Are you looking to address sagging, loose skin and restore firmer facial contours and a more youthful appearance? A facelift is a procedure that attracts considerable attention as signs of aging become increasingly visible. But is this procedure right for you? Which cases should consider undergoing a facelift? Let’s explore the details in the following article!
1. Understanding the Facelift Procedure
A facelift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that focuses on addressing excess skin, sagging soft tissues, and wrinkles caused by aging. Depending on the condition of the face, the surgeon may lift and adjust the underlying tissue layers, including the SMAS layer, combined with the removal of an appropriate amount of excess skin. The procedure typically focuses on addressing sagging skin and wrinkles around the cheeks, nasolabial folds, jawline, and neck.
Depending on the degree of sagging and facial structure, the surgeon will select an appropriate facelift technique, aiming for a firmer, more harmonious appearance while preserving natural facial features.

People with Sagging and Loose Facial Skin
The cheeks and sides of the face may develop loose skin and lose firmness, making the face appear heavier and less youthful. A facelift helps address excess skin and adjust sagging tissues, creating more defined facial contours.
People with Deep Wrinkles
Wrinkles around the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and mouth area become increasingly noticeable, especially when accompanied by sagging soft tissues. In these cases, the surgeon may consider facelift surgery to address the underlying supporting tissue layers.
People with Excess Skin Around the Cheeks and Jawline
Loose skin accumulating around the lower cheeks and along both sides of the jaw makes facial contours less defined. A facelift helps remove an appropriate amount of excess skin while adjusting the underlying tissues to create a firmer jawline.
People with Signs of Aging in the Face and Neck
Sagging skin does not only appear on the face but may also extend to the area beneath the chin and the neck. In these cases, the surgeon may consider combining a facelift with a neck lift, depending on the actual degree of aging.
People Who Have Undergone Rejuvenation Treatments but Have Not Achieved Their Desired Results
Some clients have previously used skincare treatments or non-surgical rejuvenation methods but still have excess skin and sagging soft tissues. In such cases, the surgeon can assess their condition to determine whether facelift surgery is an appropriate option.
