Is it possible to remove under-eye fat permanently?
Surgery| Editor Nick| Posting update : 2021.09.28
Lower blepharoplasty, also known as lower eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the lower eyelids.
However, is this a permanently effective procedure to correct the under-eye area? Is there any possibility that under eyelids get puffy even after the surgery?
Even if one underwent lower eyelid surgery to remove fat and puffiness, fat and puffiness appear again as time goes by.
The reason is that the aging process continues, and the eyes are one of the organs in our body that age faster.
Therefore, it might take another revision surgery depending on under-eye puffiness and amount of the fat.
Regardless of whether it is your first surgery or revision surgery, we strongly recommend that you discuss the procedure carefully with a board-certified plastic surgeon.
