Facial Asymmetry Surgery? Solve It All at Once with Customized Lifting

Hello, I am Lee Seong-joon, chief director of the Seoul branch of Liting Plastic Surgery.

Even naturally good skin can gradually lose strength as the years go by.

Fine lines may remain as a beautiful reminder of life, but some people struggle day and night with deep wrinkles and sagging skin.

In particular, deep wrinkles or sagging skin around the eyes and mouth can affect your overall impression, and facial asymmetry may appear as well.

In fact, many people want firmer skin and often inquire not only about procedures but also about facial asymmetry surgery.

Today, I will explain various ways to improve skin elasticity, so if you have concerns, it may be helpful to check which option suits you best.

What Is Lifting?

This is probably familiar to many of you by now.

When aging begins, not only the facial muscles but also the elements that help maintain elasticity decrease, leading to wrinkles and sagging.

Lifting is a method that pulls up sagging, wrinkled skin to restore firmness. From the thread lifting that was widely used in the past to today’s more advanced and varied methods, the options have evolved.

One advantage is that, from simple procedures to surgical methods, choices can be made according to an individual’s skin condition and preferences.

At our clinic, we pursue natural-looking changes rather than excessive surgery, so we discuss and plan facial asymmetry surgery tailored to each person.

Recommended Methods by Age

During consultations, there are often cases where people come in thinking about procedures or surgeries that are not suitable for them.

Because everyone’s skin condition, wrinkles, and degree of sagging are different, even if the problem appears in the same area, customized lifting should be performed with overall facial harmony and proportions in mind.

Therefore, at our clinic, we divide ages into a total of five stages and recommend appropriate programs.

For people in their early 30s who do not yet have many wrinkles but want to prevent them in advance, we introduce mini lifting, laser treatments, and injections.

For people in their 30s to 40s, when wrinkles begin to appear in earnest, and for people in their 40s to 50s, when not only wrinkles but also skin sagging begins, we recommend Smile Lifting and drooping-eye lifting.

Finally, for people in their 50s or 60s and older who are already concerned about reduced elasticity and deep wrinkles, we may recommend forehead lift and Smile lift, which can provide stronger lifting effects.

What Is Mini Lifting?

This method has the advantage of a short operation time and only a very small incision, allowing a quick return to daily life.

Because it only requires an incision of about 2 cm near the sideburn area, where the incision scar can be hidden, it is also preferred by those who are burdened by the idea of an incision.

Above all, because no trace is visible on the face, it is also recommended for those who want a natural lifting effect.

It can help improve not only the overall facial line but also concerns such as nasolabial folds and jaw asymmetry by lifting the sagging jawline upward in the direction of the incision and then closing the wound.

What Is Smile Mini Lifting?

Smile mini lifting also involves a small 2 cm incision near the sideburn area, but it differs from mini lifting in that the incision is made diagonally rather than in a straight line.

The Smile method pulls the face around the midface area, which has the advantage of improving elasticity over a wider range.

Because of this, it may help improve nasolabial folds and jawline contours, as well as wrinkles around the eyes and sagging of the cheekbones.

In particular, because it focuses on managing the midface, it can be helpful for those considering facial asymmetry surgery.

What Is a Forehead Lift?

A forehead lift may help people who already have deep forehead or glabellar wrinkles, or whose eyes look tired.

It is a method in which an incision is made along the hairline, the forehead skin is dissected, and the skin is pulled evenly and firmly into place.

Depending on the extent of the incision and the surgical method, there are endoscopic forehead lifts and scalp-incision forehead lifts. A forehead reduction lift is recommended not only for improving sagging but also for people who want a wider forehead or hairline correction.

Above all, because the skin is pulled after dissection while considering the facial shape and degree of sagging, it can be helpful for those who want both facial asymmetry surgery and lifting effects.

If you are still unsure which method is right for you, we also recommend visiting for a consultation first without 부담.

How Should It Be Managed?

Recently, as more people enjoy various forms of exercise, there are also frequent questions about whether it is okay to exercise after procedures or surgery.

Even if there is no incision, if the skin is irritated, it can cause inflammation in the treated area, so it is recommended to avoid raising the skin temperature as much as possible.

In particular, if an incision has been made, extra caution is needed because inflammation or additional damage can occur at the sutured area regardless of the incision size.

If you must exercise, a walking-level intensity such as a stroll is recommended.

Alcohol, which can also raise skin temperature, is best avoided as well.

A Place with Customized Programs

After facial asymmetry surgery, the most important thing is to check whether it was performed in the direction the patient wanted and whether it has settled properly without problems.

However, we often see people who come to our clinic after not receiving the necessary care at the proper time.

Because we understand their disappointment better than anyone, our clinic takes responsibility from the beginning through postoperative care after surgery as well.

In order to provide the most natural beauty, we help each person with customized lifting without excessive treatment. If you are worried about facial asymmetry, wrinkles, or sagging, please feel free to visit us.
