KUDO Encore Low Blepharoplasty | Solution for a More Refreshed Look

The eye area is, in fact, interconnected as a single continuous structure. When under-eye fat bulges, it places persistent weight and pressure on the lower eyelid, which inevitably affects the upper eyelid as well. As a result, the eyes appear heavy, the gaze looks narrowed and strained, and an overall fatigued impression is created. Rather than simply removing the protruding fat, KUDO's Encore Low Blepharoplasty repositions it precisely where volume is needed, naturally restoring structural balance beneath the eyes. While immediate improvements are visible post-procedure, the tissue stabilizes over approximately six months, gradually relieving surrounding ocular pressure. Throughout this process, the under-eye area becomes noticeably smoother and the overall gaze opens up to look lighter and more refreshed.

This case clearly illustrates that the outcome extends beyond merely correcting an under-eye bulge. A female patient in her 30s presented with prominent under-eye fat pads that cast dark shadows beneath her eyes, giving her face a tired, somewhat harsh impression. The protrusion interrupted the smooth, continuous contours of the eye area, inadvertently making her look more fatigued than her actual age. Following surgery, the bulge was naturally corrected, seamlessly reconnecting the delicate lines around the eyes into a soft, cohesive curve. The under-eye area transitioned into a flatter, cleanly contoured look, and her once-strained gaze visibly transformed into a much brighter, more relaxed expression. Many of our patients share that beyond the physical difference under their eyes, their overall expression feels softer, their gaze looks visibly more at ease, and their face appears brighter as a whole. This is because the procedure is not simply about correcting protruding under-eye fat, but an integrated process that rebalances the harmony and expression of the entire eye area.

Why does KUDO specifically choose the Encore laser? Our choice of the Encore is not simply because it is a powerful piece of equipment. We believe that with structures as delicate as the periocular area, minimizing tissue trauma and taking an exceptionally precise approach are vital to achieving truly natural results. Instead of conventional electrocautery, KUDO utilizes Lumenis's UltraPulse Encore CO₂ laser to perform delicate surgical incisions. Because the Encore emits an ultra-thin, highly refined laser beam, it allows for delicate tissue incisions while significantly minimizing unnecessary thermal damage to surrounding structures. Consequently, it relieves the burden of post-operative bruising and swelling, supporting a faster, smoother recovery and a quicker return to daily life.
