what is Lower Eyelid Lift
Conveniently located to serve Gangnam, Apgujeong, Sinsa, Nonhyeon, and Cheongdam, our clinic attracts patients from all over the world seeking care from top surgeons.
Eyelid surgery offers numerous benefits. It can improve vision by correcting sagging upper eyelids that may obstruct your field of vision. The procedure helps smooth out wrinkles and reduce puffiness, giving you a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. It provides natural-looking results, ensuring a refreshed yet subtle transformation. Most importantly, eyelid surgery boosts confidence, allowing you to look as vibrant and energetic as you feel.

who are ideal candidates for the lift
The ideal candidate for a lower eyelid lift is someone with visible puffiness or bags under the eyes caused by fat deposits, sagging skin, or aging. Candidates should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the results, and not have any serious eye conditions, such as severe dry eyes or chronic eye infections. Non-smokers or those willing to quit smoking before and after surgery are preferred, as smoking can interfere with healing. A consultation with a qualified surgeon is essential to determine whether the procedure is appropriate for your specific needs.
overall procedure of lower eyelid lift
The procedure typically involves making a small incision just below the lower lash line or inside the eyelid, depending on the technique chosen. Through this incision, excess fat is removed or repositioned, and loose skin is trimmed or tightened. The surgery is often performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, and the goal is to achieve a refreshed and natural look while maintaining the unique characteristics of the patient’s face.
recovery & aftercare
Aftercare is an essential part of recovery following a lower eyelid lift. Patients can expect mild swelling, bruising, and some tightness around the eyes, which typically subside within one to two weeks. Cold compresses can help reduce swelling during the initial recovery period, and your surgeon may recommend over-the-counter pain relief for any discomfort. It’s important to keep the surgical area clean, avoid strenuous activities, and protect the eyes from direct sunlight by wearing sunglasses. Most patients can return to light activities within 7 to 10 days, but full healing and final results may take several weeks as the swelling fully subsides. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to ensure optimal recovery and the best possible outcome.
