ID Hospital SMAS lift VS other clinic's lifting: why SMAS lift is better?

   When people are middle-aged, they get concerned about their wrinkles. Nasolabial and other facial wrinkles definitely make one look older and cause insecurities and even depression. The best example of solution among various lifting methods for middle-aged people is face lifting. Face lifting is a procedure that pulls and fixes the sagging skin through the incision on the hairline. A patient can expect a dramatic wrinkles improvement, restored V line facial shape and skin lifting from the neck to the eyes.

   However, face lifting recovery includes not very aesthetically pleasing side effects like scarring from incision, swelling, bruising and etc. The right surgical method can minimize these factors.
ID Hospital offers a Non-incision SMAS lift for this case.

   Unlike the general facelift, ID Hospital Non-incision SMAS lift is a special surgical technique with a 1 centimeter incision on the hairline. Since the incision is small and enough to attach the surgical site to the band, a patient can use shampoo, do make up and come back to the daily life on the next day after the surgery.
   In addition, there is no swelling or bruises, so the patient won’t need a long time off for recovery. The effect is seen on the next day after the surgery, so this procedure is especially popular among office workers or elderly people whose main concern is wrinkles.

   Non-incision SMAS Lift fixes each soft tissue layer (skin layer, fat layer, muscle layer), including the skin layer that causes sagging skin. SMAS lift effectively pulls the sagging jawline skin up for a V-line lifting effect, but there are less side effects and recovery time comparing to the alternative lifting procedures.

   Moreover, face lift recovery period and the incision site is different, so the surgeon needs to take into consideration patient's skin condition, skin type, etc. A surgeon with a rich clinical experience should operate in a place equipped with up-to-date medical equipment.
