Hello~

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

The skin around the eyes is exceptionally thin compared to other areas, making it the first place where aging appears!

As time passes, many people experience a loss of elasticity around the eyes,

causing the fat pockets under the eyes to protrude and bulge.

​

Under-eye fat is corrected by checking the degree of skin sagging, protrusion, and the presence of tear troughs and aegyo-sal (under-eye bands),

and is then treated through under-eye fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty.

​

However, you may have seen posts claiming that under-eye fat repositioning relapsed or that the surgical effects seemed short-lived.

​

Today, let's find out whether under-eye fat repositioning actually relapses.

​

Does under-eye fat repositioning relapse after surgery?

Under-eye fat repositioning is a surgery that deals with orbital fat.

Once orbital fat is removed, it does not regenerate.

If it seems to have relapsed after surgery, it is likely because some fat was left behind,

or the structures supporting the fat have weakened,

causing the fat to appear bulging again.

In such cases, revision surgery can be considered.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does fat reappear after lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery?

No, the orbital fat removed during surgery does not regenerate. Lower eyelid fat repositioning is a surgery that deals with orbital fat, and since fat cells that have been removed do not grow back, fundamental regeneration does not occur.

Why do my under-eyes become puffy again after surgery?

This is because some fat may have remained after the surgery, or the supporting structures for the fat have weakened. While the orbital fat itself does not regenerate, if the supporting strength decreases over time, the remaining fat can push out and appear puffy again.

What should I do if it looks like the fat has reappeared after lower eyelid fat repositioning?

Yes, in such cases, revision surgery can be considered. After accurately assessing the amount of remaining fat and the degree of weakening of the supporting structures with medical staff, it can be corrected again through lower eyelid surgery or lower blepharoplasty revision surgery appropriate for the condition.

How is the method for lower eyelid fat surgery decided?

It is determined by the degree of skin sagging and the degree of protrusion of the under-eye fat. In addition, the appropriate method, such as lower eyelid fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty, is selected by comprehensively checking the individual's eye area condition, including the depth of the tear trough and the presence of aegyo-sal (under-eye fat rolls).
