Achieving a Youthful Look with Natural Lower Blepharoplasty (Including Love Band Enhancement) :D

1. Basic Information

Age: Female in her 50s

Under-eye condition: Moderate bulging

Skin condition: Slight skin sagging and laxity, dark circles

Primary concerns: Tired and aged appearance due to bulging under-eyes and sagging skin

2. Consultation Details

Bulging under-eye fat creates shadows that make dark circles more prominent, and when combined with skin sagging, it can result in an aged impression. This patient presented with moderate under-eye fat bulging and skin laxity, requiring not just simple fat removal, but fat repositioning combined with skin excision. Additionally, creating appropriate ‘love bands’ (aegyo-sal) can provide a more youthful and vibrant impression.

3. Solution and Surgical Plan

① Lower Blepharoplasty

Through lower blepharoplasty, under-eye fat is appropriately repositioned to flatten bulging areas. In cases of skin sagging, excess skin is excised as needed to create firm under-eyes. This improves dark circles and results in an overall clear and energetic impression.

② Skin Excision and Elasticity Improvement

For sagging under-eye skin, removing unnecessary skin can improve wrinkles and enhance elasticity.

③ Natural Love Band (Aegyo-sal) Formation

Rather than simply removing under-eye fat, maintaining appropriate volume while naturally forming love bands can create a more youthful effect. Properly formed love bands reduce a tired look and emphasize a soft, feminine image.

4. Expected Effects

• A brighter impression as the under-eye area becomes smooth and dark circles improve
• Youthful effect due to reduced skin sagging
• Vibrant facial expression through natural love band formation
• Transformation from an overall tired look to a lively appearance

5. Conclusion

: When under-eye fat is bulging and skin is sagging, simple fat removal alone is not enough; a customized solution is required. In this patient’s case, a more natural and youthful look was achieved through lower blepharoplasty and skin excision.

: If you are concerned about under-eye fat, it is important to consult on the appropriate procedure for your specific condition. Consider the right treatment for a more vibrant and healthy impression!

Frequently Asked Questions

In what cases is lower blepharoplasty necessary?

It is necessary when the under-eyes are puffy and the skin is saggy, making one look tired and older. It is especially effective when under-eye fat creates shadows, making dark circles prominent.

Can lower blepharoplasty also improve dark circles?

Yes, it can be improved. By redistributing under-eye fat through lower blepharoplasty to flatten the puffy areas, dark circles that appeared darker due to shadows can be improved, resulting in a brighter impression.

Does lower blepharoplasty also address skin sagging?

Yes, it can be resolved. If the under-eye skin is sagging, excising the unnecessary skin can improve wrinkles and enhance under-eye elasticity.

Can aegyo-sal (under-eye fat) surgery be performed with lower blepharoplasty?

Yes, they can be done together. Instead of simply removing under-eye fat, maintaining appropriate volume to create natural aegyo-sal can result in a younger and more vibrant impression.

What effects can be expected after lower blepharoplasty?

After the surgery, the under-eyes become smooth and dark circles are improved, creating a brighter impression. Additionally, reduced skin sagging can lead to a more youthful appearance and a lively facial expression.
