Hello~

💎your beauty universe! This is Weavers Plastic Surgery :)💎

As we age, the under-eye area can become bulging, protruding in a shape similar to aegyo-sal.

Because under-eye fat and aegyo-sal are located close to each other, people often confuse the two.

For this reason, many people think that undergoing under-eye fat repositioning will make their aegyo-sal disappear.

Today, let's find out whether under-eye fat and aegyo-sal are the same thing or different.

​

Are under-eye fat and aegyo-sal the same thing?

Under-eye fat refers to the bulging, semi-circular area on the lower eyelid.

Usually, it is observed in the lower eye area when looking straight ahead with an expressionless face.

It is called orbital fat and is a part of the fat tissue surrounding the eyeball.

Aegyo-sal refers to the horizontally bulging area along the edge of the eye, close to the eyelashes of the lower eyelid.

Usually, it becomes more visible and bulges out right under the eye when you make a smiling expression.

This part is a portion of the eyelid muscle called the orbicularis oculi muscle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are under-eye fat and aegyo-sal the same thing?

No, these two tissues are completely different. Under-eye fat is part of the orbital fat surrounding the eyeball, while aegyo-sal is part of the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is a muscle of the eyelid, so their composition and location are different.

When is under-eye fat most visible?

It is most visible when looking straight ahead with a neutral expression. It typically appears as a round, semicircular bulge in the lower eyelid area.

What are the characteristics of aegyo-sal?

Aegyo-sal becomes more prominent and visible when smiling, appearing as a bulge directly under the eye. It is a muscle tissue that protrudes horizontally along the eye, close to the eyelashes of the lower eyelid.

Does under-eye fat repositioning eliminate aegyo-sal?

No, under-eye fat and aegyo-sal are different tissues, so under-eye fat repositioning does not eliminate aegyo-sal. Under-eye fat is fatty tissue, and aegyo-sal is muscle tissue.
