Question

I have dark circles under my eyes, will the fat transfer hide them?

Will my eyes look different after the transfer, may I ask what's the cost of this?

Answer

The appearance of the circles under the eyes depends both on the degree of the step between the volume of the lower eyelids and cheek as well as colour aspects such as pigmentation and transparency of the skin in particular close to the inner corner of the eyes.

That transfer primarily contributes to reducing the discrepancy involving between the cheek and the eyelid and goes a long way toward reducing the visibility of the circles under the eyes, and occasionally will correct them completely.

I would be happy to see in consultation and discuss in more detail your specific situation and concerns.
