The best thing I did this year was getting a facelift

I am a man in my 50s who came to Seoul from another region for surgery. There are several plastic-surgery directors who are highly skilled and have extensive professional experience with facelifts, but Dr. Area88 was reputed to excel both in skill and character, so I underwent surgery at this clinic two weeks ago. My most important criteria in deciding on surgery were safety with almost no complications, whether recovery would be fast enough to return to daily life when I had only five days of summer vacation, and lastly, whether the most suitable and effective surgical method for Korean faces would be performed. After a sedative injection, I briefly fell asleep. When I woke up, it felt about like the upper blepharoplasty I had received before. I was surprised that there was almost no postoperative pain—enough to return to my lodging without a caregiver—and no swelling or bruising. After three days of treatment, I returned home, and my recovery was so good that I returned to work only six days after surgery. I am again amazed that the surgical skill was far better than I expected. After my vacation, people around me were surprised, saying I looked 15 years younger, so I think getting a facelift at Area88 was the best thing I did this year. Even after surgery, the doctor carefully monitors my progress and kindly explains precautions after I return home. This shows a character that treats each patient as precious, and it earns my deep respect. I thank Dr. Seo Ui-seok, who is regarded as a master of facelift, forehead lift, and ptosis surgery, yet always remains humble.
