Does Under Eye Fat Repositioning Really Work?
Yes. Under Eye Fat Repositioning can effectively improve under-eye bags and create a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
Unlike procedures that simply remove fat, under eye fat repositioning carefully redistributes the protruding fat to fill hollow areas beneath the eyes. This helps reduce the appearance of eye bags and tear troughs while creating a more balanced under-eye contour.
The procedure is particularly effective for people with prominent under-eye bags caused by fat protrusion. However, if dark circles are mainly caused by pigmentation or very loose skin, additional treatments may be recommended to achieve the best results.
What Should I Do Before Under Eye Fat Repositioning Surgery?
To ensure a safe procedure and promote a smooth recovery, it is important to follow the pre-operative instructions below.
✔ Inform Your Surgeon About Any Medications or Supplements
If you are taking medications that may affect blood clotting, such as aspirin or warfarin, or supplements including omega-3, vitamin E, or ginkgo biloba, please consult your surgeon before surgery. Your medical team will advise you on whether you should temporarily stop taking them.
✔ Avoid Alcohol and Smoking
Alcohol and smoking can delay wound healing and increase the risk of swelling and inflammation. It is recommended to avoid both for a period before and after your surgery, as advised by your surgeon.
✔ Inform Us About Any Eye Conditions
Please let your surgeon know if you have dry eyes, conjunctivitis, other eye conditions, or a history of recent eye surgery, as these factors may affect your treatment plan.
✔ Do Not Wear Contact Lenses
Please do not wear contact lenses on the day of surgery. We recommend bringing a pair of glasses instead.
✔ Avoid Eye Makeup and Eyelash Extensions
On the day of surgery, please remove all eye makeup, contact lenses, eyelash extensions, and false eyelashes before arriving at the clinic.
✔ Wear Comfortable Clothing
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that is easy to put on and take off, as this will make your return home after surgery more comfortable.
✔ We Recommend Having Someone Accompany You Home
After surgery, you may experience temporary blurred vision, discomfort, or swelling. Whenever possible, we recommend arranging for a family member or friend to accompany you home.
What Age Should I Get Under Eye Fat Repositioning?
There is no specific age. The best time depends on your under-eye condition rather than your age.
Many patients choose under eye fat repositioning in their 30s to 50s, when eye bags and tear troughs become more noticeable due to aging. However, younger patients in their 20s may also be good candidates if they have hereditary under-eye bags or prominent fat bulging.
During your consultation, your surgeon will evaluate factors such as fat protrusion, skin elasticity, and overall facial anatomy to determine whether under eye fat repositioning is the most suitable treatment for you.
What Should I Do After Under Eye Fat Repositioning Surgery?
To promote a smooth recovery and achieve the best possible results, please follow the post-operative care instructions below.
✔ Sleep with Your Head Elevated
For about one week after surgery, keep your head elevated with an extra pillow while sleeping. This can help reduce swelling during the recovery period.
✔ Avoid Rubbing or Pressing Your Eyes
Do not rub, press, or apply excessive pressure to the treated area, as this may interfere with the healing process.
✔ Avoid Alcohol and Smoking
Alcohol and smoking can delay wound healing and increase the risk of inflammation. It is recommended to avoid both for at least two weeks after surgery.
✔ Avoid Strenuous Exercise and Heat Exposure
Avoid vigorous exercise, saunas, hot baths, swimming, and other activities that may increase swelling or the risk of bleeding for approximately two weeks.
✔ Delay Wearing Contact Lenses
Do not wear contact lenses until your surgeon advises that it is safe to do so. Wearing glasses is recommended during the initial recovery period.
✔ Take Your Medications as Prescribed
Please take all prescribed medications, including antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications, exactly as instructed by your surgeon.
✔ Swelling and Bruising Are a Normal Part of Recovery
Swelling and bruising are common after surgery and vary from person to person. Most swelling gradually improves within 1–2 weeks, while the final results continue to refine over the following months.
✔ Contact the Clinic If You Experience Unusual Symptoms
If you experience severe pain, persistent bleeding, pus, excessive swelling, fever, or changes in vision, please contact the clinic immediately for further evaluation.
