What to expect during Under-Eye Fat Repositioning recovery

Under-Eye Fat Repositioning is a surgical procedure designed to correct bulging under-eye fat and hollow tear troughs without removing the fat entirely. Instead, protruding fat is repositioned evenly beneath the eye to create a smoother and more youthful contour. This technique reduces dark circles, under-eye puffiness, and tired-looking eyes while maintaining natural facial harmony and minimizing recurrence compared to fat removal alone.

Estimated cost
$2,000 – $4,500
