Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning

Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning is a procedure that repositions protruding under-eye fat through the inner conjunctiva to the hollow Tear Trough area and strengthens the septum to secure the fat. Because there is no skin incision, there is no visible external scar, making it suitable for patients with both under-eye fat protrusion and a hollow Tear Trough.

Improve age-related sagging for brighter, more youthful-looking eyes Are you concerned about eyes that sag with age? Urban’s eye procedures for middle-aged patients carefully consider the degree and prognosis of eye aging, skin laxity and wrinkles, fat volume, and the amount of skin to be removed to create more youthful-looking eyes.

Recommended for the following

· Those whose protruding under-eye fat makes them look tired · Those without severe under-eye wrinkles but whose Tear Trough appears hollow due to fat protrusion · Those who want to improve the under-eye area without a skin incision scar

Urban Lower Eyelid Fat Repositioning: 3 Points

Point 1. Customized surgery based on the cause

A customized procedure is performed according to the cause of excessive under-eye fat.

Point 2. Smooth bulging under-eye areas and fill hollows

Bulging under-eye fat is improved and hollow areas are filled for more youthful-looking eyes.

Point 3. Prevention of recurrence and long-lasting results

The under-eye fat is secured to prevent recurrence and help maintain long-lasting results.

Correct protruding under-eye bulges for brighter, clearer, and more youthful-looking eyes. Dull, bulging under-eye areas are improved for a younger and more vibrant appearance. However, if there is little protruding fat and surgery is performed solely because the under-eye area appears dark, the results may not be satisfactory. It is important to accurately assess the current condition and predict the expected effect before proceeding.

Surgical Method

This procedure is effective when under-eye wrinkles are not severe, but fat causes a bulging appearance and makes the Tear Trough look hollow. As the procedure is performed through the inner conjunctiva, there is no visible external scar. After repositioning the fat, the septum is strengthened and the fat is secured to prevent recurrence.

Before surgery

Bulging under-eye area and deeply hollow Tear Trough

STEP 1. Conjunctival incision and removal of ligament adhesions

The inner conjunctiva is precisely incised, and ligament adhesions in the hollow Tear Trough area are removed.

STEP 2. Fat repositioning

Protruding fat is moved (repositioned) to the hollow area of the Tear Trough.

STEP 3. Septum strengthening and fat fixation

After fat repositioning, the septum is strengthened and the fat is secured to prevent recurrence.

After surgery
