“V Line Jaw Lifting” by Precisely Pulling the Target Area

People want to keep their young and elastic skin forever. However, starting from their mid-20's, skin aging slowly begins and progresses when they are in their 30’s and 40’s. 

This is because the collagen layer in the skin decreases and the skin elasticity is degraded which leads to sagging skin and wrinkles. 

Although this is a natural change, it is a sign of aging that those who want to look young want to erase.

 

The part where aging appears fastest is the face. 

This is because it is the part that is exposed the most and when skin elasticity decreases, it is the part that gets directly affected by the force of gravity. 

Once the skin elasticity decreases, it will lead to problems such as sagging cheeks, and sagging chin lines. 

The jaw line which used to be a distinct V shape will start accumulating fat and become an uneven U shape. 

 

Excessive double chin can obscure the boundary between the jaw and neck which makes the face look big and also affect the overall ratio of the face. 

In addition to these aging symptoms, sagging cheeks and bulging buccal fat which occur after facial contouring surgery can also make the face look older.

 

In order to improve this, jaw lifting can be applied. There are methods such as removing the double chin fat by incision or full facelift, they can be burdensome due to the wide incision range. 

Therefore, some medical staff recommend doing jawline lifting since it makes minimal incision and leaves little to no scarring.

 

This method does minimal incision of about 2cm behind the ears, therefore there is no need to worry about scarring after lifting.

It pulls from the buccal fat to the jaw line at once while removing unnecessary buccal fat and fat from the double chin. 

Medical staff recommend this procedure to everyone in their 30’s to 60’s who are worried about their sagging jawline and want to improve it through V line jaw lifting.

 

For those who find facial gastrectomy burdensome and want a procedure with fast recovery, jawline lifting can be used. 

For a synergy effect, Accusculpt or Mini Lifting (which makes a small 1cm incision behind the ear and pulls on the SMAS layer) 

can be used together to also improve wrinkles around the nasolabial folds and the overall sagging of the face.

 

Doctor Nam Dong Woo from DA Plastic Surgery Clinic said, “The aging speed and sagging level for every individual is different. 

Therefore, it is important to make a 1 on 1 customized design and perform lifting that matches each individual for a natural looking result.

It is important to consult with experienced medical staff who have experience with various lifting techniques and proceed with the procedure for pleasing results.”
