Face Fat Treatment? Why You Need to Choose the Right Lifting Treatment for You

Hello, I’m Lee Seong-jun, the chief director at Liting Plastic Surgery Seoul Branch.

Just as we cannot stop time from passing, we also cannot prevent the skin from losing elasticity and sagging.

However, various anti-aging treatments and facelifts can help respond to these changes and slow them down.

Since there are many different face fat treatment methods, you may have many questions about when and which method should be chosen to maintain a youthful look.

Today, let’s look into how to keep a face looking younger and beautiful for longer.

Lifting lasers and facelifts

One misconception many people have is that getting lifting lasers multiple times reduces the results of a facelift.

The number of laser lifting sessions is determined according to an individual’s facial and skin condition and type, and this is decided by the medical staff.

If you receive lasers consistently, the lifting results can only be better, and as a result, you may not need a facelift.

This is simply because the results vary depending on each skin condition; the number of lifting laser sessions does not determine the results of a facelift.

Ulthera? Facelift?

Another similar misconception about facelifts is that getting Ulthera multiple times reduces facelift results.

As mentioned earlier, this also depends on the fact that if you consistently receive face fat treatments, the skin is in a less sagging state, which affects the outcome.

Even if the same result is achieved, if the skin is in a less sagging state, the before-and-after difference may simply feel less dramatic.

If you have been consistently managing your skin with Ulthera but feel that Ulthera can no longer improve it, we recommend considering a facelift.

Number of thread lifting sessions

Whether it is thread lifting or laser lifting, having it multiple times rather than once will produce more noticeable lifting results.

Even if you receive a face fat treatment, time continues to pass, and the face ages again, so it may be necessary to have it more than once.

However, depending on the stage of aging, it is important to find the method that matches the cause, whether the skin is sagging, the fascia is sagging, or elasticity has decreased.

At our clinic, after thread lifting to tighten the fascia, if skin elasticity is reduced, we combine it with laser lifting to determine the most efficient combination and number of sessions.

When is the right time for a facelift?

If you are considering a facelift, we recommend not delaying it if possible.

There is a limit to how much face fat treatments alone can reverse the changes of time, and it is difficult to improve skin that is already sagging and stretched.

It is better to perform a facelift that more efficiently tightens the face, and then manage it so that it does not age further from there.

If you carefully find the management method that suits you through a medical professional’s diagnosis and follow it closely, you can expect much more satisfying results.

Why lifting should be done in a way that suits each person

If you are considering both a facelift and a face fat treatment, it is more efficient to have the facelift first and then manage it afterward.

For people who are afraid of incisions during a facelift and are only receiving laser lifting, there is also the option of a partial-incision facelift.

However, the appropriate method can vary slightly depending on each person’s conditions, so it is advisable to visit the clinic in person and receive a diagnosis.

I hope you can maintain a youthful face for longer and improve your quality of life with the right method.

Become younger tomorrow than you were yesterday!
