Facelift Lifting: Restoring Natural Contours with a Structural Approach
The face is an area where even small changes can significantly alter one's impression.
More noticeable than wrinkles was the sagging of the cheeks and jawline, which caused the facial contours to collapse.
Patients often say, "My impression has changed even though I've been taking care of my skin."
This is not just a problem of the skin surface, but a change that occurs as the SMAS layer and fat layer that support the face sag together.
A heavy expression and a blurred boundary between the neck and jaw can make the face look wider than it actually is.
Facelift lifting was considered as a solution in these cases.
A facelift is not simply about pulling the skin, but about correcting the SMAS layer to create structural changes.
Ultimately, a structural approach was necessary for natural and long-lasting results.
With age, the various layers of the face undergo simultaneous changes.
Skin elasticity gradually decreases, and muscles and the SMAS layer sag downwards due to gravity.
The fat layer also shifts, deepening nasolabial folds and causing the cheeks to sag heavily.
The jawline becomes blurred, and the boundary with the neck collapses, making it look like a double chin.
These changes could not be concealed with makeup, and there were clear limitations to lifestyle management alone.
Therefore, in the consultation room, we often heard, "Management alone cannot restore elasticity."
Facelift lifting was a method of directly addressing these structural causes.
Fixing the inner layers, not just the surface, was essential to restoring natural expressions and contours.
Patients often agreed with the necessity of surgery once they understood these principles.
Facelift lifting was performed through incisions along the ear line or existing wrinkle lines to minimize visibility.
The key was to separate the SMAS layer, called SMAS, lift it to its original position, and fix it, instead of pulling the skin from the outside.
The surgery took several hours, but a natural contour gradually emerged as the patient recovered.
Over time, the sagging structure returned to its place, reviving the lines of the cheeks, jaw, and neck.
And the incision site gradually faded over time, becoming less visible from the outside.
Facelift lifting was not a process of forcibly pulling the skin's surface, but a structural surgery to restore it to its original position.
Therefore, patients were able to accept the results more positively.
The same method was not applied to everyone.
Factors such as skin thickness, fat distribution, elasticity, and face shape directly affected the results.
For some, sagging cheeks were the main problem, while for others, a collapsing jawline was a bigger concern.
In some cases, restoring the elasticity of the skin itself was a more important factor.
In the examination room, we had sufficient conversations to help patients understand their condition.
The satisfaction with facelift lifting could be increased when unreasonable expectations were reduced and a method suitable for the condition was selected.
A careful consultation process had a positive impact on the attitude of accepting the results, and its impact continued on the quality of life after recovery.
After the surgery, bruising and swelling appeared, but most of them gradually decreased over time.
In most cases, the outline became clearer after 2-3 weeks.
Above all, recovery was not just about waiting, but an important part of completing the result.
Therefore, we helped patients monitor the recovery process together to reduce anxiety and have peace of mind.
Wearing compression bands or maintaining a reasonable lifestyle after surgery helped stabilize recovery.
Those who followed the management guidelines well had a stable recovery rate and the results were naturally completed.
Patients expressed great satisfaction as they directly confirmed the increasingly clear contours.
In the case of a female patient in her 50s, she had been taking care of her skin for a long time, but she was worried about deepening wrinkles and a blurred jawline.
She was often told by people around her that she looked tired, so she decided to get a consultation without further delay.
After sufficient consultation, she underwent a facelift and said that her expression became much brighter after recovery.
She said that she gained confidence when she heard people say that she looked energetic when she talked to them.
This case reaffirmed that facelift lifting is not just a surgery to make the appearance younger, but an opportunity to change one's attitude towards life.
Actual testimonials have been a positive motivation for other patients considering consultations.
Facelift lifting was a process of restoring the collapsed facial structure and restoring its original balance.
Unlike methods that only manage the surface of the skin, it dealt with the SMAS layer, so natural and long-lasting results could be expected.
Therefore, the difference before and after surgery did not stop at the change in appearance, but also gave positive power to the expression and attitude.
I felt a great sense of accomplishment every time I saw patients regain vitality in their lives with new contours.
In the end, facelift lifting was not only aimed at anti-aging, but also a way to help people express themselves comfortably and live confidently.
I sincerely supported many people to find the right method for them and restore clear lines and natural expressions.
