Hello!
We are 'Diva Plastic Surgery', where we understand the causes of aging and restore your youth.

Many people suffer from dark circles under their eyes or a generally dark facial impression due to aging skin around the eyes, leading to appearance complexes.
At our clinic, we resolve these concerns through lower blepharoplasty, creating bright and youthful eyes!

Our clinic's lower blepharoplasty not only tightens the skin but also the muscles, providing an under-eye lifting effect. By removing and repositioning under-eye fat, we can create 'aegyo-sal' (under-eye fat rolls) to give you an even younger appearance.

Furthermore, it's not just about resolving wrinkles and dark circles; it's also known for improving one's impression to be softer and clearer, which even led to an interview with the media outlet 'The Leader'.

If you'd like to find out if aging has started in your eyes, let's review the interview with our chief director and consider visiting our clinic!

Recently, interest in beauty has been increasing among middle-aged and older adults, not just the younger generation. With extended average lifespans, a healthy and youthful appearance has become a competitive advantage. As a result, there's a growing trend among middle-aged and older adults to seek definite anti-aging effects through medical methods like plastic surgery, in addition to clothing and hairstyles.

Among the plastic surgeries favored by middle-aged and older adults, lower blepharoplasty is a prime example. Lower blepharoplasty refers to the phenomenon where the skin and fat around the eyes sag due to aging, causing under-eye fat to protrude or severe wrinkles to form. The protruding under-eye fat creates dark circles, leading to hollows under the eyes that make one look older and even give a dark and grumpy impression, thus highlighting the need for improvement.

Lower blepharoplasty has the advantage of leaving no scars and minimal swelling, resulting in a fast recovery period, as the surgery is performed from inside the lower eyelid. Additionally, it allows for the simultaneous removal of fat and wrinkled skin, and the procedure is performed in a way that prevents the eyelid from turning inside out after surgery by checking the degree of laxity in the ligaments.

If skin and muscle sagging are severe, it's advisable to combine under-eye fat removal and skin excision with lateral canthoplasty, which firmly fixes the muscle or lateral canthal tendon to the periosteum on the outer side of the eye. This approach helps remove under-eye wrinkles and achieve firm under-eyes, contributing to a clearer and more defined eye shape.

However, for lower blepharoplasty, it's crucial to accurately assess the under-eye condition and apply a personalized surgical method. Satisfactory surgical results can only be achieved by comprehensively considering various factors such as the amount of under-eye fat, skin tissue thickness, bone structure, and eyeball position. It is wise to seek a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience and expertise, and to proceed with surgery after thorough consultation.

Director Kim Jong-myung of Diva Plastic Surgery, known as the brother of celebrity Kim Jong-kook, explained, ‘Lower blepharoplasty not only improves an aged appearance by removing and repositioning under-eye fat but also achieves a bright and youthful eye shape with excellent lifting effects by pulling up and fixing sagging under-eye skin and muscles.’

Meanwhile, Diva Plastic Surgery has appeared on various TV programs, showcasing extensive knowledge as a plastic surgeon, and has made a significant mark in anti-aging surgery through numerous broadcasts, including the SBS 'Star King' program's ‘Shocking Face: Old Age vs. Youth’ episode, attracting considerable attention.
