Sagging wrinkles and bulging fat gather under the eyes as the years pass. Lower eyelid wrinkle surgery removes the loosened fat and skin, brightening the under eye area and returning a young, resilient look to your eyes.
With age, the fat and skin beneath the eyes loosen and begin to bulge. The under eye wrinkles deepen, and your face starts to look tired and older than it should. Lower blepharoplasty, also called lower eyelid wrinkle surgery, removes the loosened fat to make the area under your eyes bright and smooth again, correcting your gaze into one that looks noticeably younger.
Before surgery, Dr. Lee plans and designs the procedure together with you during the consultation.
Sagging skin is removed, and through an incision in the conjunctiva the bulging fat is removed and repositioned.
If the tear trough is deeply hollowed, fat repositioning or fat grafting is performed to fill it.
The surgery is completed, leaving a naturally bright and smooth under eye area.
Dr. Lee Haksoo personally takes responsibility for everything from your first consultation and a thorough patient analysis to the surgery itself, all within a safety focused medical system.
We never boast about case counts. As an eye specialty clinic built on a quarter century of experience, we promise natural results and high satisfaction.

Eye makeup and contact lenses are fine from two weeks after surgery. Avoid baths, saunas, exercise, and swimming pools for three weeks, and avoid alcohol and smoking for one month. Apply cold compresses for the first four days to ease the swelling.
It is worth considering if any of these apply to you. The fat under your eyes sags and bulges, giving your face a sullen, unflattering look. Under eye fat has deepened your wrinkles, casting shadows beneath your eyes. Under eye wrinkles look like dark circles and make you seem constantly tired. Dr. Lee Haksoo confirms this with you in a personal consultation.
