Hello~ Your beauty universe!

I am Dr. Shim Jung-hwan, the head director of Uber Plastic Surgery :)✨

Q: What is the difference between under-eye fat repositioning and under-eye fat removal?

​

Under-eye fat repositioning refers to a surgery where the tear trough ligament is released using the under-eye fat

to create a flat surface underneath.

​

If there is a lot of bulging under-eye fat and the tear trough ligament is not severe,

some people undergo surgery by only removing the fat

without touching the ligament.

​

However, in reality, there are not many cases where simple fat removal is sufficient.

​

Because under-eye fat repositioning structurally makes the under-eye area firmer and more stable,

in most cases, repositioning provides more satisfying results than removal.

​

💡When is under-eye fat repositioning needed?

Under-eye fat repositioning is effective in the following cases:

​

1. When the under-eye fat is bulging

2. When the area below the under-eye fat, the tear trough ligament area, is sunken

3. When two lines of shading (shadows) are visible below the aegyo-sal (under-eye roll)

​

In this case, if the tear trough ligament is released and the remaining fat is repositioned,

both the bulging and sunken areas are improved together,

making the under-eye area naturally flat.

📌Case 1

This is a case where the fat bulged below the aegyo-sal,

and the tear trough ligament area below it was sunken, showing two lines of shading.

​

For the bulging fat, we performed under-eye fat repositioning surgery

by releasing the tear trough ligament and repositioning it to make the under-eye flat.

​

Looking at the overall appearance, you can see that the under-eye area,

which used to look hollow and tired, has become flat.

​

📌Case 2

This is a type where the aegyo-sal is slightly small and the tear trough ligament area is severely sunken,

with an overall lack of fat volume.

​

To fill the sunken tear trough ligament area with under-eye fat

without making it look bumpy,

we performed a surgery to fill the under-eye area with small-particle thigh fat.

​

At week 1, before the fat was fully engrafted,

some swelling was visible,

​

but by weeks 2 to 3, the previously sunken area

became flat and gained volume, bringing dimension and vitality to the face.

​

📌Case 3

This is a case where the under-eye fat was bulging while the tear trough was simultaneously sunken.

Although the fat was slightly bulging overall,

​

without removing the fat, simply releasing the tear trough ligament and repositioning

the remaining fat was enough to achieve a sufficiently flat and natural result.

​

📌Case 4

This is a case where under-eye fat repositioning and under-eye fat removal were performed together.

​

Due to left-right asymmetry, the fat on one side was bulging more,

so a small amount of fat was removed on one side, and the rest was repositioned.

​

After the surgery, the under-eye shading was reduced from two lines to one,

making it look much cleaner.

​

If you are concerned about your under-eye area looking both bulging and sunken at the same time,

giving you a tired or hollow impression,

​

you can improve it into a flatter and more vibrant eye shape through under-eye fat repositioning.​

​

Since the necessary surgical method varies depending on individual conditions,

it is best to make a decision after an accurate diagnosis and consultation at the clinic.
