Facial sagging caused by aging is not just a skin issue.
As we age, not only the skin but also the deeper layers—including muscle and fat—begin to sag.

For truly dramatic and long-lasting lifting results, it's essential to elevate and tighten not just the skin,
but also the underlying SMAS layer and fat tissue together.At Be&Young, our facelift procedures are tailored to each individual’s age,
skin elasticity, SMAS condition, and degree of sagging—ensuring safe, personalized, and natural-looking results.

Facelift surgery must address the true cause of sagging and target the specific areas of concern.

For long-lasting and effective results, it’s not enough to simply lift the skin. The deeper layer beneath the SMAS must be carefully dissected, and the retaining ligaments anchoring the SMAS should be fully released before lifting. This comprehensive approach delivers stronger, longer-lasting facial tightening with natural-looking results.

Step-by-Step Facelift Techniques by Sagging Stage

At Be&Young, we analyze each patient’s age, degree of aging, skin condition, and SMAS integrity to provide a personalized facelift solution tailored to individual needs.

Facelift Requires Accurate Diagnosis
and Extensive Experience.

Be&Young’s minimal-incision deep plane facelift is the result of Dr. In-Sang Kim’s 20 years of surgical expertise—designed to minimize incisions while maximizing results. To perform this technique properly, the surgeon must possess both technical precision and a deep understanding of facial anatomy. Although the incision is minimal, it still requires wide and precise dissection to achieve results comparable to those of a traditional full facelift.

Backed by extensive experience, we focus on identifying the root cause of facial aging and predicting outcomes accurately—ensuring natural, long-lasting, and beautiful results.

Worry-Free Scarring +

With minimal incisions and meticulous suturing techniques, surgical scars become barely visible—typically fading significantly within 3 months.

Powerful Yet Natural Rejuvenation +

By adjusting the direction of SMAS lifting—vertically, horizontally, or in a customized combination based on individual needs—we achieve a strong lifting effect while preserving natural facial expressions.

Postoperative Care for a Faster Recovery +

We support your smooth return to daily life through surgical drain management, in-clinic shampoo service, and aesthetic aftercare treatments.

Refined Jawline Through High-Level Salivary Gland Removal +

In cases where sagging salivary glands are present, a technically advanced removal procedure is performed alongside the facelift. This enhances the definition of the jawline and maximizes the overall lifting effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q Can midface sagging and wrinkles also be improved?

If you’re looking for more comprehensive improvement in the midface area, a facelift alone may not be sufficient. In such cases, combining the procedure with lower blepharoplasty or fat grafting is often recommended for more effective and balanced results.

Q Is there an ideal age range for facelift surgery?

Facelift surgery is generally recommended for individuals in their 40s to 70s who are experiencing noticeable skin laxity. For younger patients, especially those concerned about sagging after facial contouring surgery, a mini facelift is often sufficient to achieve desirable results.

Q Can marionette lines be improved with a facelift?

Yes, facelift surgery is one of the most effective solutions for improving marionette lines. By lifting sagging in the jowls and under the chin, the procedure also smooths and reduces the appearance of marionette lines for a more youthful contour.

Q Do I need to wear a surgical drain after a facelift?

At Be&Young, we recommend wearing a surgical drain after facelift surgery to help prevent complications such as excessive bleeding or hematoma. The drain is typically worn for 1 to 4 days, depending on the amount of postoperative bleeding.

Q Can I still get a facelift after a thread lift?

Yes, a facelift is possible even if you’ve previously had a thread lift. If threads are still present under the skin, they will be removed during the facelift procedure as part of the surgical process.
