My mom had front cheek filler injected a few years ago, but as time passed and her face started to sag, her nasolabial folds deepened and the puffiness beside her mouth became more noticeable too.She said it was stressful hearing that her lower face looked heavier overall and that she looked stubborn even when she was just sitting still, so I looked into a lift for her this timeIn the end, we went together for a consultation with Director Jang Wooseok at ID Hospital, and my mom was so scared of surgery at first that she was extremely nervousBut the director explained everything in such a friendly way and even cracked jokes here and there, so by the end of the consultation my mom was asking questions comfortablyAfter the consultation, it turned out that the filler from before and the sagging fat were making the lower face look heavier, so we decided to clean up the puffiness around the mouth and double chin with Accusculpt, and lift the sagging areas with a mini vertical lift plus thread lifting.Right now the swelling has gone down somewhat, but the before-and-after difference is pretty visible.As the bulky tissue beside her mouth was refined, her jawline became much cleaner, and the dark shadow around the nasolabial folds looks lighter than before too, so her face looks a lot softer.I think the best thing is that her face doesn't look overly tight!! It still looks like my mom's original face, but just the parts that had dropped down heavily into the lower face were tidied up, so it looks naturalBecause the incision was made inside the hairline, there's not much visible on the outside, and after surgery she's been checking the progress while also getting aftercare like regenerative laser treatment.My mom keeps looking in the mirror these days and checking her jawline, which is kind of funnyAt first she was so worried and said it was scary, but now she's happy that her face looks lighter, so I'm glad too^^
