Hello. I am Lee Seong-jun, chief director of the Seoul branch of Reiting Plastic Surgery Clinic.
As time passes, everyone experiences aging, and as a result, the skin tissue weakens.
Wrinkles around the eyes and nasolabial folds that were not there before appear, and sagging eyelids or a drooping jawline can create an older-looking impression.
These changes can be described as a natural part of aging, but the traces of time visible on the face often feel like a loss.
These days, medical technology has advanced, and many lifting procedures have been developed to reduce these signs of aging.
Lifting with lasers or threads can be effective for people with only mild sagging, but it may be less effective for those with more severe sagging.
At the famous Gangnam plastic surgery clinic, we recommend choosing a facelift for people with more severe loss of elasticity.

What is a facelift?
A facelift literally means a surgery that lifts the skin tissue of the face and can be considered a physical treatment method.
The procedure involves making careful incisions from the temple to the area in front of the ear, and from the earlobe to the line behind the ear, then pulling up the sagging skin tissue and suturing it.
Because the tissue is lifted directly, it has the advantage of producing more noticeable results than thread or laser lifting.
Many people feel 부담 about hearing that the skin is incised, but our clinic performs stable surgeries based on numerous clinical cases, so you can feel reassured.
Because experienced medical staff carry out a high-quality procedure based on careful design, you can expect satisfying results.

The skill of the medical staff is important
Skin tissue is a delicate and sensitive part of the human body and consists of the epidermis, dermis, SMAS layer, fascia layer, and subcutaneous fat.
To obtain stable healing results, it is wise to receive treatment at the famous Gangnam plastic surgery clinic, where there is extensive anatomical knowledge of the skin as a whole.
Sagging caused by aging does not occur only in the epidermis but across all skin layers, so it is important to lift carefully from deep within.
In particular, only by performing a facelift while properly considering the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments can stable and natural healing results be achieved.
Therefore, if you are considering this surgery, we recommend carefully reviewing the medical team’s refined technique and clinical experience before choosing a medical institution.

What are retaining ligaments?
Earlier, I mentioned that the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments are important for a stable surgery, and now I will explain this in more detail.
The SMAS layer is a skin tissue located deep in the dermis, and to achieve natural results that last a long time, it must be dissected and lifted up to the SMAS layer.
The important point here is to properly release the structure called retaining ligaments that hold the fascia layer in place, and to do that, a high level of anatomical understanding is required.
If the retaining ligaments hold the fascia layer, it cannot move freely, so they need to be released with balance in mind. However, that does not mean all retaining ligaments should be cut.
If all of the retaining ligaments that support the tissue are cut, the fixation strength may weaken and cause problems, so the skill of the medical staff in controlling this properly is important.

Through a highly trustworthy examination
The famous Gangnam plastic surgery clinic has focused only on lifting procedures and has carried out numerous clinical cases, so you can expect highly refined results.
Because facelift surgery, which involves incising, dissecting, and pulling up the skin, is a rather demanding plastic surgery procedure, it is best to have it performed at a place with extensive clinical experience.
Our clinic provides trustworthy treatment based on various clinical cases, and we continuously conduct research and development to improve our technical capabilities.
Since we have established a systematic one-stop consultation system, you can receive efficient and convenient care from consultation to treatment planning, surgery, and post-operative care.
