Partial Incision Ptosis Correction, Epicanthoplasty, and Under-Eye Fat Repositioning

* Patient Information

# Female in her 20s

# Eye-opening muscle strength: Slightly weak

# Skin thickness: Moderate

# Upper eyelid fat: Present (+)

# Skin sagging: Minimal

# Primary concerns: ‘My eyes look sleepy and small. The dark circles under my eyes make me look tired.’

* Consultation

# We planned to remove fat from the slightly puffy upper eyelids through a partial incision and create a more defined impression using ptosis correction.

# The dark circles caused by bulging under-eye fat were addressed through fat repositioning.

* Surgical Plan

# Partial Incision Ptosis Correction

# Epicanthoplasty

# Under-eye Fat Repositioning

* Post-operative Progress

# Compared to before the surgery, the eyes now appear much more refreshed and distinct.

# Partial incision ptosis correction, similar to non-incisional methods, offers the advantages of 1. minimal swelling and fast recovery, while also 2. allowing for fat removal and 3. providing stronger adhesion.

# Bulging under-eye fat can create a swollen and fatigued appearance. Since this can be resolved relatively simply without scarring via the internal conjunctiva, it is an excellent option for those with minimal skin sagging.

Consultations and surgeries should always be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
