Do your eyes look tired, hollow, or older than you feel—even after getting enough rest? A sunken upper eyelid can significantly change your facial appearance, making the eyes seem deeper set and less vibrant. While some people develop this naturally with age, others experience it after previous eyelid surgery where too much fat or tissue was removed.
At HANI Plastic Surgery, Sunken Eye Revision is designed to address the underlying cause of the hollow appearance rather than simply masking it. The goal is to restore natural volume, improve eyelid contours, and create balanced, youthful-looking eyes that harmonize with your facial features.
What Causes Sunken Eyes?
A sunken upper eyelid can develop for several reasons, including:
- Excessive removal of orbital fat during previous eyelid surgery.
- Natural aging, which leads to volume loss around the eyes.
- Scar tissue or changes following revision surgery.
- Individual anatomical characteristics that make the upper eyelids appear hollow.
Since every patient has a different cause, a personalized evaluation is essential before deciding on the most appropriate revision method.
A Personalized Approach to Revision
Successful correction begins with identifying why the eyelid appears hollow.
At HANI Plastic Surgery, the surgical plan is customized after carefully assessing:
- The amount of remaining orbital fat.
- Skin thickness and elasticity.
- Scar tissue from previous procedures.
- The position and shape of the eyelid crease.
- Overall eyelid anatomy and facial balance.
Rather than using a single technique for every patient, treatment is selected according to each individual’s unique needs.
Surgical Techniques for Natural-Looking Improvement
Depending on the condition of the eyelid, Sunken Eye Revision may involve:
- Fat repositioning, using existing orbital fat to restore lost volume.
- Fat grafting, when additional volume is needed.
- Revision eyelid surgery to improve the crease and overall contour.
- Careful release of scar tissue when it contributes to hollowing or irregular eyelid movement.
The objective is not simply to add volume, but to recreate a smooth, natural upper eyelid contour while maintaining facial harmony.
