As I got older, my under-eyes became hollow, so I went around for consultations for under-eye fat repositioning + fat grafting. I originally planned to only get repositioning, but most places recommended grafting too.
I already knew my under-eyes were hollow, so I went prepared for fat grafting too, and now I’m debating where to get it done. I have zero experience with procedures or cosmetic surgery so far, but I feel like I need to do my under-eyes, so I’m determined and going to all the well-known places.
1. Director ㄱㅅㅊ at ㅇㄹ The first clinic I went to. They didn’t separately recommend fat grafting and only talked about repositioning. The price was reasonable too, but I wanted to look into other places more, so I kept it as an option.
2. Director ㅇㅌㄱ at ㅇㅅㅋ There was a 10,000 won consultation fee, and both the consultant and the director were kind. But strangely, this place told me not to do under-eye fat repositioning yet and to do it when I’m a bit older. Honestly, I did think it seemed conscientious ㅇㅇ Instead, they recommended Rejuran Eye. Rejuran Eye is as expensive as under-eye fat repositioning, so I passed. But because I wanted under-eye fat repositioning, I kept looking into more places afterward.
3. Director ㅅㅈㅇ at ㅇㅂㅈ This was the place most famous for under-eye fat repositioning ㅇㅇ I think it took about 2 months just to get the consultation. For reference, it’s been a while since I went. They recommended under-eye fat repositioning + fat grafting. I knew I would probably need fat grafting, so I didn’t think much of it when they recommended grafting. The director was kind, but the consultant was not great ㅋㅋ The consultant session was the worst among the places I went to. The director is the famous one, but I don’t know why the consultant’s attitude was bad. At that time, since fat grafting was recommended, I only kept it as an option while looking into fat grafting side effects, and didn’t schedule surgery. Maybe because it’s a famous place, the surgery cost was expensive.
4. Director ㅇㅇㄱ at ㅅㅅㅇ I went here because it was recommended in a cosmetic surgery chat room. They said it’s famous for under-eye fat repositioning. The consultant session was the best. They were really kind, and the photo reviews were good too. This place also recommended under-eye fat repositioning and fat grafting. The consultant explained things so well that I didn’t ask the director any particular questions before leaving. For reference, this place was more expensive than ㅇㅂㅈ.
I think I’ll probably do under-eye fat repositioning + grafting together at either ㅇㅂㅈ or ㅅㅅㅇ. For now, I’m planning to do more online research and clinic visits, then get it done this winter. I joined this community too so I could read reviews.
