Under eye surgery

Improvement of protruding or
sunken under eyes
without concern of scarring

The dull and dark impression under the eyes brought
on by sagging or protruding areas under the eyes
is improved by a thorough cause analysis.
Additionally, surgery through an incision on the inner
conjunctiva under the eyes accelerates recovery and
helps ease concerns about scarring.

Customized surgery
for a variety of
conditions

We perform suited surgery in accordance with the
cause where there is too much fat under the eyes,
pulling out the sagging skin and filling in the sunken
area to keep the existing fat under the eyes,
improving the dull image and maintaining
a bright image.

Customized under-eye plastic surgery
based on the kind of dark circle

¹
Protruding under eye

It describes a
circumstance in which
the skin is light reddish,
the fat
under the eyes
is convex, and the
tear
trough forms underneath
it to
create a half-moon
-shaped border.
It can be
improved with sub-eye
fat repositioning surgery.
²
Sagging under-eye

When there is
inadequate fat beneath
the eyes, the region
between the pupil
and the bone under
the eyes appears
sunken and is blue
in color.
³
Sagging + Protruding

The procedure of pulling
the skin
beneath the eyes
is beneficial
because it
appears when the fat
under the eyes sags
toward the
cheekbones.
It can be improved
with
sub-eye fat repositioning
surgery.
⁴
Pigmented eye

Lack of elasticity
causes the skin to
congregate in a small
area,
stimulating the
cells and producing
pigmentation, usually
a dark maroon
color.
It can be improved with
dermatological
procedures such as
skin peeling and laser
treatment.
