​

Can under-eye fat grafting also eliminate wrinkles?​

​

​

Fat grafting alone may provide a slight improvement for the tear trough, but the fundamental cause, the tear trough ligament, remains unresolved.

Therefore, we recommend definitively releasing the tear trough through under-eye fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty.

Depending on the patient's condition, additional fat grafting may be necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can wrinkles and tear troughs be eliminated with only under-eye fat grafting?

No, fat grafting alone cannot provide a complete solution. While there may be subtle improvements, it does not address the fundamental cause, which is the tear trough ligament. For definite improvement, you should consider combining it with other surgeries.

What surgery is needed to definitively resolve tear troughs?

We recommend under-eye fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty. These surgeries effectively release the tear trough ligament, addressing the root cause and resulting in a smooth under-eye appearance.

Is additional fat grafting necessary after under-eye fat repositioning?

Yes, it may be necessary depending on the patient's condition. After releasing the tear trough with under-eye fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty, additional fat grafting may be performed in conjunction, tailored to the degree of hollowness and the individual's under-eye condition.

What is the fundamental cause of tear troughs?

The tear trough ligament is the main cause. If this firm ligament is not addressed and only fat is grafted, wrinkles and troughs will not improve properly, so releasing the ligament is an essential step.
