Overview

Under Eye fat repositioning is the best procedure for you if you experience protruding fat or an uneven distribution of fat below the eyes, which causes dark circles and a tired appearance. This procedure improves the bulgy under eyes. As the name suggests, the doctor will not remove any fat from the under eye area but will reposition the existing fat to give the under eye area a much smoother and even appearance.

Some cases of under eye fat repositioning will not require the doctor to create any incisions in the undereye area. However, even if the doctor requires the need of stitches in the undereye area, they are made below the skin. Therefore, under eye fat repositioning does not lead to scarring after the procedure.

Under Eye Fat Repositioning Surgery Checklist:


· Do you always look tired? · Do you experience dark circles? · Do you want to cover your undereyes with makeup, but is it not possible because of the bulgy fat and skin?
