Why Does the Midface Become Longer?
Hello, this is Balance Lab Plastic Surgery.
As we age, the midface commonly undergoes a change in which it appears to become
“longer.”
Does this really mean that the facial bones become longer?
In fact, rather than changes in the skeletal structure, aging causes skin elasticity to decrease. The soft tissues and fat in the face then sag downward under the force of gravity, shifting the center of the face lower.
That is why many people feel that their midface has become longer.

Recently, however, a short midface has emerged as an important element of the trend toward a youthful appearance.
A short midface means that the distance from under the eyes to the nose is relatively short, giving the impression that the center of the face is positioned higher. This can help create a more dimensional and vibrant appearance.
Can a Long Midface Be Changed?
If sagging skin tissue is the cause, some improvement may be expected through thread lifting or skin treatments.
By lifting sagging tissue with a thread lift and improving the balance of the central face upward, it may help create an appearance with more dimensional and balanced proportions.

I’m Concerned About the Effects and Side Effects of Thread Lifting.
The type of thread used is important, but the results also depend on who performs the procedure and how it is performed.
Balance Lab Plastic Surgery, located at Sinsa Station, has accumulated a wide range of cases based on more than 89,000 lifting procedures and surgeries. Its lifting procedures are performed by a doctor selected as one of the “Top 100 Doctors.”
Rather than simply inserting threads, the clinic carefully analyzes the cause of sagging, the condition of the skin, and the areas of concern. It applies three types of fixation points—A, B, and N—according to each individual, focusing on achieving a more stable and natural-looking lift.

One of the signature procedures at Balance Lab Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station, “Transparent V Lifting,” uses the clinic’s independently developed Raphoel threads and is designed to provide strong tensile strength and long-lasting results.
When necessary, customized lifting is performed. For example, during seasons or in environments where skin elasticity is more likely to decline, Aptos thread lifting, which also offers a skin-booster effect, may be combined with Transparent V Lifting to consider both lifting effects and skin improvement.
In this way, Balance Lab Plastic Surgery does not simply insert threads and pull the skin. Instead, it provides customized lifting by combining various threads and lifting techniques according to each person’s facial structure and skin condition.

A youthful appearance is not created simply by having a small face or a short midface.
What is important is improving the balance of the face through a method suited to you.
Accurately identifying the cause and developing a lifting plan suited to your individual skin condition and facial structure is the beginning of a satisfactory result.

We invite you to consult with Balance Lab Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station about a customized lifting solution suited to you.
