Under-eye fat repositioning + fat grafting

When I was in my 20s, the under-eye fat looked like aegyo-sal, but as I got older, it gradually sagged down and made my eye area look aged. After thinking about it for several months, I decided to get under-eye fat repositioning and had consultations at several places in Busan and Seoul. Among them, I liked the hospital where I was able to consult directly with the director, so I decided to have the surgery there! My under-eye fat wasn’t severe, but the tear troughs made it stand out more, and because my skin was thin, the blood vessels showed through, so dark circles were also part of the issue. So I needed fat repositioning plus autologous fat grafting. After the consultations, I booked the surgery just two days later. On the day of surgery, after getting the anesthetic injection, I was lying in the operating room, and the director said, “Listen to the music, you’ll get sleepy~” I was thinking to myself, “I’m not sleepy,” but then I lost consciousness, and when I woke up, it was all done!! (It started after 10, and including some rest after the surgery, I was discharged a little after 12.) On the day of surgery, aside from slight swelling, stiffness, and the strange feeling because the local anesthesia in my face hadn’t worn off, it was less painful than I expected. Since it was autologous fat, it takes some time for it to adapt and settle through engraftment, and it varies by person, but you need to avoid losing weight for 2-3 months, so I recommend dieting before you go haha I also recommend sleeping on your back with your upper body elevated for a few days! Swelling and bruising are worst for 2-3 days, though it varies by person, and I had swelling for up to 2 weeks~ Daily life was possible almost right away, so I only took one day off and went back to work! Everyone at the hospital was kind, and even after the surgery they contacted me to ask how I was doing and told me what would be good to do, so I felt I could trust them and liked it! My satisfaction is seriously 100%, five stars haha The tear trough area is filled in too, and I’ve heard a lot that I look younger, so I’m extremely satisfied!!
