Lower blepharoplasty in Seoul, Korea
Lower blepharoplasty in Gangnam, Seoul at Marble Plastic Surgery: under-eye fat repositioning and skin tightening for bags, hollows and dark shadows.
Typical ranges for lower blepharoplasty; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is lower blepharoplasty?
Lower blepharoplasty is lower-eyelid surgery that removes or repositions bulging under-eye fat and, when needed, tightens loose skin to smooth eye bags and tear troughs. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, it is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Under-eye bags are usually fat pushing forward, with a hollow beneath that casts a shadow. Repositioning the fat into the hollow smooths both. In younger patients this can be done from inside the eyelid with no external scar; when skin is loose, an incision just below the lashes is used.
Who is lower blepharoplasty for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- Puffy under-eye bags present even when rested
- Tear-trough hollows and dark shadows
- Loose or wrinkled lower-lid skin
- People for whom fillers did not give a satisfactory result
How lower blepharoplasty is performed at Marble
- Consultation and planning Your surgeon assesses fat bulge, the tear trough, skin laxity and lid tone, and chooses between the transconjunctival (inside the lid) and subciliary (below the lashes) approach.
- Anesthesia and monitoring A board-certified anesthesiologist selects the anesthesia with your surgeon, administers it, and monitors you continuously throughout the procedure.
- Repositioning fat and tightening Bulging fat is repositioned into the hollow or conservatively removed, and any excess skin is trimmed and supported to protect lower-lid position.
- Recovery and discharge You rest in a private recovery room under monitoring. Before you leave, the team explains wound care, medication and your follow-up schedule.
Recovery and aftercare
Bruising and swelling usually settle within one to two weeks. With an external incision, stitches are removed after about five to seven days.
- Swelling injection and regenerative LED laser in the first week
- Milia removal at checkups
- 1-year revision guarantee
- Unlimited surgeon-checked scar injections
- Recovery kit to take home

Frequently asked questions
What is under-eye fat repositioning?
Instead of only removing the fat that causes eye bags, the surgeon moves it into the hollow tear trough below, smoothing the transition between the lower lid and cheek.
Will there be a visible scar?
With the transconjunctival approach the incision is inside the eyelid. With the subciliary approach it sits just under the lashes and normally becomes very faint.
Eye bag removal or filler: which is better?
Filler can disguise mild hollows. When fat bulge is the main problem, surgery addresses the cause and lasts longer.
Who will perform my procedure at Marble Plastic Surgery?
