After leaving my first review and letting a little more time pass, I wanted to honestly share how things changed in this second review. I had surgery with Director Park Seong-woo at Avec Plastic Surgery. He gave an honest consultation without unnecessary treatment and pursued natural beauty, which made me trust him. I was especially touched that he personally checked me after every surgery and cared for me so attentively. I highly recommend Director Park Seong-woo at Avec.
Before surgery, my under-eye area affected my facial impression more than I had realized. It sometimes looked slightly bulging and shadowed, making me look tired even after enough sleep. Makeup did not fully conceal it, and applying thick concealer made it stand out more, so I kept worrying about it.
After much deliberation, I had lower eyelid fat repositioning. This kind of surgery should not be judged immediately. As the swelling subsided and the tissues settled, my under-eyes became much more natural than after the first procedure. What initially felt unfamiliar now feels as though it is settling naturally as part of my own eyes.
Comparing old and current photos, the change was greater than expected. The bulging under-eye appearance has been reduced, making my whole face look cleaner, which is what I like most. The change is not dramatic, and that is why I prefer it. I look more comfortable overall and less tired. People do not immediately notice what I had done, but sometimes say I look better lately.
The asymmetry was not perfectly equal from the beginning. I worried about it early on, but as the swelling went down and things stabilized, the difference gradually decreased. I do not think the result is completely finished yet, so I am waiting for it to settle further. Compared with the first procedure, it is clearly more natural and balanced, and I am very satisfied.
I learned firsthand that some time is needed after surgery, so I am now observing the progress with more patience. A small change under the eyes can affect the impression of the entire face. I now look at photos more comfortably and spend less time trying to conceal my under-eyes when applying makeup. I do not feel dramatically younger; rather, I look a little more lively and youthful, with some of the tired appearance removed.
If you are considering lower eyelid fat repositioning, I hope you will not worry too much based only on the immediate postoperative appearance. Everyone’s under-eye condition and recovery differ, but in my case the second procedure is much more satisfying and is settling naturally. Overall, I feel I made the right decision. I spent months deliberating, and in hindsight perhaps I worried too long. I recommend consulting about your own condition instead of deciding solely from online reviews.
So far I am satisfied overall, and I look forward to seeing how it settles with more time. The asymmetry that initially concerned me also seems to be finding better balance, so I will wait a little longer. Although the recovery is not completely finished, I am satisfied enough with the changes to leave this second review. If people often tell you that you look tired because of your under-eyes, I hope this helps. I especially like that I look naturally younger and cleaner without appearing excessively changed. I recommend Director Park Seong-woo at Avec Plastic Surgery. Thank you sincerely once again, Director Park!
