Sunken eyes and extra eyelid creases: what can you do?

0:28

How can sunken, hollow-looking upper eyelids be improved?👀 Sunken eyes are often caused by a lack of fat, which can also lead to a sleepy look or extra eyelid creases. Depending on the condition of your eyes, fat grafting may be considered, and if there's also sagging skin, incisional double eyelid surgery or upper blepharoplasty is sometimes combined with fat grafting. The right approach can vary depending on the current condition of your eyes, so it's important to decide after a thorough consultation.

Video transcript

Can severely sunken eyes be improved? Yes, of course they can. It's one of the things that has to be adjusted for during double eyelid surgery. Sunken eyes, naturally, often need fat grafting. When there isn't enough fat, it can not only make the eyes look sleepy but also cause extra creases,

so along with incisional double eyelid surgery or upper blepharoplasty, which removes some of the skin, there are cases where fat grafting is needed. That's why there are often cases where fat grafting should be considered during the consultation, based on the doctor's assessment.
