Deep facelift
Address the underlying causes of aging and improve even deep wrinkles.


For overall facial wrinkles; marked cheek and jawline sagging; unsatisfactory results from other lifting methods; desire for durable, visible lifting; or wrinkles difficult to improve with threads due to age.
For overall facial wrinkles; marked cheek and jawline sagging; unsatisfactory results from other lifting methods; desire for durable, visible lifting; or age-related wrinkles difficult to improve with threads.
Facelift method
After designing the required lift, make an incision from the scalp along the front and back of the ear.
Dissect the SMAS, a thin muscle-fascial layer beneath the skin, downward across the face.


Treatment note
Pull and secure the separated SMAS, remove excess skin, close the incision and apply a facial dressing.

Anesthesia
General anesthesia
6-7 hours
Two nights in hospital
Endoscopic forehead lift with Endotine
Resolve several concerns at once: forehead, glabellar lines, brows and drooping lids.


When drooping brows make the lids look heavy; when the forehead and brows lift during eye opening; deep glabellar or forehead lines; or advanced aging around the forehead and brows.
What is Endotine?
Endoscopic forehead lifting raises drooping brows and smooths forehead lines. An absorbable Endotine implant fixes separated tissue; five pyramid-shaped tines lift the forehead skin and brows.

REAL mini elastic lifting
REAL minimally invasive lifting combines the rapid recovery of thread lifting with the tissue-release benefit of incisional lifting, preserving elasticity and softness.


For sagging cheeks, mouth wrinkles, nasolabial folds and neck lines; office workers needing quick recovery; lifting after facial contouring or jaw surgery; insufficient results from Ulthera or AccuLifting; or those seeking a natural lift.

项目介绍
Elastic threads and endoscopic release reduce incision size while lasting longer than standard threads. The SMAS is lifted under endoscopic guidance to improve laxity and wrinkles. This combines quick recovery with the stronger correction of incisional lifting.

Benefits of REAL mini elastic lifting
Minimally invasive, little scarring and fast recovery
Compared with standard thread lifting, wrinkle reduction is more visible and durable.
One plus one: after about one year, the inserted thread can simply be retightened for a secondary correction without adding new threads.

Common questions
Questions and answers
Review common concerns before your consultation
How many lifting procedures do I need?+
One session can show results, but duration varies, so specialist assessment is essential.
How painful is lifting?+
Pain may last through surgery day or the next day. Severe pain can be controlled with injections and medication during hospitalization.
Will lifting affect daily life?+
Early swelling, bruising and tightness are expected. After major swelling and bruising subside in 1-2 weeks, daily activity can resume if strenuous exertion is avoided.
When can I see results?+
Incisional facelift results are visible immediately. They may continue changing for up to six months, but stabilize from about 2-3 months onward.
