Recovery Guide
What to expect during Deep Plane Facelift recovery
A Deep Plane Facelift (안면거상술) is a surgical anti-aging procedure designed to reposition sagging facial structures by lifting deeper layers of tissue, including the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments. Unlike superficial skin-lifting procedures, this technique targets both skin and underlying muscle laxity to restore natural facial contours, reduce deep wrinkles, and tighten loose skin around the cheeks, jowls, chin, and jawline. This approach provides a more stable and natural-looking result without an overly tight or artificial appearance.
