SubSMAS Face Lifting is a procedure that improves wrinkles and sagging face and neck at once and changes into a more youthful appearance. It can effectively address severe sagging skin and wrinkles that cannot be solved my laser and/or thread-lifting.

STEP 01

Designs are made by experienced plastic surgeons to match an individual’s golden ratio and make an incision from inside the hairline, around the ears to the back of the ears.

STEP 02

Pull the skin and SMAS layer together. From pulling the center of the face, double chin and neck upwards, it’ll separate SMAS layer and muscle layer underneath the skin and hold it in place.

STEP 03

Pull the skin upwards and remove any excess droopy, wrinkled skin.

STEP 04

Suture the incision carefully. The incision made inside the scalp is covered by hair and the scars behind the ear are almost invisible.

Can you look young just by pulling the skin?
Grand correct Ligament, SMAS layer + Skin at the same time, the fundamental causes of wrinkles and sagging.

Various ligaments throughout the
face to hold skin and fat

As a result of aging, the skin and fat layer are stretched downwards as the retaining ligament increases, resulting in a nasolabial fold, wrinkles around the mouth and double chin, which gives older-looking face.

Lifting Process by Skin layer

STEP 01
Loose, weakened ligaments of malar bones, masseter, chin, etc. which are the causes of sagging cheeks should be corrected in order for sagging skin and fat layer to be maintained at its original position.
STEP 02
Along with ligament, loose SMAS layer gets pulled upward strongly so that it can prevent other facial tissues to become loose.
STEP 03
Rejuvenation of aging face is completed-younger-looking face is made from aged face with loose skin with wrinkles.

wrinkles on the face and neck.
Raising the sagged retaining ligament, skin, and subcutaneous fat for more defined
