From my mid-30s, I could feel my skin elasticity visibly dropping... Every time I looked in the mirror, I realized wow, I'm really aging ㅠㅠ Especially sagging cheeks and a collapsing jawline bothered me so much that even when I put effort into makeup, I couldn't hide looking older. I tried lifting lasers a few times too, but the effect really didn't last... So I made up my mind and started looking into mini lifting! Honestly, I thought this kind of surgery was for people in their 50s and older, but these days, a lot of people start surgery from their late 30s to maintain elasticity early~ When choosing a clinic, I looked most importantly at 1) the director's experience 2) real reviews 3) the surgical method and management system These three things. I went to consultations at several places, but at some places only the consultant did all the talking, and the director only looked at my face for a few seconds or gave such an excessive diagnosis, so I felt uneasy. But after going to the ㅇㅇㄷ clinic my friend introduced me to and getting a consultation, I thought, this is the place! The director consulted with me directly and checked my facial structure and skin condition one by one, and recommended only the areas that were truly necessary. The explanation was really detailed too! The surgery was done under sedation anesthesia and took about 30 minutes. They made a minimal incision along the line in front of the ear, and instead of just pulling, it was a method of pulling and fixing the fascial layer called the SMAS layer. They said this is the key to long-lasting results! The swelling and bruising went down faster than I expected too. For the first 3 days, my face was a bit swollen and my jawline was round, but after about a week it started to settle. The aftercare at the clinic was really helpful too! What I liked most was that even when removing the stitches, they carefully went over precautions and sleeping posture one by one. It didn't feel like surgery once and done; it felt like I was receiving thorough care for more than a month, so I felt reassured. Now it's been a little over a month since surgery, and my jawline has completely come back, and the area around the nasolabial folds has gained elasticity, so my face looks smaller and more lively! My friends say, why does your face look so small these days? What did you do to your skin? When I say I got a lift, they get surprisedㅋㅋㅋㅋ I guess that means it looks that natural! The corners of my mouth that used to look droopy when my face was expressionless also look slightly lifted, so my impression feels softer and younger, and these days I feel really good. Conclusion! If you want to look younger naturally, or laser lifting doesn't work for you, or if you're in your 30s to 40s and worried about a collapsing jawline and sagging skin, I really recommend mini lifting! The surgical burden is low and recovery is fast, but it can make a noticeable difference, so it was a surgery with really high satisfaction.
