Greetings from Face Plastic Surgery Clinic in Daejeon.
As people age, various parts of the face begin to show signs of gravitational changes. The area under the eyes is particularly prone to sagging due to its thin skin and minimal soft tissue. Protruding fat pads and loose skin under the eyes can often lead to a fatigued appearance and more pronounced signs of aging.
Today, we would like to share a case of lower eyelid surgery in Daejeon performed on a middle-aged male patient. The patient had been concerned for some time about the puffiness and sagging under his eyes. He felt that his reflection in the mirror looked constantly tired and aged, which led him to consider lower eyelid surgery seriously and visit our clinic.
During the preoperative consultation, we thoroughly evaluated the extent of fat protrusion and the degree of skin laxity. The patient’s under-eye contour was uneven, with noticeable bulging fat and thinning, wrinkled skin. In such cases, simple fat removal is not sufficient. Instead, redistributing the protruding fat to achieve better volume balance is more appropriate.
It is important to note that male patients tend to have thicker skin and stronger muscle tone than female patients. Therefore, surgical planning must account for the direction of the incision and the appropriate amount of tension.
The procedure was performed through a lower eyelid incision made just beneath the lower lash line. Through this approach, some of the protruding fat was partially redistributed into the hollow areas to smooth out the under-eye region. Excess skin was conservatively excised, and the skin and muscle layers were repositioned to restore a more defined contour.
The patient returned home on the same day of surgery and had his stitches removed within a week. Initial bruising and swelling lasted a few days but subsided in a stable manner. Over time, the under-eye area appeared more refined and less fatigued.
Lower eyelid surgery in Daejeon for middle-aged men is often sought not only for cosmetic enhancement but also for restoring a cleaner, more refreshed appearance. In this case, the patient reported being more satisfied with his mirror reflection and felt that his overall facial impression became brighter.
Every lower eyelid procedure must be tailored to the individual’s anatomy and degree of aging. For male patients, it is especially crucial to assess muscle orientation and skin condition in detail. Lower eyelid surgery in Daejeon involves careful preoperative planning to avoid an overdone or unnatural result.
After surgery, patients are advised to avoid rubbing the eye area and to maintain proper indoor humidity and sleep hygiene, as these factors influence the healing process.
For those who are starting to notice changes under their eyes, it is recommended to consider surgical options that understand and respect the anatomical structure of the lower eyelid. Lower eyelid surgery in Daejeon aims to achieve natural improvements through personalized diagnosis and surgical design.
As demonstrated in this case, outcomes vary depending on the patient's individual condition. Therefore, clear communication about expected results and proper postoperative care is essential.
Lower eyelid surgery in Daejeon remains a viable option for men seeking under-eye rejuvenation, especially among those in their middle ages who value a natural and revitalized appearance.
All surgeries may involve bruising, swelling, or other complications.
