Defined as lower blepharoplasty, this procedure is performed through millimetric incisions made either along the lower lash line or on the inner surface of the eyelid, depending on the patient&#8217;s needs. During the operation, the herniated fat tissues are generally repositioned by shifting them toward the tear trough depression rather than being completely removed, and the loosened muscle tissue is tightened. This professional intervention eliminates the chronically tired expression on the face and provides a smooth, firm, and bright appearance around the eyes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When we look at a face, the first thing that draws attention and the area the other person focuses on directly during communication is always the eyes. Lively, bright, and well-rested eyes are among the most important elements reflecting a person&#8217;s energy and youth. However, the passage of time, genetic structure, or an intense lifestyle may gradually overshadow the natural elegance of the eye area. Puffiness that develops especially in the lower eyelid can make a person look constantly tired, sad, or depleted of energy regardless of how much they sleep during the day. The tired expression encountered in the mirror in the morning while hoping for a fresh start may become discouraging for many people. Frequently heard questions from others about sleep or mood are actually direct reflections in social life of this aesthetic problem that arises entirely from an anatomical change. This is precisely where under-eye bag surgery comes into play as an excellent solution. Known in medicine as lower blepharoplasty, this procedure does not simply mean cutting and removing skin due to an aesthetic concern. It is also a highly detailed rejuvenation journey requiring delicate craftsmanship, in which the functional structure of the area is secured and the anatomical transition extending toward the midface is repaired. These interventions, performed with millimetric calculations and the correct techniques, restore the bright vitality that the face has lost over the years.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_Under-Eye_Bags_Develop_and_Which_Problems_Does_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery_Correct\"><\/span>Why Do Under-Eye Bags Develop and Which Problems Does Under-Eye Bag Surgery Correct?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The structure around our eyes is actually a magnificent engineering marvel. Our eyeball is quite secure within a bony socket and is surrounded by soft fat pads to protect it against impacts from outside. There is a very thin but strong membrane that keeps these fat tissues where they should be and acts like a durable barrier for them. This protective membrane is called the orbital septum. At a young age, this membrane is extremely tight and firmly prevents the fat tissue behind it from protruding outward, almost like a tight corset. However, as the years pass, collagen and elastin production begins to slow down here, as it does throughout our body. This reduction causes the tight membrane serving as the barrier wall to loosen and lose its former resistance. The internal fat tissue presses against this weakened membrane and herniates forward. The swollen and raised structure that we see beneath the eyes from the outside is actually our own natural fat tissue that has shifted out of position and moved forward. Of course, this condition does not always occur solely as a result of aging. Sometimes very prominent puffiness may be seen even in the early twenties. The main reason for this is that tissue weakness is entirely a genetic inheritance. This structural predisposition in the natural anatomy may make this aesthetic intervention necessary even at a young age. The main factors that accelerate the formation of under-eye bags are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Advancing age<\/li>\n<li>Genetic predisposition<\/li>\n<li>The effect of gravity<\/li>\n<li>Collagen loss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Evaluations_Are_Performed_Before_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>What Evaluations Are Performed Before Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Achieving pleasing and flawless results from an aesthetic operation begins long before the operating room, during the meticulous planning stage in the examination room. Steps taken routinely without proper planning may generally lead to undesirable appearances. Therefore, focusing only on the bags protruding outward means missing the bigger picture. The general bony framework of the face, skin quality, skin elasticity, and the tension level of the lower eyelid must be evaluated together in detail. Measuring the mechanical strength of the lower eyelid is especially vital for preserving its shape after surgery and preventing it from sagging downward. To assess this, simple tests that provide highly practical yet equally valuable information are performed in the clinical setting. The eyelid is gently pulled downward with a finger and released, and how quickly it wraps around the eyeball again is observed. If the eyelid does not immediately recover and return to its former tight shape, this indicates a marked weakness in the muscle tone of the eyelid. In another assessment, the lower eyelid is pulled forward and outward, and the distance between the eyeball and eyelid is examined. If a larger-than-normal gap appears, looseness of the skin and muscle is confirmed. All these careful examinations reveal the key to the method that will be used during surgery. The methods actively used during the evaluation process are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Snap-back test<\/li>\n<li>Distraction test<\/li>\n<li>Skin quality analysis<\/li>\n<li>Bone structure examination<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Health_Conditions_Are_Considered_Before_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>Which Health Conditions Are Considered Before Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although it may appear to be a localized procedure involving only the eye area, the body&#8217;s overall health status is one of the most important factors directly affecting the surgical process and the comfort of the recovery period. For a successful and comfortable surgical process, it is essential for the body to be fully prepared for this experience. First, the patient&#8217;s eye health history is examined in detail. If there is a pre-existing problem with dry eyes, this condition may temporarily worsen slightly during the postoperative recovery period. Therefore, much more delicate and tissue-preserving steps are planned to avoid disrupting the tear balance. The body&#8217;s hormonal balance also has a major influence on this area. Thyroid gland disorders, particularly the condition known as Graves&#8217; disease, are systemic disorders that may directly cause severe edema around the eyes, tissue swelling, and rapid fat herniation. If such an underlying problem is detected, the thyroid hormones must first be completely balanced and the disease must subside under the supervision of the relevant specialist. Since high blood pressure may also cause small unwanted bleeding episodes during recovery, it must be kept under control within normal limits. Making small adjustments to the patient&#8217;s lifestyle habits a few weeks before the procedure is also extremely important for wound healing. The following must be discontinued before surgery:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Smoking<\/li>\n<li>Blood thinners<\/li>\n<li>Aspirin<\/li>\n<li>Herbal teas<\/li>\n<li>Dietary supplements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Scarless_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery_Transconjunctival_Method_Performed\"><\/span>How Is Scarless Under-Eye Bag Surgery (Transconjunctival Method) Performed?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The major advances achieved in aesthetic surgical techniques over the years have provided innovative options that make the recovery process much more comfortable for patients. Foremost among these is the highly elegant technique known in aesthetic literature as the transconjunctival method and popularly referred to by patients as &#8220;scarless under-eye surgery.&#8221; This special technique is a true gold standard for young and middle-aged individuals who do not have excessive skin excess, deep wrinkles, or tissue sagging in the under-eye area and whose main complaint is entirely the fat bags being pushed outward from within. As the name suggests, the surgical incision is not made through the externally visible skin. Instead, the lower eyelid is gently opened, and access is gained through a tiny opening made in the pink, moist inner mucosa, namely the conjunctival layer. Through this hidden passage measuring less than approximately one centimeter, the problematic herniated fat pads are reached directly. Since there is no intervention on the skin surface, no incision or suture mark can be seen from the outside. The most attractive aspect is that the natural facial expressions and beautiful shape of the eye are perfectly preserved because the very important main muscle tissue responsible for opening and closing the eye is not touched at all. Since visible tissue trauma is minimal after surgery, recovery progresses incredibly rapidly. The main advantages of this technique are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No visible scar<\/li>\n<li>Preservation of facial expressions<\/li>\n<li>Rapid recovery<\/li>\n<li>Natural appearance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Which_Situations_Is_Classical_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery_Subciliary_Method_Preferred\"><\/span>In Which Situations Is Classical Under-Eye Bag Surgery (Subciliary Method) Preferred?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If the source of the problem is not only fat tissue protruding outward from within, and if pronounced looseness, tissue sagging, and deepened skin folds caused by years of fatigue are also involved, the internal intervention mentioned above will naturally be insufficient. Especially in cases where the skin has completely lost its elasticity with advancing age and the muscles have yielded to gravity, the subciliary method, also known as the classical approach, becomes the most appropriate choice. In this method, the surgical incision is made through a very fine line approximately one or two millimeters below the lower eyelashes, parallel to the natural lash line. There is an excellent reason for selecting this location for the incision; the small natural shadow created by the eyelashes conceals the very fine healing scar and allows it to become completely invisible over time. Once the tissues are reached through this route, the skin and muscle layer are gently lifted, and the necessary adjustments are made to the underlying herniated fat. The excess skin and muscle layer loosened by the effects of time are then measured millimetrically, and the excess tissue is carefully removed. When necessary, the sagging muscle tissue is also tightened by gently suspending it upward. In this way, all tissues that have descended toward the middle of the face are restored to their former tight and dynamic positions. The structures reconstructed through intervention are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Herniated fat<\/li>\n<li>Excess skin<\/li>\n<li>Loosened muscles<\/li>\n<li>Supporting ligaments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_Fat_Repositioning_So_Valuable_Within_the_Scope_of_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>Why Is Fat Repositioning So Valuable Within the Scope of Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The approaches of aesthetic medicine and its perspective on tissues have undergone a major evolution over the years and have become much more respectful of natural anatomy. In the past, the approach to under-eye bags was quite direct and aggressive; the bulging fat tissue forming the bag was completely cut out and removed from the body. Although this procedure initially provided a flat appearance in the mirror, serious hollows and depressions began to develop under patients&#8217; eyes over the years, and the bony structure of the eye socket became visible, creating a skeletal appearance. Once it was understood how much the permanent loss of the body&#8217;s own fat volume accelerated facial aging, the focus of modern aesthetic surgery changed completely. Our fundamental principle is no longer to &#8220;reduce and discard tissue,&#8221; but rather to &#8220;preserve the tissue we have and reposition it where it is needed.&#8221; This excellent strategy based on volume preservation is called fat repositioning. The fat causing the bag is not cut away; it is simply released with small interventions. These fat pads are then slowly shifted toward the hollow areas around the eyes that create a sense of emptiness and fixed there like living filler material. A smooth foundation is achieved using the person&#8217;s own living tissue. The unique benefits offered by this modern approach are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Volume preservation<\/li>\n<li>Natural appearance<\/li>\n<li>Long-lasting fullness<\/li>\n<li>Correction of hollows<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Tear_Trough_Deformity_and_How_Is_It_Treated_with_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>What Is Tear Trough Deformity and How Is It Treated with Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When the facial structures of individuals seeking support due to pronounced under-eye bags are examined closely, it is usually observed that another entirely different but equally influential anatomical problem accompanies this condition. The pronounced depression that begins at the lower border where the bag ends and descends diagonally from the inner corner of the eye toward the cheeks in the form of a deep line is called the &#8220;tear trough&#8221; in medical terminology. When light strikes the face, the bulging fat bag above catches all the light and appears bright, while the deep groove immediately below remains completely in shadow and darkness. The main reason patients&#8217; under-eye areas constantly appear dark, purple, or ringed is actually this physical interplay of light and shadow rather than pigment in the skin. The fat repositioning procedure described above disrupts this play of light. The firm ligaments that tightly attach the tear trough to the cheekbone are gently released from within, and the fat tissue released from above is placed into this hollow like a permanent cushion. The deep, tired-looking step between the cheek and eyelid disappears, and a completely flat, soft transition surface is achieved. As the hollow is filled and the surface becomes even, light is now reflected homogeneously from the area. Thus, the well-known purplish appearance created by shadowing largely disappears. The main aesthetic problems corrected are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Deep hollows<\/li>\n<li>Shadow-related dark circles<\/li>\n<li>Stepped appearance<\/li>\n<li>Tired facial expression<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Methods_Are_Used_to_Preserve_the_Eye_Shape_During_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>Which Methods Are Used to Preserve the Eye Shape During Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The lower eyelid is an excellent structure that adapts to the mobile facial expressions of the face and has a very delicate internal balance of tension. During surgery, while excess tissues are removed and the area is reshaped, it is necessary to prevent the tissues from contracting during the natural wound-healing process and pulling the eyelid downward. To preserve the fresh almond shape of the eye and prevent the eyelid from turning outward after the recovery period, protective and supportive procedures must be used, especially in individuals with weak eyelid elasticity. The most reliable and commonly used of these is the procedure called canthopexy. Canthopexy is the process of gently tightening the outer corner of the eye upward and outward and fixing it to the periosteum using special medical sutures without disrupting the structure of the natural ligaments (tendons) at the outer corner of the eye. This small but highly effective protective step creates a strong wall of resistance against the pulling force generated during healing. In more advanced cases, where sagging is very severe or the patient wishes to make the eye shape permanently more upturned and dynamic, a more structural method called canthoplasty is used. Here, the tendon is completely separated from its current position and repositioned by suspending it to a higher level of the bony socket. The methods preferred to support the eye shape are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Canthopexy<\/li>\n<li>Canthoplasty<\/li>\n<li>Suture fixation<\/li>\n<li>Tendon repair<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery_and_Other_Aesthetic_Procedures_Be_Performed_Together\"><\/span>Can Under-Eye Bag Surgery and Other Aesthetic Procedures Be Performed Together?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The facial area is an inseparable whole, and when an aesthetic improvement is planned for the face, the main objective is for all parts to be in harmony and balance. Under-eye bags and the associated tired expression often appear simultaneously with signs of aging or sagging in other areas of the face. At this point, one of the most important questions that arises is whether multiple improvements can be performed during a single anesthesia process. Eye-area aesthetics can be safely combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures in excellent harmony. For example, if there is bagging in the lower eyelid and skin sagging and accumulation in the upper eyelid, both lower and upper blepharoplasty can be combined perfectly in the same surgical session. In this way, the entire eye area becomes brighter, lighter, and rejuvenated at once. Similarly, in people with gravitational sagging in the midface, it is possible to suspend the cheek tissue upward, inject fat into deepened nasolabial (smile) lines, or gently lift the eyebrows to make the gaze much more dynamic. Performing different procedures together in harmony provides comprehensive rejuvenation and prevents the individual from having to undergo multiple recovery periods. Complementary aesthetic procedures frequently performed together are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Upper eyelid aesthetics<\/li>\n<li>Midface lift<\/li>\n<li>Eyebrow lift<\/li>\n<li>Fat injections<\/li>\n<li>Almond eye aesthetics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Are_Anesthesia_and_Surgical_Stages_Planned_During_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>How Are Anesthesia and Surgical Stages Planned During Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For people who decide to undergo aesthetic surgery, the operating room environment itself may sometimes be a minor source of concern. However, advancing medical technologies and modern anesthesia techniques have transformed this process from something frightening into an extremely comfortable and peaceful period of sleep and rest. In procedures involving only the under-eye area, deep general anesthesia requiring the entire body to be connected to a ventilator is generally not necessary. Instead, the sedation method is more commonly preferred, in which the sensation of pain in the area is completely blocked with local anesthesia and the patient is placed into a deeply relaxed state with very safe mild sedatives administered intravenously. During this relaxed state, which may be described as a pleasant dreamlike condition between sleep and wakefulness, the patient feels absolutely no pain or discomfort, experiences no stress related to the procedure, and wakes comfortably when the operation is complete. Timing varies according to the scope of the procedure. If only elegant fat repositioning is performed through an internal approach, the operation is completed within a short period of approximately forty-five minutes to one hour. However, if removal of excess skin, muscle repair, eyelid suspension, or interventions in the midface are added to the process, the duration may extend to two or three hours. The types of anesthesia used for patient comfort throughout the process are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Local anesthesia<\/li>\n<li>Sedation<\/li>\n<li>General anesthesia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_the_Recovery_Process_Progress_During_the_First_Days_After_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>How Does the Recovery Process Progress During the First Days After Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After the operation is completed and the patient is transferred to a comfortable bed, the recovery journey begins, which is just as critical as the meticulousness of the surgery itself. The first and strongest natural response of the human body to a surgical intervention is to send a large amount of fluid to that area to initiate repair and cellular renewal. Due to this very healthy mechanism, edema, meaning mild swelling, together with localized bruising around the eyes during the first forty-eight to seventy-two hours after surgery is expected and normal. Patients should not panic when looking in the mirror during these first few days, because this condition is completely temporary and shows that the body is working on their behalf. To prevent the swelling from increasing further and stop leakage beneath the skin, a very strict cold application routine is established during the first three days. Gel cold packs periodically placed around the eyes during waking hours constrict the blood vessels and virtually prevent the edema from spreading further. Likewise, keeping the head slightly elevated above body level and supported with two pillows while resting and sleeping allows the incredible force of gravity to drain fluid accumulation downward. The use of prescribed products to eliminate the risk of infection and keep the suture lines soft is extremely important. The items actively needed during this early stage of recovery are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cold compress<\/li>\n<li>Two pillows<\/li>\n<li>Eye drops<\/li>\n<li>Protective creams<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Can_Daily_and_Social_Life_Be_Resumed_After_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>When Can Daily and Social Life Be Resumed After Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although the rate of biological tissue healing varies from person to person, the area&#8217;s recovery and normalization process generally follows a fairly consistent timetable. In surgeries performed using the classical approach, namely through an incision beneath the eyelashes, the extremely fine sutures that support aesthetic healing in that area are removed around the fifth or seventh day through a very simple and painless procedure. Once the sutures are removed from the skin, the sensation of pressure and tightness in the area is relieved within seconds. Swelling around the eyes gradually smooths out, and any bruising begins to turn yellow and fade. By the final days of the second week, the majority of bruising has been completely absorbed and eliminated by the body. Most patients can confidently return to their normal work lives, social relationships, and routines during this period. If a faint discoloration remains on the skin, it can easily be concealed with a small amount of concealer so that it is not noticeable from the outside. Patients who use contact lenses can generally resume wearing them with physician approval after the second week. By the first month, almost ninety percent of the tissue edema caused by the operation has been eliminated from the body. The fresh, well-rested, and rejuvenated gaze seen in the mirror has now settled naturally into the face. The process of complete fusion of the internal tissues and their full integration with the face continues at a deeper level. The important milestones during this process are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Removal of sutures<\/li>\n<li>Yellowing of bruises<\/li>\n<li>Resolution of edema<\/li>\n<li>Final settling of the result<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Possible_Risks_That_May_Be_Encountered_After_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>What Are the Possible Risks That May Be Encountered After Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although it is performed for aesthetic purposes to enhance a person&#8217;s beauty and happiness, it is ultimately a surgical procedure, and every surgical intervention naturally carries certain risks of its own. Since the extremely thin skin and muscle anatomy of the under-eye area involves millimetric precision, potential risks must be clearly understood and safe strategies to prevent them must be incorporated into the surgical plan. The most emphasized risk in aesthetic surgery is the condition known as ectropion, in which the lower eyelid sags or turns outward. When the eyelid separates slightly from the eyeball and moves away from it, an aesthetically distressing appearance occurs, and the unprotected eye may develop severe dryness, stinging, and constant tearing. To prevent this, not even one millimeter more skin than necessary should be removed, and the invisible supports mentioned above that suspend the eyelid upward must be applied during surgery. Another rare condition requiring emergency intervention is uncontrolled blood accumulation behind the eye, known as retrobulbar hematoma. To minimize this risk, it is critical for the patient to carefully avoid sudden movements that may trigger blood pressure and increase intravascular pressure, especially during the early recovery period. Movements that must strictly be avoided during the first weeks are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lifting heavy objects<\/li>\n<li>Bending forward<\/li>\n<li>Strenuous exercises<\/li>\n<li>Forceful straining<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long-Lasting_Are_the_Results_Achieved_with_Under-Eye_Bag_Surgery\"><\/span>How Long-Lasting Are the Results Achieved with Under-Eye Bag Surgery?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the issues individuals considering this transformative operation are most curious about, and for which they naturally seek reassurance, is whether they will encounter the same tired and puffy bags in the mirror again years later. Lower eyelid aesthetics is one of the longest-lasting facial aesthetic procedures and allows the individual to maintain a well-rested expression for many years. The fat pads whose volume is meticulously reduced or repositioned by transferring them to the tear trough during surgery generally do not herniate forward in the same way again because the body does not produce new fat in that area. The bright appearance and smooth under-eye contour achieved retain their effect strongly for many years. However, it should be remembered that aesthetic surgery instantly turns back the current appearance of time and provides a major advantage, but it cannot completely stop the progression of the biological clock. The natural aging process continues in its own course. As the years pass, natural reductions in skin elasticity may be observed over time due to environmental factors, regular facial movements, and the damaging effects of sunlight. Fine, delicate crow&#8217;s feet or minimal wrinkles may gradually appear on the surface in later years. Preserving and supporting the flawless, smooth, and dynamic result achieved through surgery at the same quality for many years is directly proportional to how well the individual cares for the skin afterward. The following should be added to the daily routine to preserve skin quality:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use of a high-quality moisturizer<\/li>\n<li>Application of sunscreen<\/li>\n<li>Laser and radiofrequency support<\/li>\n<li>Healthy lifestyle habits<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"accordion\">\n\t<div id=\"accordion-4147015972\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-4147015972-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-what-is-under-eye-bag-surgery-and-which-aesthetic-problems-does-it-aim-to-correct?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-4147015972-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"accordion-heading\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_under-eye_bag_surgery_and_which_aesthetic_problems_does_it_aim_to_correct\"><\/span>What is under-eye bag surgery and which aesthetic problems does it aim to correct?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-4147015972-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-4147015972-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>Under-eye bag surgery is a surgical procedure performed to correct fat accumulation, sagging, and excess skin tissue in the lower eyelid.
