Worried About Under-Eye Bulges and Sagging? How to Create Bright Eyes with Lower Blepharoplasty
Under-eye bulges and skin sagging caused by aging around the eyes are major factors that make your impression look dark. Lower blepharoplasty, proposed by Dr. Han Kyu-nam of 345 Plastic Surgery with 19 years of experience, is a method that allows you to expect naturally youthful eyes through fat repositioning and skin elasticity improvement.
The Main Culprits of Eye Aging: Causes of Under-Eye Bulges and Skin Sagging
Of all body parts, aging appears first and most distinctly on the face. Among facial features, the eye area is particularly sensitive to changes because the skin is exceptionally thin and highly mobile. As time passes, not only does the under-eye skin sag, but internal fat also protrudes, making it easy for dark circles and "under-eye bulges" to develop, which can make your overall impression look dark and dull.
Because these changes can make you look older than your actual age or give off a tired impression, many middle-aged individuals consider improvements through anti-aging eye surgeries such as lower blepharoplasty.
What is Lower Blepharoplasty? Simultaneous Improvement from Dark Circles to Wrinkles
Lower blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that smoothly refines the eye area by appropriately excising sagging under-eye skin and repositioning or removing protruding fat. Rather than simply smoothing out wrinkles, you can also expect positive changes in improving dark circles by erasing the shadows under the eyes.
At 345 Plastic Surgery, we help transform bulging under-eyes into a bright, flat, and vibrant eye shape.
3 Key Points of 345 Plastic Surgery's Lower Blepharoplasty
For a successful lower blepharoplasty, a detailed approach considering the anatomical structure is necessary, rather than simply pulling the skin.
- POINT 01. Three-Dimensional Fat Correction: Bulging under-eye fat is appropriately removed, and the Y-shaped sunken areas under the eyes are filled to create a smooth line without any unevenness.
- POINT 02. Elasticity Reinforcement through Lateral Canthal Fixation: The lateral canthus, the muscle under the eye, is firmly fixed to prevent eyelid eversion (ectropion) and strengthen elasticity.
- POINT 03. Micro-Incision and Precise Suturing: Excisions are made close to the lower eyelash line and meticulously sutured to reduce concerns about scarring.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the effects of lower blepharoplasty?
Yes, it has the effect of simultaneously improving dark circles and wrinkles. It helps to tidy up sagging under-eye skin and protruding fat, erasing shadows under the eyes and making them flat, transforming them into lively and bright, youthful eyes.
Are there any side effects like the eye turning inside out after surgery?
No, ectropion (the eye turning inside out) can be prevented through lateral canthal fixation. By firmly fixing the lateral canthus, which is the muscle under the eye, elasticity is strengthened, thus reducing concerns about side effects and allowing for stable results.
Will aegyo-sal (under-eye fat pads) disappear after surgery?
No, aegyo-sal can be preserved as much as possible to maintain a natural impression. To prevent the loss of aegyo-sal, which is an important factor in determining one's impression, the surgery is performed by precisely excising only the sagging skin while preserving the muscle.
I'm worried about significant surgical scars.
No, you don't need to worry too much about scars. Since a micro-incision is made as close as possible to the lower lash line and meticulously and precisely sutured, scars are hardly noticeable after recovery.
Who performs the surgery?
Dr. Han Gyu-nam, the representative director and a key lifting doctor with 19 years of experience, personally performs the surgery. Based on over 3,000 rich surgical experiences, he meticulously conducts the entire process from consultation to surgery and progress checks in a 1:1 customized manner.
