Facelift in Korea is surgery intended to reposition selected facial tissues and address sagging around the cheeks, jawline and lower face.
Surgical approaches include SMAS, deep-plane and mini facelift techniques. These differ in tissue dissection, incision planning and the areas treated. The appropriate method depends on facial anatomy, degree of laxity and surgical assessment. Not every technique is available at every clinic.
A facelift is different from non-surgical tightening or a thread lift.
Read the Korean Face Lift Guide for detailed comparisons, explore Plastic Surgery in Korea, or enquire through Fornur.
Discuss facial sagging, jowls and your desired improvements. Disclose previous facial procedures, medical conditions, medicines and allergies. Confirm the surgical technique, incisions and anaesthesia plan. Ask about scarring, recovery, risks and realistic results. Confirm the total cost, postoperative reviews and travel timing.
Follow the surgeon's instructions for wound care and medication. Keep your head elevated as advised during early recovery. Avoid strenuous exercise until cleared by the surgical team. Attend scheduled reviews and suture-removal appointments. Seek urgent medical advice for severe pain, sudden swelling or unexpected symptoms.
Facelift surgery carries risks including bleeding, infection, visible scarring, prolonged swelling, asymmetry, altered sensation and poor wound healing. Rare but serious complications include facial nerve injury and skin loss. Mini, SMAS and deep-plane facelifts use different surgical approaches and should not be considered interchangeable. Results depend on technique, anatomy and healing. A facelift cannot stop ageing or guarantee a specific appearance. Suitability and surgical planning require assessment by a qualified surgeon.
