from 5,000,000 KRW* VAT Not Included
This is an incision facelift procedure in which incisions are made within the hair-bearing scalp and along the front and back of the ears, after which the SMAS layer (a thin muscular layer beneath the skin) is dissected, lifted, and secured, and excess skin is removed. It is suitable for patients with significant sagging of the cheeks and jawline or for those who are unlikely to achieve sufficient results with other lifting procedures.
Procedure Overview
JK Facelift (Deep Plane) is a Surgical Midface Lift in which incisions are made along the front and back of the ears within the hairline, the SMAS layer (the thin muscle layer beneath the skin) across the entire face is separated, lifted sufficiently and secured, and excess skin is trimmed. It aims to address the underlying causes of aging and provide a definite Lifting effect for deep wrinkles and sagging cheeks and jawline.
Recommended for the Following
· Those who want to improve overall facial wrinkles · Those with significant sagging of the cheeks and jaw due to aging · Those who did not achieve results with other Lifting Procedures · Those who want long-lasting, definitive Lifting effects · Those whose aging has progressed to the point that wrinkle improvement with a Thread Lift is difficult
Features of the JK Facelift
Point 1. A Method Tailored to Your Age and Needs
Rather than using a standardized surgical method, we select the most effective approach according to the degree of aging by age and each individual's pattern of aging.
Point 2. Comprehensive Analysis Through the SMAS Layer
The skin, fat, muscles, ligaments, and SMAS layer are comprehensively analyzed to consider the balance of the entire Face.
Point 3. Natural, Long-Lasting Results
Rather than pulling excessively and changing your appearance, we pursue natural results that preserve your original appearance and do not look unnatural over time.
Surgical Procedure
STEP 1. Design and Incision
After designing according to the areas that require Lifting, incisions are made from within the hairline along the front and back of the ears.
STEP 2. SMAS Layer Separation
Starting from the incision site, the SMAS tissue (the thin muscle layer beneath the skin surface) is separated downward across the entire Face.
STEP 3. Lift, Secure, and Suture
The separated SMAS layer is lifted sufficiently and secured, excess skin tissue is removed, the incision sites are sutured, and the Face is wrapped.
