<Real-life facelift case at DM Plastic Surgery>

As time passes, aging naturally sets in.

Aging is something everyone experiences, and it begins gradually after the growth period ends.

As collagen production decreases due to aging, loss of elasticity, sagging skin, and facial wrinkles appear. As the face line sags differently than before, many people may feel stressed by the change in their appearance.

Although people try to erase the traces of time through trendy at-home beauty devices or laser lifting procedures,

it is difficult to achieve satisfying results because these methods do not address the fundamental cause of aging.

These days, more people are visiting clinics with interest in facelift surgery in order to regain the firm appearance they had when they were younger. Today, let’s take a look at facelift surgery, which helps you meet your younger self once again :)

In the past, wrinkles and reduced elasticity on the face were often accepted naturally as traces of time. However, unlike in the past, many people today actively prevent aging rather than leaving it untreated, and they improve what has already progressed while caring for themselves.

When starting anti-aging care, many people first think of ultrasound or laser lifting procedures. There is the advantage of being able to return to daily life without a separate recovery period, but there is one drawback that everyone can agree on: the duration of the effect. To keep the effect going, there is the inconvenience of having to receive treatments regularly, at intervals, while spending time and money.

That is why, these days, more and more people are growing tired of repeated procedures and are considering facelift surgery, which can deliver clear and satisfying results with just one operation.

If you think facelift surgery is simply a procedure that pulls hard on only the outer skin, that is a misconception. Because it is a method that targets and improves the fundamental causes of aging, you can expect clearer and more definite changes than with any other procedure.

DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift is performed not by simply pulling the outer skin, but by also lifting the SMAS layer beneath the skin.

Rather than having just one area look unnaturally tight, you can see dramatic improvements in wrinkles and sagging across the entire face.

This helps address the fundamental cause of sagging skin and prevent wrinkles, and because the incision is made from inside the hairline along the ear line, scarring is relatively minimal.

If you feel stressed every time you look in the mirror because of a collapsed jawline and deepening wrinkles, we recommend restoring the youthful, firm facial line you have lost with DM Plastic Surgery’s facelift, which addresses the root cause.

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 closely attached to the skin, it is vulnerable to gravity. By securing the SMAS layer, which is a fundamental cause of skin aging, the lifting effect can be stronger and longer lasting.

  1. We clearly diagnose and design the facial line according to each 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 the sagging tissues within the area marked by the dotted line.
  4. The sagging skin is removed, and the zygomatic retaining ligament and masseteric retaining ligament are cut so that the SMAS layer can be pulled and firmly fixed.
  5. After fixing the lifted skin, the remaining skin is excised and carefully sutured.

DM facelift surgery is performed in this way, and positive results can be achieved only after sufficient consultation with lifting specialists who have abundant anatomical knowledge and surgical experience.

The reason facelift surgery differs from general lifting is that it does not simply pull the outer skin. It firmly lifts and secures the SMAS layer, which is the true cause of sagging skin, then removes unnecessary tissue and finishes with neat suturing.

Rather than temporarily smoothing only the wrinkles that are visible on the surface, it improves sagging skin effectively by finding and addressing the fundamental cause of aging.

Many people worry first about scars when they hear the word surgery. At DM Plastic Surgery, the incision is made delicately along the ear line, which helps reduce concerns about postoperative scarring.

You can experience the strong lifting effect and long-lasting results that were not achieved with existing anti-aging care.
