[Diva Plastic Surgery] Sagging and Hollow Eyes Due to Aging… Improved with Upper Blepharoplasty, Lower Blepharoplasty, and Fat Grafting

Hello, this is Diva Plastic Surgery.

As time passes, natural aging can lead to

wrinkles or sagging under the eyes,

making some individuals appear older than their actual age.

For those who wish to address this promptly, we will explore solutions that can help.

However, some individuals may only be contemplating these issues

because they lack detailed information about solutions that can restore

their sagging and hollow eye lines to their youthful appearance.

At our clinic, we remove and reposition under-eye fat,

and lift, pull, and fix sagging skin and muscles

through lower blepharoplasty to create beautiful eye lines.

We also offer upper blepharoplasty, which provides satisfying results for those who experience severe forehead wrinkles and expression lines due to difficulty opening their eyes,

or those who suffer from obstructed vision due to sagging eyelids and eyelashes poking their eyes.

This procedure has garnered significant interest from many individuals.

Furthermore, we also perform hollow eye fat grafting, which involves transplanting fat into hollow eyelids to beautifully improve the sunken eye area.

This method is favored by those who wish to look younger. If you are looking to effectively address signs of aging that appear on your face over time,

please consider the solutions offered at our clinic.

The eyes are one of the most important facial features in determining a person's impression. Firm, taut eyes create a lively face and can project a youthful image. However, as the skin around the eyes, which determines facial youthfulness, ages due to loss of elasticity, it often makes one look older. Consequently, more people are seeking plastic surgery to address these concerns.

The skin around the eyes is particularly thin, making it prone to faster aging than other areas. While some may perceive this as a natural change if there is no significant discomfort, functional problems can arise that interfere with daily life. A common symptom is ‘ptosis’ due to sagging eyelids. Along with this, there is a growing trend of people considering anti-aging eye surgery due to changes in their appearance caused by under-eye wrinkles and sagging skin.

When eyelids sag due to loss of skin elasticity from aging, it can be corrected with upper blepharoplasty. Upper blepharoplasty involves assessing the degree of skin sagging, then excising the sagging skin, fat, muscle, and subcutaneous tissue through an incision. This procedure is particularly effective for those who experience severe forehead wrinkles and expression lines due to difficulty opening their eyes, or whose vision is obstructed by sagging eyelids and eyelashes poking their eyes. By correcting sagging eyelids, both aesthetic and functional aspects can be simultaneously improved.

Lower blepharoplasty is an effective surgical method when the skin and fat around the eyes sag, causing under-eye fat to protrude or increasing under-eye wrinkles. It involves repositioning or removing the sagging fat, then lifting, pulling, and fixing the sagging skin and muscles. It is one of the preferred surgical methods for those with severe under-eye wrinkles that create a shadowy appearance or severe dark circles that make them look tired. Lower blepharoplasty can improve dark circles by appropriately restoring volume under the eyes, leading to brighter and more youthful-looking eyes.

Hollow eye fat grafting is a method that uses fat from various areas such as the abdomen or buttocks to replenish sunken areas. Fat is meticulously grafted according to the degree of eye hollowness to achieve natural results, and since it uses the patient's own fat, it shows a relatively high engraftment rate. This can be considered for those who have a tired impression due to hollow eyes or who experience side effects from excessive fat removal during double eyelid surgery.

Regarding this, Dr. Kim Jong-myung (pictured), chief director of Diva Plastic Surgery at Gangnam Sinsa Station, advised, ‘The skin around the eyes is a sensitive area, so careful consideration is required when contemplating anti-aging eye surgeries such as upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, and hollow eye fat grafting. Since each patient's condition is different, it is crucial to find an experienced plastic surgeon who can propose suitable treatment methods and achieve highly satisfying results.’
