It has been exactly 1 year since I had under-eye fat repositioning and front cheek lift. I did not have a lot of under-eye fat to begin with, but compared to my age my under-eye fat and skin were very saggy, and the dark circles were so bad that I heard way too often that I looked tired, so I decided on surgery. After looking around at several places, the photos in the first clinic's reviews looked good, so I went ahead with it, but my satisfaction after the surgery is just average... Slightly better than before? Maybe because I did not have a lot of protruding under-eye fat to begin with, it did not change as dramatically as other people's before-and-after photos. The fat that had sagged and gathered under the eyes is gone, but the dark circles are still there. They also recommended under-eye support fixation and front cheek lift, so I paid extra for those, but honestly I do not know if they worked. Apgujeong is expensive anyway, but compared with my personal satisfaction, I think the price was too high. The surgery took about an hour. The pain was truly a feeling I had never experienced in my life; if you endure it, it is bearable, but anyway it is an extremely unfamiliar sensation, and after it ends you are out of it from the anesthesia, and you should not lower your head, so bring one caregiver if you can. The bruising lasted almost 2 to 3 weeks or more, and after about a month or two there was still some residual swelling, so my eyes looked the prettiest when they were plump from the under-eye swelling. Once that period passed and all the swelling went down, I felt just so-so haha If you are like me, with severe dark circles and sunken under-eyes from the start, there may not be as big a change as you expect^^;

Whether it's lateral canthoplasty or lower canthoplasty, I really don't recommend any of it..... scar tissue forms as scar tissue does, and my eye shape changed, so I just ended up looking like I was about to cry. At first I liked it, but…

Among the directors I have met, this one felt the kindest. But my eyes have some sagging, so most clinics recommended a lift, while this place said they could make it look good with only upper blepharoplasty and double eyelid surgery. I'm…
