Degreasing & Lipo Transfer & Fat Injection
Improve the finish by adding fat injection
Front-line treatment technology enables the removal of the excess under-eye fat-pad, without any swelling and downtime. By using a high frequency wave surgical laser, the treatment is possible without bleeding and visible scars. The collected fat pad is processed to maximize fat cell survival and injected into the under eye area to fine-tune the curves. If a patient has large dents and the removed fat pad is not enough to fill them, a small amount of fat will be collected from the thigh or the abdominal area to inject into the dents. Degreasing (Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty) and lipo transfer, along with fat injection if needed, can create more natural S-shaped curves.
Improving Black Eye Bags and Red Eye Bags
If a patient has dark shadows due to the dents between the under-eye area and the cheek, then additional fat may be injected to make smooth and natural S-shaped curves. Only in such cases, we collect as little as 10cc of fat from the patient’s thigh or abdominal area. Degreasing and lipo transfer basically improves various types of eye bags. And, adding fat injection leads to a better outcome. At Theory Clinic, we choose the most suitable treatment method to match each patient’s symptoms and needs.
Treated Case
Case1
Case2
-
Case3
Before treatment
The puffiness under her eyes was caused by the orbital fat pad inflation.
This patient had dark shadows between the bags and the cheeks.
We needed to inject substantial amount of fat to flatten the gap.
Right after treatment
Puffiness under the eyes is gone.
The shadows have disappeared and it looks as though her cheeks have been lifted up. We injected fat from one spot on each side of the cheeks.
Three days after treatment
Compared to the under-eye area before treatment,the area now looks a little swollen.
This swelling would go away in a few days.
Nine days after treatment
The condition became stable.
At this stage, fine-tuning can be done.
Three months after treatment
No remarkable change.
If swelling occurs right after the treatment,fine-tuning has to be postponed till after the swelling goes away.
No-swelling treatment saves time and reduces burden on patients.

Case4
- This patient received degreasing from another clinic.
Since it did not remove enough fat pads from under her eyes,
the fat pad inflation recurred in a few years.
At Theory Clinic, in order to avoid early recurrence,
we use degreasing to remove enough fat and then use
lipo transfer method to prevent the under-eye area from getting dented. 
Before treatment
he puffiness under her eyes is caused by the orbital fat pad inflation.
If the fat removal is insufficient, the inflation will recur in a few years.
A month after treatment
Puffiness under the eyes is gone.
Red eye bags are also improved.
he treatment for the recurred fat pad inflation is rather complex
because adhesion develops at the treated site. In such cases,
we recommend treatment by a degreasing specialist.

About Downtime
| About Downtime | Remarks | |
|---|---|---|
| Pain | You may develop mild pain, which may last for 2 to 3 days You may have uncomfortable feeling for 3 to 5 days For about a week, you may have pain around the site where the fat was collected |
Take medication for pain as prescribed by our clinic |
| Swelling | You may develop very slight swelling for 2 to 3 days | Take medication for swelling as prescribed by our clinic |
| Internal Bleeding | Occurs infrequently. Varies from patient to patient. Internal bleeding may occur around the site where the fat was collected during the first week. |
Usually disappears within 1 to 2 weeks |
| Follow-up Visit | Not required | If necessary, doctor will examine free of charge. Suture removal from the site where fat has collected is not necessary. |
| Face-wash / Make-up / Contact Lenses |
You can wash your face on the same day. You can wear make-up from the next day; however, wait for 3 days to wear eye makeup. Wait for a week before wearing contact lenses. |
Do not rub the treated area. Some mucus may be secreted from your eyes for about a week. In that case, use eye-drops as prescribed by our clinic. |
| Bathing / Shower | You can take a shower on the same day and a bath from the next day. | Since warming you body increases swelling, do not take bath for a long duration of time for at least a week after the treatment. |

Q&A ? About Degreasing & Lipo Transfer & Fat Injection
- Why Degreasing alone cannot produce a satisfactory result?
- Degreasing is a method that reduces the inflated orbital fat pad under the eyes. Theory Clinic’s “Degreasing plus Lipo Transfer” treatment not only reduces the fat pad inflation but also smoothes undesirable bumpy S-shaped curves. Degreasing alone can correct the S-shape curves to a certain degree; however, in most cases, it is difficult to obtain a satisfactory result. A key to success in the S-shaped curve alignment is to remove “the right amount” of the orbital fat pad. Too much removal produces dents and too little removal leaves puffs. The amount of fat that should be removed differs substantially among individuals. It is hard to judge “the right amount” by looks and it is almost impossible to determine it while a patient is lying on an operating table. The amount of fat that should be removed differs substantially between individuals. It is hard to judge “the right amount” by looks and it is almost impossible to determine it while a patient is lying on an operating table. That is why we, at Theory Clinic, use degreasing and lipo transfer in combination for aligning the S-shaped curves.
