Hello. Get prettier now!

This is TS Plastic Surgery.

We all think about and miss how we looked when we were younger. We even think that if we could just go back to our younger days, we could do anything.

But unfortunately, our bodies gradually go through the aging process as time passes. In particular, after our 40s, aging changes become more pronounced, and nasolabial folds, sagging cheeks, and forehead wrinkles begin to appear. Improvement is needed for this.

As skin elasticity decreases and gravity is added, sagging occurs throughout the face. The forehead moves downward and affects the eyelids. Also, the area below the eyes moves toward the mouth.

As a result, nasolabial folds, hollow cheeks, and corner-of-the-mouth wrinkles appear.

There is a way to address this more effectively, and that is facelift surgery. Facelift surgery refers to a procedure in which an incision is made partially behind the ear and sagging skin tissue on the face as well as the neck is pulled upward. It can be applied in various ways depending on the desired range.

Simply put, a facelift is not just about pulling the skin. The fascia beneath the skin must also be lifted to secure it firmly, so that additional sagging or side effects do not occur afterward.

Therefore, above all, careful and meticulous diagnosis and assessment are needed.

Facelift surgery at TS Plastic Surgery Clinic fundamentally begins with a clear analysis. Based on abundant experience and knowledge of facial contouring, we accurately identify the unique skeletal structure of each face and analyze the soft tissue to establish a surgical plan suitable for it.

Also, sagging does not happen only when someone is older. Since the degree of skin aging differs from person to person, people of all ages and genders should, if there is a problem, plan surgery based on a clear analysis through diagnosis and assessment.

There is an incision involved, but facelift surgery can be said to be a process of performing not just skin lifting, but also tightening and then suturing it firmly and inconspicuously.

In particular, the treatment of the retaining ligaments must be clearly addressed. The reason this needs to be organized is that if there are firmly fixed retaining ligaments around the cheekbone, the sagging tissue formed in front of them may be difficult to pull up. This process is necessary to improve sagging in the cheeks and around the mouth.

Here is one more important piece of information! This is the so-called knife-ear phenomenon, which can be considered a side effect of facelift surgery.

This happens when only the skin is pulled during the procedure. As a result, the fascia layer that was not moved returns to its original shape and pulls back in the opposite direction, causing the skin to be drawn again and the ear at the sutured area to be pulled along as well, resulting in the knife-ear phenomenon.

Of course, to prevent additional problems from occurring, the fascia layer must also be lifted together.

The most important thing is to analyze each person's skin and tissue condition based on proper technical skill, know-how, and experience, and then carry out the procedure accordingly.
