Objectives: I show how I resolve the Tyndall Effect and overcorrections in the tear trough sulcus by using a diode laser. Introduction: Fat grafts at facial level usually survive in a high percentage. Areas where the skin thickness is less (skin of the lower eyelid and palpebromalar groove thickness of 1.5 mm) are usually problematic areas due to this possibility of greater survival of grafted fatty tissue or in cases of overcorrection. Materials / method: The case is shown of a complication of a fellow plastic surgeon with overcorrection of fat graft in the palpebromalar groove and orbital margin, and who asks me to give the patient a non-surgical option. Results: The excess fat graft was melted under local anesthesia using a diode laser 980 nm in the office without leaving marks on the skin. Symmetry was achieved in both palpebromalar grooves. Conclusion: I offer the melting of excess grafted fatty tissue using a diode laser as another therapeutic option.
