Hello. We are Ribbon Plastic Surgery, helping you discover your natural beauty near Sinsa Station. ^^
You may currently be looking into facelift or lifting procedures because of an overall sagging face and wrinkles. Surgery can feel a bit burdensome, and lifting may also feel like it’s lacking something, so we understand that you may be 고민ing quite a bit.
Looking youthful is one of the important beauty factors in appearance. Of course, the fact that Koreans tend to look younger than their actual age compared to foreigners is partly influenced by innate genetics. But easy access to various anti-aging cosmetic procedures also seems to play a big role.
However, if you try to undergo an overly aggressive procedure without considering your current skin condition, degree of sagging, or treatment area, you may end up with unnatural results after the procedure, so caution is needed. Since unnatural results are even harder to reverse later, we would like to emphasize that you should research carefully before your first procedure.

At Ribbon Plastic Surgery, we always study and do our best with the hope that every patient who visits us will leave with the results they wanted. One reason we are sharing information about mini lifting today is exactly that. ^^
At Ribbon Plastic Surgery, we have always thought about how to reduce the burden of surgery while still delivering satisfying lifting results. As a result, one of the procedures we recommend to many people is the “3-Step Temple Lift.”
If you are looking for information about mini lifting, it may be helpful to learn about the 3-Step Temple Lift we are introducing today. ^^
What Is a 3-Step Temple Lift?
The 3-Step Temple Lift is performed by making a very small incision near the temple area, lifting sagging and drooping skin downward, removing excess tissue, and then suturing it closed. So why do we specifically recommend a temple lift to those looking for mini lifting?
The temple area is one of the parts of the face that tends to sag less compared to other areas. If we observe the structure of our skin and bones, we can see that there is space between them, which means their volume differs.
To explain more simply, the facial area is a place where, because there is some space where the skin and bones do not rub directly, sagging tends to occur more easily as aging progresses. However, the temple area is relatively firm and is often closely attached to the bone, so it tends to sag less than the facial area.
Therefore, if this area is incised slightly and the excess tissue is removed, even as aging continues and skin sagging increases later on, the degree of sagging is not as great, allowing the lifting effect to last for a longer period.

In addition, the 3-Step Temple Lift is also a procedure that complements the shortcomings of existing lifting or mini lifting procedures. It can be performed on its own to tighten sagging skin around the jaw area, but in most cases we recommend combining it with thread lifting.
In particular, we believe it is a more suitable procedure for those who want to strengthen the lifting effect while compensating for the limitations of existing lifting procedures.
Thread lifting is a method that allows partial treatment of the desired area. It is performed to improve the overall face, but it is usually done for the purpose of improving nasolabial folds, deep nasolabial folds, a double chin, and similar concerns.
At this time, threads are inserted below the target area and lifted in the necessary direction. However, if sagging is too severe and too many threads are used or too much force is applied, it can sometimes cause an issue where tissue gathers around the cheekbone area, making the cheekbones appear more prominent.
Some people are dissatisfied after thread lifting because they feel their cheekbones have become larger for exactly this reason. In such cases, performing a 3-Step Temple Lift helps lift the tissue above as well, since it moves upward together, helping prevent tissue from gathering around the cheekbones and supporting a more natural and effective lift.
It may also help compensate for the short maintenance period of thread lifting, so it can be a more efficient way to approach anti-aging than simply undergoing mini lifting, thread lifting, or a facelift.

Some of you may have chosen mini lifting because of the burden of surgery while looking into a facelift.
For these people as well, the 3-Step Temple Lift can be an alternative.
The incision for the 3-Step Temple Lift is relatively small, and at our clinic, the incision is made in a way that protects the hair roots, so after a certain period of time, hair grows back over the incision area. After that, the scar is covered and becomes less noticeable.
In fact, the temple lift that is commonly performed is a surgery that many plastic surgery clinics offer. However, the temple area contains many blood vessels and nerves. Therefore, it is important to have the surgery performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon with sufficient surgical experience and anatomical knowledge.
Please keep this in mind, and before surgery, have a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon and carefully decide whether to proceed so that you can receive a stable operation.

Today, we introduced the 3-Step Temple Lift that we perform at our clinic. You may have been considering lifting, but we shared this procedure because we believe it can be a sufficient alternative and may deliver more satisfying results.
We hope this helps you achieve the results you want, even a little, and if you would like a consultation, you are welcome to contact Ribbon Plastic Surgery.
Thank you.
