In fact, physical methods may be effective for temporary edema-type eye bags, but have limited effect on most fatty eye bags. The most effective and fastest way to remove eye bags is still eye bag surgery.

Causes of eye bags: genetics + aging

What are eye bags? Eye bags are the fat that normally cushions the area around the eyeballs, serving to protect and cushion them. When too much fat accumulates, the skin loses elasticity and sags, causing the fat in the eye sockets to bulge out, resulting in bulging lower eyelids that are visible as eye bags.

The formation of eye bags is related to family genetics and aging. As we age, collagen is lost, and eye bags become more noticeable. In addition, the high pressure of modern society means that many people are in a state of long-term sleep deprivation and excessive fatigue. The rise of 3C products has also made excessive use of the eyes a common occurrence. All of these factors can accelerate the formation of eye bags. Therefore, it is necessary to seek the help of eye bag surgery to eliminate them and restore the radiance of the eye area.

Considerations when choosing eyelid surgery

What may seem like a simple procedure requires attention to detail. Depending on the incision location, there are two different methods for blepharoplasty: internal blepharoplasty and external blepharoplasty. When conducting a preoperative assessment, Dr. Hsin-Yu Chen will first understand the cause of each person's blepharoplasty, and then consider factors such as eyelid elasticity, tightness, and the patient's tolerance for scarring to choose the appropriate surgical method.

If eye bags are accompanied by prominent tear troughs and dark circles, it will further aggravate the dullness and aging of the eyes. In such cases, a more advanced hidden-scar eye bag incision + fat transfer surgery can be considered. Through this hidden-scar eye bag surgery, the protruding fat from the eye bags is transferred to the tear trough depression to fill it. This can not only improve eye bags, tear troughs, and lighten dark circles at the same time, but also make the area around the eyes appear firmer and younger, restoring the radiance of the eye area in the most efficient way.

Advantages of using a "fat gun" in Arsty Clinic eye bag/tear trough surgery

1 | Fat grafting results in a more even and smooth finish
Fat guns can precisely control the amount of fat injected each time, resulting in a more delicate fat distribution and reducing the risk of unevenness or lumps.

2 | Improve fat survival rate
By using low pressure to steadily promote fat absorption and reduce fat cell damage, it helps improve fat survival rate and long-term effects.

3｜Improves tear trough depressions for a more natural look
It can be applied in layers, in small amounts multiple times, to make the transition from under-eye bags to tear troughs smoother and create a natural "seamless transition".

4 | Reduce postoperative swelling and bruising
The injection process is relatively gentle, causing less damage to the tissue and thus reducing postoperative swelling and bruising.

5｜Exquisite sculpting to create a three-dimensional effect around the eyes
It is especially suitable for thin, delicate areas like the face, and can be used for fine-tuning to enhance the overall youthful appearance.

Advantages of using "Vecui Fat Filler" in eyelid bag and tear trough surgery

1 | High fat purification level, more stable quality
VieCui fat supplements utilize a fat purification system to effectively filter blood, oil, and impurities, preserving more intact and healthy fat cells and improving the quality of the filler.

2 | Improve fat survival rate
The purified fat cells have a more intact structure, which helps to improve the survival rate and make the fat supplementation effect more lasting and stable.

3 | Reduce the risk of inflammation and uneven absorption
Reducing impurities and damaged cells can decrease postoperative inflammation and reduce unevenness caused by uneven local absorption.

4 | Tear trough filling for a more delicate and natural look
Combined with a fine layered filling technique, it makes the transition under the eyes smoother after eye bag removal, improving sunkenness while maintaining a natural expression, and is also more effective in improving dark circles.

5 | The recovery period is relatively stable.
The fat is of better quality and less irritating, so postoperative swelling and discomfort are usually milder and the recovery process is smoother.

Common problems with eyelid surgery

Q. Will my under-eye bags disappear after eyelid surgery?？

No! Because their locations and formation reasons are different. Eye bags are composed of fat under the eye socket, while "aegyo sal" (or "silkworm-like" eyes) are made of muscles around the eyes. Removing eye bags surgically might make "aegyo sal" more prominent, making your smile more charming.～

 

Q.Will there be scars after eyelid surgery?

It depends on the surgical method you choose.

After internal blepharoplasty: There are no visible scars.

After lateral blepharoplasty: Initially, there will be fine, light red scars that are more noticeable along the lower eyelid. These will gradually fade over time and become less noticeable in about 3 to 6 months (recovery time varies from person to person).

If you have keloids or a strong tendency to form keloids, you should inform your doctor and have a detailed discussion to find the most suitable surgical method for you!

 

Q.How long do the effects of eyelid surgery last?

Generally speaking, it can last for more than 10 years, but it depends on the individual's aging rate, and the duration varies from person to person.

Because the aging process of the eyes continues with age and gravity, skin laxity will eventually occur. Therefore, it's important to protect your eyes after surgery and avoid excessive eye strain to prevent accelerating the aging process!

Q. How should I take care of myself after blepharoplasty?

➤ Surgery time:It takes about 1 to 2 hours, and you can go home to rest on the same day.

➤ Take your medication on time:Post-operative medication will be provided to help reduce inflammation and pain. Please take it on time and get plenty of rest.

➤ Pressure fixation:After the procedure, skin-colored adhesive tape will be used under the eyes to apply pressure and fix the area, helping to reduce swelling.

➤ It will not affect daily life:You can go to work and shower normally, but the wound must be kept clean and dry.

➤ Recovery period:

• Washing your face: The wound should not come into contact with water for a week. You can use a damp towel to wipe other parts of your face.
• Eye makeup: Inward opening – one week later. Outward opening – two weeks later.
• Contact lenses: It is recommended to start wearing them 14 days after the procedure.
• Avoid spicy or irritating foods: Avoid smoking, alcohol, chili peppers, coffee, tea, and other spicy or irritating foods, as these can hinder wound healing.
