Even though I was in my mid-20s, I had never seen anyone around me with lower-eyelid fat protruding and dark circles as severe as mine, lol. Because of this, people said I looked older than my age and often mistakenly thought I looked tired. Even after sleeping well and feeling great, my under-eyes looked hollow in selfies, so I hated having my picture taken.
After deliberating for a long time, I visited Dr. Kang In-ho, whom my cousin recommended after having lower-eyelid fat repositioning at Hyundai Aesthetic Clinic! He has considerable surgical experience and accurately identified my concerns. He explained that sagging lower-eyelid fat made the area bulge and that the shadows made my dark circles more visible... T_T
I liked that the procedure uses a transconjunctival incision, so it leaves no visible scar on the skin, and it included septal reinforcement, which eased my concern about recurrence. Since I am still a student and had to meet people, I worried about a long recovery, but the doctor explained everything kindly, so I finally decided to do it. Haha.
After the procedure, the bulging lower-eyelid fat and shadowy dark circles improved, making my face look brighter. I am happy with the satisfying result. It used to be difficult to cover my dark circles even with makeup, but now I do not need heavy makeup, which makes me very satisfied. My photos also come out well, and I have not noticed any drawbacks so far. I can clearly feel the effect, so I think it was a great decision to have the procedure done~!
