Several old reports indicated a survival rate of between 50-90% for pearl fat implanted just beneath the eyelid skin.

Our experience with deeper orbital implantation suggests a higher rate of take. While older superficial methods often resulted in noticeable lumpiness, deep placement of orbital fat provides a much smoother fill.

Deep pearl fat placement into the orbit provides volume enhancement that is more predictable while creating no external scar.

The pearl fat is grafted through a hidden incision into the natural anatomic compartment for orbital fat located behind the orbital septum and between the bone and eye.
