I’m debating which of the three below to doㅜㅡㅜ 1. Under-eye fat repositioning + under-eye fat grafting 2. Just fat grafting only (under-eyes, anterior cheeks, lateral cheeks) 3. Do both 1+2 (but it costs twice as much) ————————— I’ve lived almost my whole life with severe dark circles, and I always wanted to get rid of them, but I thought dark circles couldn’t be fixed, so I had given up and lived with them. But after seeing improvement through under-eye fat repositioning and under-eye fat grafting, I went to a plastic surgery clinic for a consultation for the first time!! First of all, when I look at my dark circles, the hollowing in the tear trough area is severe, so I feel like I definitely need fat grafting?? But for fat repositioning… I was wondering, is it necessary? And since I’ve had very little facial fat since I was a baby, I’m also bothered by my hollow lateral cheeks, so I went to the consultation thinking, let’s ask about under-eye fat grafting + lateral cheek fat grafting! (Top concern: dark circles, second: hollow cheeks) At the consultation, I said I wanted fat grafting under the eyes, and the first thing they recommended was 1. under-eye fat repositioning and under-eye fat grafting. But when I said I hadn’t thought about fat repositioning, and asked whether I could also get fat grafting for my hollow lateral cheeks, they mentioned 2. fat grafting to the under-eyes + anterior cheeks + lateral cheeks. My anterior cheek/front cheek area is totally flat, so they said if I graft fat to the under-eyes and anterior cheeks together, I could see an effect even with fat grafting. They said under-eye fat does need to be done, but since it’s not that severe, I could do it later (they did not say I don’t need under-eye fat repositioning). Both are about 1.2 to 1.3 million won, so there isn’t a big price difference! When I said my budget was 2 million won, they told me to choose one of the two. During the consultation, I didn’t really feel the need for under-eye fat repositioning, and I also wanted to fill the hollow lateral cheeks, so I thought I should do option 2 (fat grafting only), but after coming home and thinking about it, the surgeries needed to improve my dark circles are these three in total: under-eye fat repositioning + under-eye fat grafting + anterior cheek fat grafting, so I’m wondering if it would be better to just go a bit over budget and do everything at once while I’m under anesthesia With option 1, I’m worried that since I’m not doing anterior cheek fat grafting, the under-eye hollowing won’t improve much. With option 2, I’m worried that since I’m not doing under-eye fat repositioning, the under-eyes might suddenly become bulgy. With option 3, I’m worried because it goes over budget If I do both, the price doubles Honestly, options 1 and 2 were cheaper than I expected, so I kind of felt like I had saved money Before the consultation, I thought, I’d be satisfied if it got even just a tiny bit better than now! But I also wonder if I’m being too greedy from my very first cosmetic surgery To summarize, 1. Under-eye fat repositioning + under-eye fat grafting 2. Just fat grafting only (under-eyes, anterior cheeks, lateral cheeks) 3. Do both 1+2 (but it costs twice as much) I’m debating between these three What do you all think??
