What to do about thick eyelid fat
Disease description:
My upper eyelids have relatively thick fat, making my eyes look dull and lifeless. I always feel like my eyes appear particularly small. Could you please advise what would be the best way to treat thick fat in the eyelids?
When dealing with the issue of thick eyelid fat, several solutions can be considered:
1. Natural weight loss is a long-term and effective approach. By controlling diet, reducing intake of high-calorie and high-fat foods, and increasing aerobic exercises such as jogging or jump rope, overall body fat can be reduced, thereby improving fat accumulation in the eyelids.
2. Laser treatment is a non-invasive option that uses photothermal energy to accelerate local fat metabolism, allowing fat to be naturally expelled through the body's metabolic processes. The cost typically ranges from 3,000 to 5,000 yuan. Results usually become visible within 20 to 30 days and can last for 3 to 5 years.
3. For individuals seeking faster results, eyelid liposuction surgery is an option. This procedure involves making a small incision above the eyelid and using negative pressure to remove excess fat, significantly improving the eye contour. The surgery is more expensive, generally costing between 10,000 and 20,000 yuan, but offers long-lasting results that typically last 5 to 8 years.
