Optimal fat grafting depth for UEE, dark circles, and infraorbital rim support?

What's the optimal fat grafting depth for the upper and under-eye areas if the goal is fixing UEE and getting better infraorbital support?

I’m choosing between supraperiosteal, subcutaneous, and intradermal.

For the upper eyelid (fixing UEE), deep supraperiosteal seems like the best way. But what about the under-eye area?

To improve infraorbital rim support and fix minor scleral show, it makes sense to go deep on the bone (supraperiosteal). But to wipe out dark circles, shouldn't it be layered with a subcutaneous or intradermal injection right on top of the deep layer?

Has anyone here layered fat grafts like this (deep for bone support + superficial for skin/color)?

A lot of surgeons combine proceadures for this effect.

Infras are usually a cheekbone enhancement and only mildly helps the issues that the lower eye area needs attention too.

The main issue with a lot of us undereyecels comes down to either

lack of fat in the area

excess skin that creases in the area itself

poor / shitty eyelid shape that causes the skin to stretch in certain ways.

Think of it this way, dicks are usually darker than your natural body skin tone, because it extends and retracts too much and when you get hard your dick shade is usually lighter.

surgeons in korea who do this shit cheap usually tell you to get a lower bleph, with fat pad recontruction, and a fat graft ontop of that.

maybe a cantho as well. These will, fill in the dark area, address the stretched skin issue, and address the specific area of the eye that is creased. it is the best way to fix this. individually these surgeries leave mediocre results and non perm ones. but together they keep you well for way longer

best outcome for upper is usually bleph again, combined with cantho or slight browridge implant

Thanks for the solid breakdown, man. The dick analogy actually makes perfect sense regarding the stretched skin.
My lower eyelid skin is completely smooth, but I have scleral show due to weak bone support. So a lower bleph is out (bc not needed) and implants are out due to budget. Also, my skin is super translucent, so blood vessels show through, causing dark circles.
Canthopexy was already planned from the start (didn't mention it earlier because I wanted to focus purely on fat grafting depth).
So, to wrap this up, please tell me if my master plan is correct:
  1. Supraperiosteal (deep) fat graft on the infraorbital rim (builds bone foundation, fixes scleral show).
  2. Intradermal (superficial) nano-fat right on top (thickens skin, camouflages translucent vessels).
  3. Canthopexy (tightens the eyelid margin).
Is this layering correct to fix both the bone deficiency and color without causing bloat?
