Facelift

Facelift

A facelift addresses sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and lost facial contours by lifting and repositioning the deeper tissue layers—not just pulling the skin. MINE Plastic Surgery performs comprehensive facelift procedures using wide SMAS dissection and multi-layer lifting techniques, ensuring long-lasting results that look natural rather than tight or artificial. From mini facelifts for mild to moderate aging to full SMAS facelifts for more advanced concerns, we customize each procedure based on the patient’s age, skin elasticity, and degree of sagging.

At MINE Plastic Surgery, Head Doctor Dr. Lee, Sung Wook—a board-certified plastic surgery specialist trained at Seoul Asan Hospital—provides personalized facelift solutions considering each patient’s facial contour, skin type, and aesthetic goals.

Who Should Consider a Facelift?

A facelift is ideal for those experiencing sagging in the mid to lower face, individuals with jowls or deep nasolabial folds, patients whose skin laxity cannot be adequately addressed with non-surgical treatments, and those seeking long-lasting facial rejuvenation. For patients in their 30s to early 40s with early signs of aging, a mini facelift may be sufficient. Those in their 50s and beyond with more advanced aging may benefit from a full SMAS facelift. A facelift can also be combined with a mini neck lift for comprehensive jawline and neck rejuvenation.
