Midface Lift

Midface Lifting is a Lifting procedure that evaluates the degree of laxity in the skin, fat layer, retaining ligaments, and SMAS layer to improve sagging in the midface area extending from the butterfly zone to the front cheeks and around the nasolabial folds. It analyzes under-eye and front-cheek hollowness as well as cheek sagging, aiming for a firm Midface contour.

From under the eyes to the nasolabial folds at once: Midface Lifting

Recommended for These Individuals

Cheek sagging and deepened nasolabial folds

Sagging cheeks that make the Face appear longer

Concerned about both under-eye fat and Tear Troughs

The Real Reason You Look Older Than Your Age

The issue was not the nasolabial folds, but the descended midface. A descended midface cannot be lifted by tightening the skin alone. The key is to lift the descended deep tissue layers.

In which direction should the midface be lifted?

The direction of traction is of utmost importance for midface improvement. The key to the midface is lifting in a vertical direction.
