A Facelift Case for Concerns About a Sagging Facial Contour

As we age, the way our face changes from how it looked before

is one of the natural processes of aging.

In particular, along with decreased skin elasticity,

sagging of the fat layer, SMAS layer, and other tissues

marks the beginning of overall changes to the face.

The patient who visited us this time

also underwent a facelift

to improve age-related sagging.

Luho Facelift,

which lifts the deeper layers of the skin

There are several ways to lift sagging skin,

including thread lifting and facelifts.

However, to address the underlying effects of aging,

the dermis, fat, and fascia (SMAS) layers

need to be lifted together

for the lifting effect to last longer.

Surgical results and recovery processes may vary from person to person.

Before: Sagging visible from the midface to the lower face

🔎 Formation of marionette lines around the corners of the mouth

🔎 A heavy appearance due to sagging in the deep cheeks and cheeks

🔎 A loose jawline and the early formation of jowls

This case focused less on adding volume

and more on restoring sagging tissues

to their original positions through a facelift.

The goal was to reduce the heaviness extending

from the midface to the lower face

and define the boundaries of the jawline.

Key considerations when choosing a facelift

A facelift is not a procedure that simply pulls the skin.

It requires identifying the cause of tissue sagging

and correcting the appropriate layers.

Luho Plastic Surgery considers each person's degree of sagging

and facial structure when selecting the areas for dissection,

helping the results last longer.

After: A more youthful appearance

with a natural lifting effect

✨ Reduced nasolabial folds and shadows around the mouth

✨ Improvement in marionette lines

✨ A more defined jawline due to improved deep-cheek sagging

As the sagging midface and lower-face tissues

were lifted upward, the overall facial contour

appears noticeably more defined.

In addition, the sagging cheek and tissues around the jaw

were refined, giving the face a clearer and more vibrant appearance.

Although aging is a natural process,

if looking in the mirror makes you feel down every time,

it may also be necessary to invest in yourself.

skin thickness, the degree of sagging,

and the structure of the facial bones
