Fat grafting makes eyelids full of vitality



 As we age, the skin loses its elasticity. As a result, the eyelids become sunken, giving a sluggish impression, or making us look older than our actual age. Especially the upper eyelid is an active part where is easy to be noticed by others, so if our eyelids are sunken, we will look tired or look older than our actual age.

Sunken Eyelid is a phenomenon that many people suffer from regardless of gender. Most sunken eyelids are caused by the fact that the muscles that support the fat around the eyes sag with age, causing the fat to move downward.




With age, sunken eyelids is a phenomenon that can happen to anyone, but many people feel pressured because they look lifeless and haggard because of it.

The already formed sunken eyelids sometimes get worse over time. Even if you lose a little weight, it will look more severely sunken or deformed very sensitively according to changes in your body, so it needs improvement. However, there are many causes of sunken eyelids. Most people who do double eyelid surgery or fill fat on sunken eyelids without finding out the cause are not satisfied with the results and regret it. Therefore, the most important thing is to find out the exact cause.




The first cause of sunken eyelids is blepharoptosis. Usually, blepharoptosis is a symptom that needs improvement, because the eyes cannot be opened normally due to insufficient strength of the levator palpebrae superioris, so it makes people look drowsy or stuffy. Usually, the sunken eyelids caused by blepharoptosis is treated by methods such as blepharoplasty, eyebrow lift, or forehead lift to improve the strength of opening the eyes. If people who have symptoms of sunken eyelids due to blepharoptosis inject fillers or perform fat grafts, the action of opening eyes may become unnatural, so it is recommended to consult an experienced medical team for accurate diagnosis.


On the other hand, there are also cases of congenital less orbital fat and drooping eyelids due to aging. If the eyelids are sunken due to less orbital fat or aging, you can improve it by injecting fillers or fat to increase the volume. However, although the injection of fillers is simple and convenient, the effect will disappear after 6 to 12 months. Therefore, repeated injections are required, which is troublesome. Therefore, many people have done fat grafting. Injecting fat into the sunken eyelid can have a semi-permanent effect, and since the fat used is autologous fat, there is no need to worry about foreign body sensation or side effects.



Generally speaking, in order to graft fat to the eyelids, fat cells are first sucked from unwanted areas such as the thighs, abdomen, or sides while avoiding damage to them, and the impurities are filtered out by centrifugation. There are some things that must be checked at this time. It is to check whether special equipment capable of liposuction and centrifugation is used. This is because as the body undergoes the process of extracting body fat and then injecting it back into the sunken area, it is important to minimize exposure to the air. This can significantly reduce the probability of infection of the harvested fat and increase the implantation rate of the transplanted fat.


Only by collecting pure fat in this way, and using a special needle to transfer the right amount of fat to the upper eyelid, can it increase the volume of the sunken eyelid and create vivid eyes.




Normally, fat grafting takes about 30 minutes, and there is no need to worry about bruising or scars, because it uses special needles. In addition, since autologous fat is used, it is possible to expect a young and lively image change without worrying about rejection.


However, this is a difficult treatment site close to the eyeball, and if proper fat is not grafted onto the thin skin, it may lead to undesirable results, such as uneven eyelids. Therefore, taking into account each person's different appearance and overall facial balance, through skilled treatment, the effect can be maintained for a long time and satisfactory results can be obtained. To this end, it is important to first obtain adequate consultation from a medical team with a wealth of professional knowledge. If the hospital can provide correct and systematic solutions according to the condition of the eyelids, the effect can be maximized.

In such cases, rib cartilage (autologous or donated) may be used. In principle, if there are no major nasal issue...
