Aging is a natural process that everyone goes through, and it gradually begins after the growth period ends.

As collagen production decreases due to aging, loss of firmness, sagging, and wrinkles occur.

As facial features and the face begin to sag, many people feel bothered every time they look in the mirror because of the change in their appearance,

and the stress can be considerable! People try to erase these signs through trendy beauty home devices or lifting procedures,

but because they do not address the fundamental cause of aging, the effects are very temporary

and the results are also minimal ㅜㅜ These days, more and more people are visiting with interest in facelift surgery

to regain the firm appearance they had in their younger years. Today, let’s take a look at facelift surgery,

which helps you meet the younger version of yourself once again ❤✨✨

In the past, loss of skin firmness and the formation of wrinkles were accepted as natural signs of aging,

but now people actively try to prevent and improve aging.

Among anti-aging methods, ultrasound and laser lifting procedures are very popular, and while they have the advantage

of not requiring a separate recovery period, they need to be repeated consistently,

which is why more people are considering facelift surgery.

Because it is a method that improves the root cause of facial aging itself, you can expect clear and definite results.

By making an incision around the ear and pulling up the sagging tissue extending to the face and neck,

this surgery can improve all areas of the face, allowing you to confirm dramatic and clear effects!

As life expectancy increases in the era of 100 years,

more middle-aged and older adults are taking care of their appearance,

so for those who are worried about increased wrinkles and sagging skin, are hesitant to visit,

or are considering a lift because of aging, please focus on today’s facelift post,

which delivers a clear wrinkle-removal effect!

No more lifting that simply pulls the skin! Facelift: Restoring Sagging Skin That Has Lost Its Firmness image 4

DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift, which incorporates the expertise of Director Yu Won-min, a plastic surgery specialist with 30 years of clinical experience,

does not perform lifting by simply pulling the skin.

Through sufficient consultation with a specialist, the problems are identified and an individualized plan is created,

so surgery is performed according to each person’s needs, resulting in high satisfaction.

DM Plastic Surgery’s SMAS facelift separates and lifts both the SMAS layer and the retaining ligaments beneath the skin,

then firmly fixes them in place, increasing the lifting effect and its duration.

The human face consists of multiple layers, and in particular, facial aging occurs when the SMAS layer,

which connects the skin and muscles, weakens and can no longer function properly.

DM Plastic Surgery’s SMAS facelift checks the overall wrinkle condition of the face

and lifts both the skin and the SMAS layer together, making it an effective surgery for improving wrinkles and helping create a more youthful-looking face.

  • Semi-permanent surgical effects

  • Facial slimming and V-line effect

  • Natural youthful-looking skin

  • Overall improvement in facial wrinkles

  • Incision made along the ear line

The case patient, who was concerned about sagging skin that had lost firmness, chose DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift.

The sagging skin was tightly lifted, and even the lost facial contour was restored,

which you can see in the photos showing a more youthful appearance.

※Please note that the degree of swelling and recovery may vary from person to person.※

Lifting the SMAS layer and separating the retaining ligaments increases the lifting effect! Facelift: Restoring Sagging Skin That Has Lost Its Firmness image 7

What is the SMAS layer?

It is a thin fibromuscular layer located between the subcutaneous fat layer and the muscle layer.

It transmits muscle movement to the skin and is very closely attached to the skin, making it vulnerable to gravity.

By fixing the SMAS layer, which is the fundamental cause of skin aging, together,

you can achieve a stronger and longer-lasting lifting effect.

Because the root cause of facial sagging can only be resolved by lifting the SMAS layer, this surgery has higher effect and satisfaction compared to lifting methods that only pull the skin.

If you want definite lifting, DM Plastic Surgery’s SMAS facelift separates the entire area from the cheekbone

to the masseter retaining ligament, resulting in a stronger lifting effect and higher satisfaction!

DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift is recommended for the following people! Facelift: Restoring Sagging Skin That Has Lost Its Firmness image 8

ㆍPeople looking for a customized 1:1 lifting procedure ㆍPeople concerned about overall facial wrinkles ㆍPeople who want overall improvement in facial firmness ㆍPeople who want semi-permanent results ㆍPeople who did not see results from laser or thread lifting procedures ㆍPeople who want a more youthful-looking image

At DM Plastic Surgery, we recommend facelift surgery for these people.

How is the facelift surgery at DM Plastic Surgery performed? Facelift: Restoring Sagging Skin That Has Lost Its Firmness image 9

  1. The facial contour is clearly diagnosed and designed according to the individual’s condition.
  2. An incision is made from inside the hairline where it is not noticeable, along the ear line and behind the ear.
  3. The skin tissue is separated to pull up the sagging tissues within the marked area.
  4. The sagging skin is removed, and the zygomatic retaining ligament and the masseter retaining ligament are cut to pull the SMAS layer and firmly fix it.
  5. After the lifted skin is fixed, the remaining skin is excised and carefully sutured.

DM facelift surgery is performed in this way,

and positive results can be achieved only when the procedure is carried out after sufficient consultation with lifting specialists

who have extensive anatomical knowledge and surgical experience.

With surgery performed by a plastic surgery specialist who has over 20 years of clinical experience and diverse expertise,

you can experience semi-permanent surgical results.

Not only improving facial wrinkles, but also improving the overall facial wrinkles from the eye area to neck wrinkles,

making it possible to achieve a harmonious youthful-looking face.

When performing facelift surgery, the procedure is carried out by firmly lifting not only the outer skin but also the SMAS layer,

removing unnecessary tissue and suturing neatly.

This does not merely improve the appearance on the outside, but addresses the root cause for more effective improvement,

and by making an incision along the ear line, concerns about scarring are reduced.

You can expect greater effects and a longer maintenance period than with general lifting care.
