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, reduced elasticity, sagging, and wrinkles occur.

As facial features and the face begin to sag, the change in one’s appearance can be bothersome every time you look in the mirror,

which can be quite stressful! People try to erase those signs through trendy at-home beauty devices or lifting procedures,

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

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

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

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

In the past, decreased skin elasticity and wrinkle formation were accepted as natural signs of aging,

but now people actively seek to prevent and improve aging.

Among methods for improving aging, 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 improves the cause of facial aging itself, you can expect clear and distinct results.

After making an incision around the ear, the sagging tissue is pulled and lifted all the way to the face and neck,

making this a surgery that can improve every area of the face and deliver dramatic, visible results!

As life expectancy increases in the age of 100-year lifespans,

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

so if you are worried about increased wrinkles and sagging skin, hesitant to visit the clinic,

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

which delivers a definite wrinkle-removal effect!

No more lifting that simply pulls the skin! Restoring Firm, Sagging Skin with a Facelift image 4

The facelift at DM Plastic Surgery, built on the expertise of Director Yoo Won-min, a plastic surgeon with 30 years of clinical experience,

does not simply lift by pulling only the skin.

Through thorough consultation with a specialist, the problem areas are identified and a personalized plan is created,

so each surgery is performed individually, 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, improving both the lifting effect and how long it lasts.

The human face is made up of multiple layers, and the aging changes that occur in the face are especially caused 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 creating a more youthful-looking face.

  • Semi-permanent surgical results

  • Face slimming and V-line effect

  • Natural youthful-looking skin

  • Overall wrinkle improvement across the face

  • Incision made along the ear line

The patient, who had been troubled by sagging skin that had lost elasticity and deep wrinkles,

chose DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift.

The sagging skin was tightened and lifted, and the deep-set wrinkles were also improved,

allowing the photo to show a noticeably younger appearance.

※The degree of swelling and recovery can vary from person to person,

so please keep this in mind.※

What is the SMAS layer?

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

It functions to transmit muscle movement to the skin,

and because it is very closely attached to the skin, it is especially vulnerable to gravity.

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

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

Since lifting the SMAS layer is necessary to solve the fundamental problem of facial sagging,

this surgery offers better results and higher satisfaction than skin-only lifting.

If you want a definite lift, 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! Restoring Firm, Sagging Skin with a Facelift image 8

What is the surgical method for DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift? Restoring Firm, Sagging Skin with a Facelift image 9

  1. The facial line suited to the individual’s condition is clearly diagnosed and designed.

  2. An incision is made from the hidden area inside the hairline along the ear line to behind the ear.

  3. The skin tissue is separated to lift the sagging tissues within the marked area.

  4. The sagging skin is removed, and the cheekbone retaining ligament and masseter retaining ligament are released,

then the SMAS layer is lifted and firmly fixed.

  1. After fixing the lifted skin in place, the remaining skin is removed and carefully sutured.

DM facelift surgery is performed in this way,

and positive results can be achieved only after sufficient consultation with a lifting-specialized medical team

with abundant anatomical knowledge and surgical experience.

With surgery performed by a plastic surgeon who has more than 20 years of clinical experience and a wide range of expertise,

you can expect semi-permanent surgical results,

and not only improvement in facial wrinkles, but also overall facial wrinkle improvement from the eye area to neck wrinkles,

allowing for a balanced, youthful-looking face.

When performing facelift surgery, the skin’s outer surface is not the only area lifted; the SMAS layer is also firmly lifted,

unnecessary tissue is removed, and the area is neatly sutured.

This improves the condition not just on the surface but by addressing the root cause more effectively,

and because the incision is made along the ear line, concerns about scarring are reduced.

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