Under-Eye Surgery

Overview

Under-eye surgery addresses eye bags and dark shadows by removing or repositioning the fat beneath the lower lid, sometimes with fat grafting to smooth the transition.

Methods & types

• Transconjunctival (no external scar) fat removal/repositioning
• Fat repositioning to fill the tear trough
• Combined with fat grafting when needed

Who it’s for

• Puffy lower-lid bags
• Dark circles from shadowing
• Tired-looking lower eyes

Recovery

• Swelling and bruising for 1–2 weeks
• Most social downtime within 2 weeks
• Final result over 1–2 months

Approximate cost

USD 1,500–3,500

Ranges are rough estimates and vary widely by clinic, technique and individual case. Always confirm the exact price at consultation.

Considerations

• Removing too much fat can hollow the area
• Skin quality affects the result
