What is Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning?

When excessive fat accumulates under the eyes,
it makes you look older and gives a tired impression.
This condition can occur as the membrane
supporting the under-eye fat loosens with age,
but it also occurs in young people regardless of age.
The under-eye area may bulge outward,
and dark circles may appear, manifesting differently for each individual.

In such cases, improvement can be achieved by
repositioning the fat evenly to brighten the dull under-eye area.

*Orbital Septum? A membrane that wraps around and supports the shape of under-eye fat tissue

The repositioned fat is placed
beneath the periosteum, the strongest membrane, and the stretched septum is tightly secured,
making the chance of recurrence extremely low.

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning Surgical Method

Before Surgery

Under-eye fat bulging outward with stretched skin

STEP01

Incision of the inner eyelid conjunctiva

STEP02

To prevent under-eye sagging, relocate and reposition the fat

I had lower eyelid surgery. Will it come undone if I get Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning?

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning and lateral canthoplasty + lower eyelid surgery both approach through the under-eye septum,
so the surgical area is the same.
Therefore, if you get Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning after lower eyelid surgery,
there is a possibility that the lower eyelid surgery may come undone.

If you are planning surgeries with a gap between them,
it is recommended to perform Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning first.

are procedures that make aging-looking eyes appear soft and bright.

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning and lateral canthoplasty + lower eyelid surgery can be
performed simultaneously to achieve youthful eye results.

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning Q&A

Q1. Is Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning a dark circles removal surgery?

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning is one of the surgical methods to improve dark circles. Dark circles mainly occur in people with thin skin, and can be caused by poor blood circulation or rhinitis, among other reasons. Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning surgery smoothens the fat beneath the skin, helping to improve dark circles.
Q2. Are Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning and Under-eye Fat Removal different surgeries?

Both surgeries ultimately brighten and improve the dull under-eye area. However, the surgical methods are different. As the name suggests, Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning repositions the under-eye fat to make it even, while Under-eye Fat Removal removes the under-eye fat. If you are concerned about under-eye fat or dark circles, it is best to consult with a specialist to determine which method is more suitable for you.
Q3. Will it not recur after Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning surgery?

If not performed properly, there is a possibility of recurrence, so the initial surgery must be done well. The fat that acts as a cushion under the eyes often gets pushed toward the tear trough, causing it to bulge. At SISUN Plastic Surgery, the displaced fat is repositioned beneath the periosteum, the strongest membrane, so there is virtually no chance of recurrence even over time.
