When people say they want to look “younger” or “sweeter,” they often don’t realize that what they truly desire is a shorter-looking midface.The midface — the area between the eyes and mouth — plays a key role in overall facial proportion and perceived youthfulness. In Korea, the most effective non-surgical way to achieve this balance is through aegyo filler in Korea — a simple procedure that enhances the under-eye area to create a more youthful and compact look.
Why Does the Midface Look Long?
Aging, bone structure, and skin elasticity all influence midface length.Many people assume that jaw or double-jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) can make the midface shorter.While such surgery can reposition the maxilla (upper jawbone), it cannot reduce the visible skin and soft tissue height of the midface.
🩺 Expert Insight:“Skeletal surgery can alter projection and jaw alignment, but it doesn’t meaningfully shorten the visual length of the midface,” explains Dr. Lee, aesthetic specialist in Seoul.
That’s why surgeons usually perform orthognathic procedures to move the jaw forward or backward, not to make the midface appear shorter.
How Aegyo Filler in Korea Creates a Shorter Midface Look
If you want a natural and affordable way to visually shorten the midface, aegyo filler (under-eye filler) is one of the best solutions. ㅡIt works by adding gentle volume to the aegyo-sal — the small, soft roll of skin right below your lower lashes.
This subtle curve reflects light under the eyes, making:
The eyes look larger and more defined
The midface appear shorter
The overall expression softer and brighter
Understanding the Difference Between Aegyo Filler and Under-Eye Fat
People often confuse aegyo-sal (good puffiness) with under-eye fat (bad puffiness).Here’s the difference:
Type | Location | Effect |
Aegyo-sal | Just below the lower lashes | Creates volume, cuteness, and youthful energy |
Under-eye fat | Slightly below the aegyo-sal | Makes you look tired, aged, or puffy |
Aegyo-sal enhances dimensionality and liveliness, while under-eye fat ages the face. The goal is to build the right volume in the right place.
Treatment Options for Aegyo-Sal Enhancement
There are three main methods to create or restore aegyo-sal volume:
Filler injection (hyaluronic acid)
Fat grafting
Artificial dermal implant surgery
Among these, filler treatment is the safest and most reversible.
Why Filler Is the Safest and Most Practical Choice
Surgical methods like fat grafts or dermal implants can be difficult to correct if results aren’t ideal — removal often requires a lower eyelid incision, which risks scarring and unevenness.
By contrast, dissolvable hyaluronic acid filler:
Offers natural volume
Is fully reversible with hyaluronidase (can be dissolved within hours)
Has minimal downtime
Carries no risk of blindness or necrosis, unlike nasal fillers
💬 Doctor’s Note:“Aegyo fillers are one of the safest aesthetic procedures when performed with medical-grade hyaluronic acid. They enhance the eye area’s vitality without major risk.”
The Procedure Process of Aegyo Filler in Korea
Consultation & Design: The dermatologist maps out your under-eye shape.
Topical Numbing: Cream is applied for comfort.
Micro Injection: Small amounts of filler are injected along the aegyo-sal line.
Finishing Touch: The area is lightly massaged to ensure even distribution.
Treatment time: about 10 minutes
Recovery time: immediate — minimal redness or swelling
