Eye bag fat filling tear trough surgery

Eye bag fat filling tear trough surgery is a common surgery. We know that the main cause of tear troughs is the atrophy and sagging of the soft tissue at the lower edge of the orbital septum. This situation can be improved through tear trough filling surgery. The more common tear trough filling surgery often uses autologous fat and hyaluronic acid, which can achieve a good effect of improving the tear trough. Let's take a look at this aspect.

Overview

It is caused by the atrophy and sagging of the soft tissue at the lower edge of the orbital septum. In the past, people only focused on eye bags and ignored their existence, so the treatment of the entire lower eyelid only focused on removing the protruding eye bags, and the sunken tear troughs were left alone; therefore, many patients often complain about the sunken feeling after surgery or feel that the eye bags were not completely removed. In fact, the real reason is that the problem is only half solved. In our outpatient experience, many people do not actually have true eye bags, but rather more serious tear trough problems. Some people even present a completely sunken tear trough when they come for consultation. The treatment is completely opposite to removing the eye bags, as they have to fill them up instead. Therefore, simply talking about eye bag surgery is a narrow definition, because a young face should be round and full, and it is not enough to just remove the protrusions. A complete lower eyelid plastic surgery only requires the tear trough treatment.

Tear trough filling surgery can improve this phenomenon. The materials used for tear trough filling include Iviran, hyaluronic acid, Artefill and autologous fat.

method

The treatment principle of tear trough filling is to fill the sunken area. There are four main methods. The simplest method is to inject hyaluronic acid or collagen. The second is to inject autologous fat tissue. The third is to fill the sunken tear trough with excess fat while correcting the bags under the eyes. The fourth is to implant artificial silicone or Gortex.

Surgical Procedure

The principle of surgical treatment is to fill in autologous fat. The standard practice is to inject autologous fat if the problem is entirely with tear troughs. If there are bags under the eyes, the bags under the eyes are removed first, and then an appropriate amount of fat from the bags under the eyes is recycled. This approach is sufficient for mild to moderate bags under the eyes, but it may not be sufficient for severely sunken tear troughs. Although the principle is simple, filling it beautifully and smoothly requires the operator to have delicate techniques and rich experience. In terms of the survival rate of implanted fat, for mild and moderate conditions, one to two treatments are enough, but for more severe depressions, two to three treatments are required.

Safety and security

Experts use different injection materials according to the different requirements of the patients, but all materials are injected under the premise of safety and without complications, ensuring that beauty and health coexist. Tear trough filling surgery is non-invasive, quick and leaves no traces after the surgery.
