HEV Dermatology Contributes to a New Korean Reference on Periorbital Anti-Aging

HEV Dermatology is pleased to share that Dr. Sulhee Lee participated as a co-author of Everything About Periorbital Anti-Aging Treatment, published by the Korean Academy of Anti-Aging Dermatology (KAAD).

This specialized publication is among the first Korean books to comprehensively address modern periorbital anti-aging care—the medical and aesthetic treatment of the areas surrounding the eyes.

Understanding Periorbital Rejuvenation

The periorbital region includes the eyelids, under-eye area, brow area, crow’s feet, and surrounding facial structures. Because the skin in this area is thin and facial anatomy is complex, treatment requires a detailed understanding of anatomy, aging patterns, and individual patient characteristics.

Concerns commonly addressed through periorbital rejuvenation may include:

• Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes
• Crow’s feet
• Under-eye hollows or volume loss
• Changes in skin texture and elasticity
• Tired-looking eyes or facial expression
• Age-related changes in the brow and upper eyelid area

For international patients, choosing a clinic with experience in this delicate area can be especially important. A personalized treatment plan should consider not only cosmetic goals, but also skin condition, facial balance, medical history, and safety.

Dr. Lee’s Contributions to the Publication

Dr. Sulhee Lee authored chapters focused on the anatomical foundations of periorbital anti-aging treatment as well as a range of treatment approaches.

A thorough understanding of periorbital anatomy is essential for planning treatments safely and effectively. This knowledge helps clinicians assess the relationship between the skin, muscles, fat compartments, ligaments, blood vessels, and surrounding facial structures before recommending an appropriate procedure.

Sharing Clinical Knowledge at the KAAD Summer Special

To commemorate the book’s publication on August 2, 2026, Dr. Lee attended the KAAD Summer Special: 4K Clinical Anatomy Master Class.

During the event, she presented on:

• Periorbital anatomy
• Periorbital rejuvenation strategies
• Clinical approaches based on individual aging patterns

She also shared recent clinical perspectives and treatment experience involving botulinum toxin, biostimulators, and acellular human-derived extracellular matrix (ECM).

A Personalized Approach for International Patients

At HEV Dermatology, periorbital anti-aging treatments are planned with attention to each patient’s unique facial anatomy and concerns. Depending on the individual assessment, treatment plans may involve non-surgical options designed to improve wrinkles, skin quality, volume balance, or overall harmony around the eyes.

For medical tourists visiting Korea, our team aims to provide clear consultations, evidence-based recommendations, and treatment plans that prioritize safety and natural-looking results.

HEV Dermatology’s Commitment to Evidence-Based Care

HEV Dermatology will continue participating in clinical research and academic activities grounded in current medical knowledge. Through ongoing education and an evidence-based approach, we strive to provide safer and more effective periorbital anti-aging care for patients from Korea and around the world.
