Under Eye Rejuvenation in Gangnam Seoul Korea | 1mm Plastic Surgery

What Is Under Eye Rejuvenation?

Under eye rejuvenation refers to surgical procedures that improve age-related changes affecting the lower eyelid and under-eye area.

Common goals include:

• Reducing eye bags
• Improving tear troughs
• Smoothing under-eye contours
• Restoring volume loss
• Improving dark shadows
• Tightening loose skin
• Creating a refreshed appearance

The under-eye area is often one of the first facial regions to show visible signs of aging.

Common Under Eye Aging Concerns

Eye Bags

As supporting tissues weaken with age, fat beneath the eyes may protrude forward.

This can create:

• Puffy under-eyes
• Tired appearance
• Facial heaviness
• Shadow formation

Lower blepharoplasty is one of the most effective treatments for this concern.

Tear Troughs

The tear trough is the hollow area between the lower eyelid and upper cheek.

Deep tear troughs may cause:

• Dark circles
• Hollow appearance
• Fatigue-looking eyes
• Premature aging

Volume restoration and fat repositioning are commonly used to improve this area.

Loose Lower Eyelid Skin

Aging gradually reduces skin elasticity.

This may result in:

• Fine wrinkles
• Crepey skin
• Sagging lower eyelids
• Skin redundancy

Skin tightening and lower blepharoplasty may help address these concerns.

Hollow Under-Eyes

Volume loss beneath the eyes may create:

• Sunken appearance
• Dark shadows
• Tired facial expression
• Skeletonized eye contours

Volume restoration is often an important part of comprehensive rejuvenation.

Procedures Included in Under Eye Rejuvenation

Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower blepharoplasty improves:

• Eye bags
• Excess lower eyelid skin
• Under-eye puffiness
• Contour irregularities

Modern techniques focus on preserving natural anatomy while improving under-eye contours.

Under-Eye Fat Repositioning

Rather than removing fat completely, surgeons may reposition existing fat to fill hollow areas.

Benefits include:

• Smoother transition from eyelid to cheek
• Reduced tear trough appearance
• More youthful contour
• Natural results

Fat repositioning has become one of the most important advancements in lower eyelid rejuvenation.

Fat Grafting

Fat grafting may be recommended for patients with:

• Hollow under-eyes
• Volume loss
• Deep tear troughs
• Sunken appearance

The procedure helps restore youthful fullness while maintaining natural contours.

Skin Tightening

Selected patients may benefit from additional skin tightening to improve:

• Fine wrinkles
• Crepey skin
• Lower eyelid laxity

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a candidate if you have:

• Eye bags
• Puffy lower eyelids
• Tear troughs
• Dark shadows
• Under-eye wrinkles
• Hollow eyes
• Tired-looking eyes
• Early signs of facial aging

A detailed consultation helps determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

Under Eye Rejuvenation for Younger Patients

Not all under-eye rejuvenation patients are older adults.

Patients in their 20s and 30s may seek treatment for:

• Genetic eye bags
• Tear trough deformities
• Hereditary puffiness
• Facial imbalance

In these cases, the goal is improvement of anatomy rather than age reversal.
