Eye surgery

Under-eye surgery (fat repositioning)

MOOi's under-eye surgery does not simply remove fat: the tear-trough ligament is released and the herniated fat is repositioned into the hollow. The transconjunctival approach leaves no external scar and takes under 30 minutes.

Who it suits

  • Under-eye bags with a deep tear trough
  • Dark under-eyes caused by fat shadow
  • Non-surgical treatment no longer enough

Technique highlights

  • Built on repositioning rather than removal, reducing the risk of a hollow result
  • The midface is assessed too, because under-eye shadow often comes from midfacial descent
  • Can be combined with under-eye fat grafting for deep grooves

Surgical steps

  • Transconjunctival incision with no external wound
  • Release the tear-trough ligament and reposition the fat into the hollow
  • Reinforce the orbital septum where appropriate

Recovery & aftercare

  • Under 30 minutes of surgery under sedation
  • No wound care visit and no stitch removal; daily life resumes immediately

Risks & things to consider

  • Results depend on individual anatomy and after-care.
  • Every operation carries risks and possible complications; consult a specialist first.
  • Surgery time and recovery figures come from MOOi's official pages and may change after the doctor's assessment.
