fat pockets surrounding the under-eye fat weaken, causing the fat to protrude while the skin and muscles sag. ㅠㅠ

At DM Plastic Surgery Clinic, improvement to a brighter and more refreshed under-eye appearance is possible through a surgical method combining multiple procedures.

Unlike under-eye fat repositioning, which moves fat from protruding areas to hollow areas according to the amount of under-eye fat to create a firmer, smoother under-eye area, lower blepharoplasty removes under-eye fat and sagging under-eye skin to reduce under-eye wrinkles.

Although the two procedures are similar in some ways, the difference is that lower blepharoplasty requires excision of the under-eye skin.

If there is no under-eye sagging and only the under-eye fat is bulging or hollowed, we recommend under-eye fat repositioning. When the under-eye skin is significantly sagging and the fat has descended, we more strongly recommend lower blepharoplasty.

The eye area can produce a positive effect with even a subtle change, so consider improving your appearance to look younger through the procedure introduced today!

Let’s take a closer look at lower blepharoplasty, which can improve the appearance to look brighter and younger by removing sagging skin, fine wrinkles, and fat. ◠ ◠!

How is it improved?

If the condition is not severe, it can of course be corrected with a simple treatment. However, when the symptoms are severe and the under-eye fat protrudes excessively, you may look older than your peers and have an overall darker appearance. In such cases, improvement is possible through lower blepharoplasty at DM Plastic Surgery Clinic.

A Customized Surgical Method for Each Individual

This surgical method pulls and fixes the inner eyelid and tarsal plate to the outer canthal tendon, tightening the lower eyelid and helping prevent the eyelid from turning outward due to ectropion.

By assessing each person’s skin thickness, the depth of facial wrinkles, age group, and degree of skin sagging, we can apply a customized surgical method suited to each concern, achieving clear improvement and a satisfying result in eye surgery.

Improve Under-Eye Wrinkles, Fat, and Dark Circles All at Once!

It is important to proceed with surgery only after thoroughly discussing the most harmonious line for you and the appropriate surgical method with a medical professional specializing in eye surgery.

If you are worried that the youthful fullness under the eyes may disappear, the procedure preserves it through septal reinforcement. Improvement in dark circles can create a brighter, firmer, more youthful-looking eye area, while removing sagging skin and muscles can help extend the duration of under-eye fat repositioning results.

The procedure is performed using the expertise of specialized medical professionals, securing the orbital septum together to minimize the possibility of eyelid sagging and uneven fat contours.

What is the lower blepharoplasty method at DM?

The procedure is performed by making an incision just below the eyelashes, removing or repositioning unnecessary fat, tightly pulling the sagging muscles, securing them firmly to the periosteum, and closing the incision with sutures. At DM Plastic Surgery Clinic, we provide a brighter and more refreshed under-eye appearance through a surgical method combining multiple procedures!

Through a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience, we assess the degree of under-eye sagging, establish an individualized plan, and perform the surgery directly.

In addition, same-day discharge is possible without a separate hospital stay, and the sutures are removed 5–7 days after surgery. We are doing our best to help patients return to their daily lives quickly through a care program designed to minimize swelling and bruising. 🥰
