Hi Moon
So my dad had severe dark under-eye bags and we went to Korea to get the undereye fat bag repositioning procedure.
Here's what we learned after consultation with multiple clinics.
1. The procedure itself can't change the skin color that has already been pigmentated.
2. There are 3 reasons why the under eyes turn so dark.
a) Pigmentation from excessive sunlight
b) Veins that shine through the skin because of the skin being too thin
c) aging/ under eye fat bag sagging causing the fat bag to buldge and create a larger shadow.
A and B as far as I know is impossible to correct with the undereye bag operation. And Option C is the only thing that can be treated?
So the goal of the operation would be to make the area as flat and smooth as possible to get rid of the shadowing.
Some of the clinics we went to told us that they could 100% get rid of the dark circles, but after researching on the fourm and online + consultations. We learned that already pigmentated skin or thin skin, unless removed cant really be fixed...
Hope my experiences help
