Appearance on After the Rain Medical Channel‍⚕️ The Core of a Youthful Face: Forehead, Eye, and Jawline Lifting | Sinnonhyeon Plastic Surgery Vibe Plastic Surgery

Hello, this is Vibe Plastic Surgery :)

As interest in a youthful face grows,

inquiries about anti-aging and youth-enhancing surgeries are steadily

increasing. Rather than simply improving just one area,

it is important to naturally revive the overall flow of the face.

Since youth-enhancing surgeries are considered more complex procedures,

accurate information is crucial.

​

Therefore, this time, on the highly trusted

YouTube channel 'After the Rain', our Head Doctor Yoo Young-moon

appeared and explained anti-aging and youth-enhancing surgeries,

and we would like to introduce those details to you :)

​

For those looking for a Sinnonhyeon plastic surgery clinic,

we will neatly summarize the core points of forehead lifts, eye surgeries, and facelifts

that you might have wondered about at least once!

Why does the face age? 🤔 Core points you must know before youth-enhancing surgery

Before discussing youth-enhancing surgery, first,

there is a question we must address:

"Why does the face look old?"

During consultations at Vibe, a Sinnonhyeon Station plastic surgery clinic,

many people often think it is simply a skin issue,

but actual aging progresses simultaneously across multiple layers.

​

🧬 Skin

Decrease in collagen and elastin → Loss of elasticity

🧈 Fat

Volume loss + Downward migration → Sagging appearance

🔗 SMAS Layer

Weakening of fascia and retaining ligaments → Facial sagging

*SMAS Layer: An important support layer that determines facial sagging

🦴 Skeleton

Decrease in bone structure → Overall volume loss

​

'Sagging and hollowing' are the very essence of aging.

The youth-enhancing surgeries we will explain later

can be understood as the process of improving these two factors

:)

🔍 Where does the face start to sag? Summary of aging causes by area

As we conduct consultations at our Sinnonhyeon plastic surgery clinic,

we see that facial sagging often progresses not just in one area,

but simultaneously across multiple areas.

From now on, we will summarize the causes for each representative sagging area.

​

👃 Nasolabial Folds

These are the wrinkles extending from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth,

which gradually deepen due to cheek sagging and loss of skin elasticity.

​

😠 Jowls (Marionette Lines)

These are the bulging lines coming down

from the corners of the mouth toward the chin,

👉🏻 caused by cheek fat sagging downward

👉🏻 and the weakening of the SMAS layer.

​

🪞 Jawline & Double Chin

The once-defined jawline becomes blurred, and a double chin forms.

👉🏻 The cause is a combination of decreased skin elasticity + fat sagging.

​

🦢 Neck Wrinkles

The skin on the neck is thin, so aging appears quickly.

👉🏻 Vertical wrinkles form as the neck muscles separate,

👉🏻 and a double chin may also appear together.

​

Facial sagging is not a simple skin issue,

but the result of complex interactions between changes in

the skin + fat + SMAS layer + muscles!

💡 The Core Principle of a Facelift

The facelift at Vibe, a Sinnonhyeon plastic surgery clinic,

is not a surgery that simply pulls the skin.

If only the skin is pulled, it can look unnatural and sagging can quickly

reappear, so structural remodeling is important.

​

👉🏻 Dissecting the SMAS layer (the fascial layer beneath the skin that supports the face),

releasing the retaining ligaments,

repositioning the sagging tissues,

and then excising the excess skin without tension

is the core of the procedure.

​

💉 The incision usually extends from the side of the eyebrow (temporal region)

to the front and back of the ear, and down to the back of the neck,

and is performed so that scars are as invisible as possible.

​

🔎 The process of sufficiently dissecting not only the skin but also the sub-SMAS layer

and releasing the retaining ligaments

creates natural and long-lasting results.

​

⚠️ What are retaining ligaments?

They are connecting structures that hold the skin and tissues in place.

If they are not released, the sagging tissues

cannot be sufficiently pulled upward.

✔️ 3 Things You Must Check During a Facelift Consultation!

Vibe will tell you the 3 core points you must check

during a facelift consultation at a Sinnonhyeon plastic surgery clinic!

​

👉🏻 1. Whether retaining ligaments are released

👉🏻 Extent of dissection (how far it proceeds)

👉🏻 Location and extent of skin incision

​

In particular, whether the retaining ligaments are released is very important.

If they are not released, the procedure relies solely on the strength of the sutures,

which can cause the lifting effect to

diminish over time. Therefore, rather than simply

pulling the skin, it is important to check if the surgery

fundamentally improves the cause of sagging, and

✨ Since the surgical method can vary depending on

the individual's degree of skin sagging,

understanding the location and extent of the skin incision is also crucial.

Facelift Surgery, When is the Golden Time?

One of the frequently asked questions at our Sinnonhyeon plastic surgery clinic

is exactly about the timing of the surgery 🤔

​

❌ Misconception 1. It's always better to do it later?

👉🏻 If it gets too late (in your 60s~70s),

· the loss of skin elasticity is severe, and

· bone (skeletal) reduction has progressed,

so the surgical results may be limited.

​

❌ Misconception 2. The surgery can only be done once in a lifetime?

👉🏻 Revision surgery increases in difficulty,

but it is not impossible.

👉🏻 For an experienced surgeon, a second or third

facelift is entirely possible.

​

✔️ Conclusion (Golden Timing)

👉🏻 The point when you feel the limits of non-surgical methods

👉🏻 The period when tissue elasticity and resilience remain

✨ The 40s to 60s can be seen as the most appropriate time.

⭐ The Choice That Makes a Difference in Results

Even with the same facelift, the results can be different.

Vibe Plastic Surgery uses a 1:1 custom surgical plan,

meticulously considering sufficient dissection and

the direction in which the skin and SMAS layer are pulled up

to create natural results :)

We also pay detailed attention to

preventing earlobe deformity (pixie ear).

The results of a facelift vary depending on

the method and timing!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the face look old?

Aging progresses simultaneously in the skin (decrease in collagen and elastin), fat (volume loss and descent), SMAS layer (weakening of fascia and retaining ligaments), and skeleton (decrease in bone structure), manifesting as sagging and hollowing.

What is the core principle of a facelift?

The core is structural remodeling, which involves not simply pulling the skin, but dissecting the SMAS layer, releasing the retaining ligaments, repositioning the sagging tissues, and then excising the excess skin without tension.

Why is the release of retaining ligaments important?

If the retaining ligaments are not released, the sagging tissues cannot be sufficiently pulled upward, and relying solely on the strength of the sutures can cause the lifting effect to diminish over time. Therefore, it is important to check whether fundamental improvement is achieved.

What must be checked during a facelift consultation?

Vibe Plastic Surgery advises checking three things: whether retaining ligaments are released, the extent of dissection, and the location and extent of the skin incision. The surgical method can vary depending on the individual's degree of sagging.

When is the appropriate time for facelift surgery?

The appropriate time is when you feel the limits of non-surgical methods and still have tissue elasticity and resilience. Generally, the 40s to 60s are introduced as the golden timing. For those in their 60s and 70s, the results may be limited.

Is revision facelift surgery also possible?

Revision surgery increases in difficulty but is not impossible. It is explained that for an experienced surgeon, a second or third facelift is entirely possible.
