345 Plastic Surgery's Know-How to Enhance the Effects and Longevity of Under-Eye Fat Repositioning
Learn about under-eye fat repositioning (lower blepharoplasty), which improves a tired appearance caused by under-eye bulging or sunken areas. We introduce 345 Plastic Surgery's differentiated know-how that goes beyond simple fat removal by combining orbital septum strengthening and tear trough correction to lower the possibility of recurrence and create smooth, vibrant eyes.

Under-Eye Bulging and Hollowness: Why Do They Make Your Impression Look Dark?
If the under-eye area bulges out or appears deeply sunken, it can easily give off a much more tired and aged impression than your actual age. This occurs because the orbital septum supporting the under-eye fat weakens, causing the fat to protrude, or because the tear trough deepens, casting a shadow.

In such cases, evenly repositioning the fat through under-eye fat surgery (under-eye fat repositioning) can smooth out the under-eye line, providing an improvement effect that makes your impression look much brighter and healthier.
345 Plastic Surgery's Differentiated Under-Eye Fat Repositioning: Core Know-How to Prevent Recurrence
Many patients often worry, "Won't the fat protrude again over time after under-eye fat repositioning?" 345 Plastic Surgery does not simply relocate the fat; we simultaneously perform three core procedures to maximize the longevity of the results.

- Orbital Septum Strengthening: We firmly tighten the membrane surrounding the fat and secure it to prevent the fat from pushing out again.
- Fat Volume Optimization: Excess fat is appropriately reduced and accurately repositioned to the necessary areas.
- Tear Trough Correction: We delicately release the deeply indented tear trough ligaments to create a smooth line from the under-eye to the front cheekbones.

Precise and Safe Surgical Process
The under-eye area has thin skin and many microvessels, making it essential to be operated on by experienced medical professionals with a high level of anatomical understanding. 345 Plastic Surgery's under-eye fat repositioning proceeds in the following systematic steps.

- Precise Diagnosis: Before surgery, we closely analyze the amount of fat, skin elasticity, and muscle condition.
- Conjunctival Incision: We approach through the conjunctiva inside the eye to reduce worries about visible scarring.
- Fat Repositioning and Reduction: Unnecessary fat is trimmed and moved to sunken areas to create a flat surface.
- Septum Fixation: The repositioned fat and orbital septum are firmly secured to help the effects last longer.

Medical System Prioritizing Safety
Patient safety is just as important as successful surgical results. 345 Plastic Surgery has established an environment where you can undergo surgery with peace of mind.
- In-House Anesthesiologist: We maintain a safe state of anesthesia through real-time monitoring during surgery.
- 1:1 Responsible Surgery: The attending physician takes full charge from consultation to surgery and progress observation, with no ghost surgeries.
- University Hospital-Level System: We operate with precision equipment and a systematic infection control system.
- Attending Physician Doctor Call Service: We respond promptly to any questions that may arise during the postoperative recovery process.

If you are concerned about severe dark circles or bumpy under-eyes, we recommend getting a consultation to find the optimal correction method tailored to your eye condition.





Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be scars after lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery?
No, there will be no visible scars on the outside. Since the surgery is performed by incising the conjunctiva inside the eye, no scars occur on the outer surface of the skin, reducing concerns about scarring.
Will the under-eye fat not protrude again over time after the surgery?
The possibility of recurrence can be lowered. At Samsao Plastic Surgery, we don't just reposition the fat; we also perform a septum reinforcement process that firmly tightens and fixes the septum surrounding the fat, helping the effect last longer.
Can deeply sunken tear troughs also be improved at the same time?
Yes, they can be improved simultaneously. During the surgery, the deeply sunken tear trough ligaments are meticulously released to smoothly correct the line extending from under the eye to the front cheekbones.
Do I not have to worry about ghost surgery?
Yes, you can rest assured. We operate a responsible surgical system where the primary surgeon is in charge of everything from consultation to surgery and post-operative follow-up, eliminating concerns about ghost surgery.
Is anesthesia safely administered during surgery?
Yes, it is administered safely. An anesthesiologist is always present in the hospital, and the patient's anesthesia state is safely maintained and managed through real-time monitoring during the surgery.
