Very Deep Under Eye Bags

I have a big problem with the area under my eyes,I have 16 years,and 5 to 6 years in the future,I plan on having a surgery.It's not a typical problem with eye bags,because,I don't have any excess fat under eyes,so it's only dark purple skin,and it really feels like "under eye hole",as it goes in depth.I was wondering if there is operation which can transfer fat from the other part of the body to the under eye area,so it fills is in and evens it.Thank you in advance

Unfortunately, some people who undergo fat injections or repositioning of the lower eyelid fat to improve darkeness do not see improvement. Some people complain on these websites having had similar procedures and are unhappy with lumpiness after the fat injections, or seeing new creases or swelling with dents. Proceed cautiously. There is no magical cream either. Many are tried and some patients find that one type works when others disagree but find improvement with another cream. more

Fat transfer to eyes at young age.

AT your age, It may be best to wait. Alternatively, you could rearrange the fat in your face and periorbital area. However, I would not advise transplanting fat at a young age, in general.

Under eye hollowness

There are various surgical and nonsurgical options to address lower eyelid hollowness. One option is transfering fat from elsewhere in the body to the area. Another option is to transpose (or move) fat for the lower eyelid bags to the hollowed area. In short, the answer to your question is yes. Dr T.
