Minimal Incision Lifting — Incision Area

Micro-incisions are made inside the hairline, tailored
to the target area, to minimize visible scarring.

Minimal Incision SMAS Lifting

If you are concerned about deepening wrinkles,
enjoy a more youthful appearance without worrying about scars
through hidden incisions with minimal incision lifting.

Compared to mini lifting, minimal incision lifting targets
a broader area for more noticeable lifting effects, while requiring
smaller incisions than a full facelift, allowing for a shorter recovery period.

345's 4-Step Lifting targets deep down to the retaining ligaments beneath the SMAS layer

By lifting and securing the skin, SMAS layer, retaining ligaments, and temporalis fascia, this technique achieves a dramatic and reliable lifting effect.

After releasing the retaining ligaments, the SMAS layer is maximally lifted, creating a powerful lift, while the fixation to the temporalis fascia ensures a natural and smooth facial expression.

How, Why,

Frequently Asked Questions
about Anti-Aging & Lifting

A double chin is not always simply due to aging, especially when it appears as a localized bulge under the chin. It can result from sudden weight loss or changes in jawbone volume following facial contouring or two-jaw surgery. Additionally, even in those without surgical history, a small or slightly retruded chin may naturally present with a double chin. In other cases, it is primarily due to aging and is often accompanied by sagging. Depending on whether this sagging is caused solely by the skin or also by the platysma (the broad neck muscle) loosening along with the skin, the shape of the double chin may vary.

Since dieting reduces volume, it can lead to additional sagging.
If sagging occurs after surgery due to dieting, the effectiveness of the procedure may appear diminished.
Therefore, if you plan to lose weight, it is advisable to complete your diet before surgery, allowing the lifting procedure to comprehensively address the post-diet condition.
For this reason, any lifting, treatment, or procedure should ideally be performed after achieving your desired weight.

The degree of sagging varies depending on individual skin thickness and elasticity, but sagging can indeed occur. Those with a higher likelihood of volume loss should prepare for potential sagging. While lifting is one solution to address sagging, another effective approach is to extract only pure fat through liposuction and redistribute it to areas where volume is needed.
