Midlife Plastic Surgery: Maximizing Results When Combining Thread Lifting and Fat Grafting with Stem Cell Therapy

In these days, when interest in appearance is growing across all generations, middle-aged people are no exception. In particular, as this age group experiences noticeable signs of aging such as facial wrinkles, sagging skin, and reduced volume, the number of people considering plastic surgery is steadily increasing.

As people get older, collagen and elastin, which are skin fibers, decrease rapidly. As a result, skin elasticity declines and the skin begins to sag downward. In addition, as facial fat such as cheek volume diminishes, the face can appear older. To address these concerns, lifting and volume-enhancing procedures for middle-aged patients are being actively performed, and representative examples include thread lifting and fat grafting.

Thread Lifting and Fat Grafting Help Address Midlife Concerns Such as Sagging Skin and Reduced Facial Volume

Thread lifting is a procedure in which specialized threads are inserted into the skin layer through tiny openings without incisions. It works by pulling up loosened tissue. By securing the threads to the fascia, it can provide a strong lifting effect, and it can also be applied to areas with deep wrinkles or significant sagging. Through this, it can help improve sagging skin and wrinkles and create a more refined facial line.

However, thread lifting alone may not be enough to adequately restore sunken cheeks or a face lacking definition. This is where fat grafting is used. Fat grafting restores volume by injecting a person's own fat, harvested from areas such as the thighs or abdomen, into the face. It is effective for adding contour to sunken areas such as the midface, forehead, and chin, and for balancing the overall facial features.

When thread lifting and fat grafting are combined, skin elasticity and facial volume can be improved at the same time, making it an excellent procedure combination for middle-aged patients. However, there are also limitations. In aged skin, blood flow decreases, which can lower the fat graft survival rate, making it difficult to maintain volume.

Stem Cell Therapy Helps Improve the Survival Rate of Grafted Fat and Maintain Volume

In such cases, combining stem cell therapy can be helpful. Stem cells contribute to improving the graft survival rate by inducing blood vessel formation in the transplanted fat tissue and facilitating nutrient supply. In addition, they may help shorten recovery time by supporting the regeneration of tissue damaged during the procedure.

Kim Gyu-beom, director of Thank You Plastic Surgery, said, "When stem cell therapy is combined, it can compensate for reduced graft survival and help complete a more natural and three-dimensional facial line, so it is especially recommended for middle-aged patients," and added, "Midlife plastic surgery that combines thread lifting, fat grafting, and stem cell therapy is emerging as an option that can improve appearance as well as quality of life and confidence."

He also added, "Above all, what matters most is an accurate diagnosis and a delicate treatment plan tailored to each person's facial characteristics. Therefore, before choosing a procedure, it is advisable to have a thorough consultation with a specialist who has experience and expertise."
