One of the main signs that add some years to your age is dark circles under the eye. Of course, there might many more causes of dark circles under the eyes.

However, it is a thick amount of fat that makes eyes look shaded and tired. Those who wish to improve dark circles might want to undergo a simple cosmetic procedure under-eye fat repositioning surgery.

Fat repositioning is a cosmetic procedure through which accumulated fat in one area is redistributed into the hollow areas. This method works best to improve not only dark circles, but it also helps improve deep, hollow furrows of the eyes.

This cosmetic procedure does not help with all types of dark circles. Depending on the amount of fat, the doctor may recommend combining eye fat removal surgery with fat repositioning.

One must visit the clinic for a check-up, and the treatment period is only one day. Potential swelling might last for 1~2 weeks.

After 2~3 weeks, the swelling subsides, and the eyes return to their previous natural position. It is important to take all the prescribed medications, which will help prevent possible inflammation.

We also encourage the patients to apply eye drops 3~4 times a day. There is no need to remove stitches, and it does not leave any marks or scars because the surgeon makes an incision inside the conjunctiva.
