Not turning back time,but restoring facial balance with Humanity's faceliftA facelift is not simply surgery that pulls sagging skin tight. It is important to consider both the aging skin and the sagging of the SMAS layer (the supportive layer beneath the skin) to restore the structure and balance of the face. At Humanity, our faceliftis designed around an analysis of your facial structure and the causes of aging, including the skin, the SMAS layer, and the retaining ligaments, for natural, long-lasting rejuvenation.Why Choose Humanity for a FaceliftPoint 1A Facelift That Corrects the SMAS, Not Just the SkinFacial sagging is not just stretched skin. It happens as the SMAS (the fascial layer beneath the skin) descends.In our facelift, we carefully release the retaining ligaments that support the SMAS so the sagging tissue can move naturally. Rather than a lift that pulls only the skin, we correct the SMAS as well, aiming for a long-lasting lift that respects facial balance and natural expression.Point 2Contours Designed for Whole-Face BalanceWith the harmony of the whole face in mind, we neatly refine sagging cheeks, deep nasolabial folds (smile lines), and a loose double chin. Rather than improving just one area, we aim to create a smooth, firm facial contour that flows naturally from the jawline to the neck.Point 3Incision Design with Scarring in MindIn our facelift, we place more importance on the location and design of the incision than on its length.- - -Incision LineWe plan the incision along the natural contours of the hairline and ear so the scar is relatively inconspicuous after healing, and we make only the incision needed after carefully considering how much your face sags and how much excess skin there is.Who Is a Good Candidate?· People concerned about a sagging jawline and drooping cheeks· People who look older because of nasolabial folds and sagging around the mouth· People who want a natural, youthful look without looking like they had surgery· People hoping for a long-lasting lift from a single surgeryProcedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment of the Causes of AgingWe plan your surgery after analyzing the causes of facial aging and the condition of your skin, fat, and SMAS layer.Step 2 A Natural Lift Planned for Your FaceWe carefully design the incision location and lifting direction, considering the harmony of your cheeks, jawline, neckline, and expressions.Step 3 Precise Facelift That Addresses the Underlying CauseWe correct the SMAS layer as well for a more stable, longer-lasting result, operating carefully to minimize tissue damage while respecting facial balance and natural expression.Step 4 Structured Recovery Care to Complete Your ResultFrom a pre-surgery safety evaluation to a structured post-surgery recovery program, follow-up by our Medical Director supports a stable recovery.Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 4–5 hoursAnesthesiaIV sedationPain LevelLevel 2 (varies by individual)Follow-Up VisitsAbout 4–5 visitsSuture Removal10–14 daysFrequently Asked QuestionsQ. How long do facelift results last?- A facelift improves sagging by correcting not only the skin but also the SMAS layer. How long the results last varies with your skin condition and rate of aging, and a healthy lifestyle and consistent care help.Q. Are facelift scars very noticeable?- The incisions are made mainly along less visible areas, such as in front of and behind the ear and along the hairline. At first they may look red or feel firm, but they gradually become more natural over time.Q. When can I return to daily activities after a facelift?- It varies by person, but light daily activities are generally possible from 1–2 weeks after surgery. Swelling and bruising gradually improve, and it is best to resume exercise or drinking alcohol according to our medical team's guidance based on your recovery.Q. Is it better to have a facelift and a neck lift together?- If you also have neck sagging or loss of firmness below the jawline, combining a facelift with a neck lift can offer a more balanced improvement. However, we decide the extent of surgery based on your current degree of sagging and the condition of your face and neck.A natural, youthful lookbegins with an accurate diagnosis.Only an accurate analysis of what is causing your face to age can show whether you need a facelift or whether another lifting procedure would suit you better.Through a thorough consultation with a Korean board-certified plastic surgeon, find the anti-aging solution that suits you best.  Book on NAVER  ›  Chat on KakaoTalk  ›  Call Us  ›  Directions  ›

A neckline that shows your age first,naturally restored with Humanity's neck lift.The neck shows signs of aging sooner than the face. As sagging skin, a loosening platysma muscle, and neck wrinkles appear together, the border between the jaw and neck can become blurred. At Humanity, our neck liftaddresses loose neck skin, the platysma muscle, and its connection to the jawline together, to create natural neck movement and a well-defined neckline.What Is the Platysma?PlatysmaThe platysma is a thin, broad muscle that runs from under the jaw down to the collarbone, and it plays a major role in the shape of the neck and its wrinkles.With aging, the platysma loses elasticity and loosens, and its center can separate. As a result, vertical neck bands become more prominent, neck wrinkles deepen, and a once-defined jawline can gradually blur.What Type of Neck Sagging Do You Have?How aging progresses, from the skin to the muscle and fat, differs from person to person.It is important to accurately identify the type and cause of your neck sagging.Deep Neck Wrinkles and Sagging SkinIn this type, the skin loses elasticity, so neck wrinkles deepen and loose, sagging skin appears at the same time.Neck Sagging Like a Pelican's PouchAs the skin and soft tissue lose elasticity, the skin under the jaw and on the neck hangs downward.Neck Sagging That Looks Like a Double ChinSagging under the chin develops when the muscle and skin lose elasticity at the same time and fat builds up.Neck Lift Techniques01. Facelift-Style Neck Lift (Behind-the-Ear Incision)Through a minimal incision along the hairline behind the ear, we pull the loose platysma muscle in the right direction, reposition it, and secure it firmly. Rather than pulling only the skin, we correct the deeper layers for a more natural and stable neckline.02. Double Chin Muscle Tightening (Platysmaplasty)Through a small incision under the chin, we remove excess fat and tighten the loose platysma muscle. Beyond improving vertical neck bands, we draw the separated muscle under the chin together from both sides and stitch it into one, giving the jawline and the border of the neck a sharper definition.Why Choose Humanity for a Neck LiftPoint 1Technique Planned Around the Cause of Your Neck SaggingWe selectively apply the techniques you need based on how much your skin sags and how loose your platysma is, planning an approach that matches your pattern of aging.Point 2Face Contour Design Completed from the Jawline DownImproving neck wrinkles alone cannot create a well-defined neckline. We consider the border where the jawline meets the neck, the double chin, and the volume under the chin together, aiming for a face contour that flows naturally and with dimension even in profile.Point 3Incision Design with Scarring in MindWe plan an incision behind the ear or a small incision under the chin so the scar is relatively inconspicuous after healing, and we make only the incision needed after carefully considering how much your skin sags and how much excess skin there is.Who Is a Good Candidate?· People bothered by sagging neck skin and vertical neck lines· People whose jawline has faded and whose jaw-neck border has blurred· People who feel an aging neck makes them look older· People who want to regain a smooth, well-defined necklineProcedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment of Your Neck StructureWe analyze not only your neck skin, platysma, and jawline but also your fat distribution and degree of sagging to create a personalized surgical plan.Step 2 Custom Design for a Harmonious NecklineWe consider neck sagging, fat volume, and jawline balance together to create a custom design that includes double chin (submental) liposuction when needed.Step 3 Neck Lift That Addresses the Structural CauseWe correct the deeper tissue, including the platysma, for a natural, well-defined neckline without excessive tightness.Step 4 Premium Recovery Care to Complete Your ResultFrom a pre-surgery safety evaluation to a structured recovery program that includes SmartLux LED therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), and LDM, we support a stable recovery.Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 3 hoursAnesthesiaIV sedationPain LevelLevel 2 (varies by individual)Follow-Up VisitsAbout 4–5 visitsSuture Removal10–14 daysFrequently Asked QuestionsQ. Can I have a neck lift on its own?- If sagging in the neck or loose skin under the chin is your main concern, a neck lift alone can bring improvement. However, if you also have sagging along the jawline or in the face, combining it with a facelift may help achieve a more natural result.Q. How long is the recovery?- It varies by person, but sutures are generally removed after 10–14 days, and light daily activities can be resumed relatively quickly. Swelling and bruising gradually improve over time.Q. Where will the scars be?- The incisions are made mainly around the ears and along the hairline so the scars are hard to see. The degree of scarring varies with your skin condition and the extent of surgery.Q. How long do the results last?- Aging continues, but because the sagging tissue is corrected, the improved neckline can be maintained for a relatively long time. How long it lasts depends on your skin condition, rate of aging, and lifestyle.A well-defined necklinechanges the impression of your whole face.An accurate diagnosis determines whether you need a neck lift alone or whether it is better planned together with a facelift.Through a thorough consultation with a Korean board-certified plastic surgeon, discover the natural neck rejuvenation that suits you.  Book on NAVER  ›  Chat on KakaoTalk  ›  Call Us  ›  Directions  ›

By correcting how you open your eyes,Humanity's Forehead Lift (Brow Lift) Restores a Natural LookAs the eyelids grow heavier, you unconsciously use your forehead muscles to open your eyes. Over time, this habit deepens forehead wrinkles and frown lines between the brows, and can lead to eye fatigue and a tired, heavy look. At Humanity, our forehead liftlifts a sagging forehead and brows to ease the effort of opening your eyes and to restore upper-face balance and a natural look.Why Choose Humanity for a Forehead LiftPoint 1Forehead Lift with Bone Tunnel Fixation for More Stable SupportAt Humanity Plastic Surgery Clinic, we value natural results that take your facial movement and balance into account, rather than simply lifting as much as possible. Bone tunnel fixation aims for a stable lift based on secure tissue fixation, and we use it only after carefully considering each patient's condition.Step 1Creating the Bone TunnelsWe create tiny tunnelsin the forehead bone.Step 2Passing the SuturesWe pass the sutures from the tissue to be liftedthrough the tunnels in the bone.Step 3Securing the TissueWe anchor the tissue to the bone for a stablelifting effect.What Is Bone Tunnel Fixation?Bone TunnelingBone tunnel fixation is a forehead lift fixation method in which small tunnels are created in the skull bone to anchor the sagging tissue directly. It secures the tissue stably without relying on separate metal or absorbable fixation devices, and it is a technique that requires precise skill and extensive experience.Point 2Precise Surgery Performed EndoscopicallyBone tunnel fixation is a procedure that requires extensive experience and precise technique. Using an endoscope to see nerves and blood vessels directly, we perform the forehead lift with skilled technique, precision, and a focus on safety.Forehead Reduction Lift (Hairline Lowering): A Smaller Forehead and a Lifted LookThis technique lifts the forehead while moving the hairline to a suitable position, based on the height of your forehead and the shape of your hairline.Rather than simply making the forehead smaller, it is important to consider your overall facial proportions and hairline together to create a natural, balanced forehead contour.Who Is a Good Candidate?· People who tense their forehead to open their eyes, or whose forehead wrinkles are deepening· People whose eyelids feel heavy and whose eyes are hard to open as the forehead and brows sag· People who want to improve deep forehead wrinkles and frown lines between the brows together· People who want to regain a natural, youthful look with less concern about scarringProcedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment, Down to Why You Strain to Open Your EyesWe check your brow position, forehead height, wrinkle pattern, and hairline to decide the right extent of surgery for you.Step 2 Custom Design Based on Your Facial ProportionsWe plan the incision location and design the extent of the lift with your hairline and hair direction in mind.Step 3 Precise Endoscopic Forehead LiftUsing an endoscope to see nerves and blood vessels directly, we release the tissue and then secure the sagging tissue firmly with bone tunnel fixation.Step 4 Premium Recovery Care to Complete Your ResultWe check your swelling and healing and continue to monitor your brow position and incision sites to support a stable recovery.Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 2 hoursAnesthesiaIV sedationPain LevelLevel 2 (varies by individual)Follow-Up VisitsAbout 3–4 visitsSuture Removal7–10 daysFrequently Asked QuestionsQ. Does a forehead lift also improve forehead wrinkles and frown lines?- A forehead lift corrects a sagging forehead and brows and can also help soften wrinkles on the forehead and between the brows. Depending on the depth and condition of the wrinkles, additional treatment may be needed.Q. Will my brows end up too high, or will my look change?- We adjust the position of your forehead and brows only as much as needed, aiming for a natural, not overdone, look. We plan surgery around your facial proportions, brow position, and expressions.Q. Will there be a scar or a change in my hairline?- We plan the incisions to sit mainly within the hair so the scars are hard to see. We aim for a natural result that respects your hairline and hair direction, though results vary from person to person.Q. Can I have a forehead lift if my forehead is high?- Yes. We plan the incision location and the extent of the lift based on your forehead height and hairline. If needed, we can use a technique that also takes the hairline into account.A natural liftstarts with finding the cause.Correcting droopy eyelids alone does not solve every problem.We need to analyze your forehead, brows, and even how you habitually open your eyes to decide the most suitable procedure for you.At Humanity Plastic Surgery Clinic, an accurate diagnosis by a Korean board-certified plastic surgeon can help you achieve a natural, comfortable change.  Book on NAVER  ›  Chat on KakaoTalk  ›  Call Us  ›  Directions  ›

Not a brow raise,but a Sub-Brow Lift That Restores Balance Between Your Eyes and BrowsAging affects more than the skin. As the eyelids grow heavier and the brows descend, you start using your forehead muscles to open your eyes, and your face can look more tired and heavy than before. At Humanity, our sub-brow liftfocuses on creating eyes that open comfortably, without excessive pulling and while preserving your natural eye shape and expression.Why Choose Humanity for a Sub-Brow LiftPoint 1Incision Just Below the Brow, Designed with Scarring in MindOur sub-brow lift is performed through an incision along the lower edge of the eyebrow, which helps keep the scar less visible and supports a natural recovery.We design a minimal incision, only as much as you need, based on how much your eyelids droop, the position and shape of your brows, the balance of your eyes, and the amount of excess skin.Point 2Structural Correction That Considers How Your Eyes OpenWe correct stretched skin, tissue, and even muscle to take weight off the eyelids for a natural, comfortable look.Improving droopy eyelids:Sub-Brow Lift vs. Upper BlepharoplastyEven when the eyelids droop in the same way, the cause can be different.Droopy eyelids can be improved effectively by choosing the right technique for your eyelid condition and eye shape.VSSub-Brow LiftUpper BlepharoplastyIncision SiteLower edge of the eyebrowAlong the eyelid crease of the upper eyelidMain Area ImprovedSagging upper eyelid skin, especially at the outer sideSagging upper eyelid skin and, if needed, muscle and fatKey FeaturesImproves sagging skin while minimizing changes to your existing eye shapeCan correct eyelid sagging and the eyelid crease at the same timeScar LocationIncision line below the eyebrowIncision line along the eyelid crease A sub-brow lift focuses on improving sagging skin while preserving your existing eye shape and eyelid crease as much as possible, whereas upper blepharoplasty is a procedure that can correct both eyelid sagging and the eyelid crease.Who Is a Good Candidate?· People who keep tensing their forehead to open their eyes· People whose eyes feel heavier and more closed-in than before· People who are often told they look tired or sleepy in photos· People who want to regain a naturally bright, alert lookProcedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment of the Aging Eye AreaWe look beyond eyelid drooping, analyzing brow position, forehead movement, and eyelid-opening strength to plan the most suitable technique.Step 2 Custom Design That Preserves Your Natural LookWe design a natural, understated eye shape and brow position based on your facial proportions and existing eye shape.Step 3 Correction That Considers How Your Eyes OpenWe aim for a natural, comfortable result by considering your eyelid-opening strength, brow position, and overall facial balance.Step 4 Premium Recovery Care to Complete Your ResultAfter surgery, we check your swelling and healing and guide you through follow-up care so your result settles in naturally.Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 1 hourAnesthesiaIV sedationPain LevelLevel 1 (varies by individual)Follow-Up VisitsAbout 2–3 visitsSuture Removal5–7 daysFrequently Asked QuestionsQ. How is a sub-brow lift different from upper blepharoplasty?- A sub-brow lift focuses on improving sagging skin below the brows while naturally keeping your existing eye shape. Upper blepharoplasty corrects sagging skin and tissue of the upper eyelid and, if needed, can also improve the eyelid crease. The right procedure depends on how much your brows and eyelids sag.Q. Will a sub-brow lift change my appearance a lot?- Rather than dramatically changing your eyes, a sub-brow lift naturally softens the heavy, tired look caused by sagging. We design it to preserve your natural look, taking into account your existing eye shape and facial balance.Q. Will the scar be very visible?- Because the incision follows the lower edge of the brow, you may see some redness or swelling at first. This gradually settles over time, and the degree of scarring varies with each person's skin and healing process.Q. Could my eyes end up looking too lifted or harsh?- A sub-brow lift does not simply pull the brows upward. We consider the position of your brows and eyelids, your existing eye shape, and your facial balance, aiming for a natural, not overdone, look.The first step to restoring your natural lookbegins with an accurate diagnosis.Choosing the right eyelid rejuvenation procedure for you starts with an accurate analysis of the cause, from drooping eyelids and brow position to how you habitually open your eyes.

Reducing unwanted fat,for a balanced body contour that fits your shapeRather than simply lowering your weight, we closely analyze your body shape and how fat is distributed in each area, then reduce unwanted fat to create a natural body contour. At Humanity, our liposuctionstarts with a close look at the amount and distribution of fat, skin elasticity, your overall body shape, and left-right balance. We plan the areas and extent you need, and remove fat evenly to create a natural body contour.Why Choose Humanity for LiposuctionPoint 1Precise Analysis of Your Areas of ConcernWe closely check the amount and distribution of fat in the areas you want to treat, your skin elasticity, and the shape of the surrounding areas. Combining body composition analysis with the InBody 270S and our medical team’s assessment, we pinpoint exactly which areas need improvement.Point 2Body Contour Design Based on Your Overall ProportionsWe do not stop at reducing fat in one area. We also consider how it connects with the surrounding areas, such as the waist, abdomen, hips, and thighs. Based on your overall body shape and left-right balance, we decide where to remove fat and where to leave it, to design a natural silhouette.Point 3Precise Removal of Only the Fat You NeedRather than removing as much fat as possible, we precisely identify where fat is concentrated and where there is unwanted volume, then selectively remove only as much fat as your body needs, to minimize tissue damage.Why two people of the same weightcan look so differentBody shape is not determined by weight alone. Depending on where and how much fat has built up, how fat is distributed in each area, and your skin elasticity and muscle mass, body contours can look different even at the same weight.•  Fat concentrated in specific areasSpecific areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or arms can look thick, throwing off the balance of your overall shape.•  Uneven fat on the left and rightDifferences in fat or shape between the two sides can make your contours look asymmetrical.•  Good skin elasticityAfter fat is reduced, the skin can naturally contract, so you can expect a slimmer contour.Areas We TreatArms / UnderarmsFlanks / WaistAbdomenThighsButtocks / SaddlebagsWho Is a Good Candidate?·  People with especially large fat deposits in specific areas·  People with stubborn fat that is hard to improve with diet and exercise alone·  People who want to refine the contours of the abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, or other areas·  People more interested in improving their overall body contour than their weight·  People who feel certain areas stand out when they are dressedLiposuction Procedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment of Body Shape and Fat DistributionWe take a comprehensive look at the amount of fat, how it is distributed in each area, skin elasticity, and body shape to determine which areas need improvement and how much fat to remove.Step 2 Custom Design for Your Body ShapeConsidering the shape of the areas you want to treat, how they connect with surrounding areas, and your overall body shape, we carefully design how much fat to remove and a natural body contour.Step 3 Even, Careful Fat RemovalMatched to your fat distribution and the features of each area, we remove unwanted fat within the planned range to reduce surface irregularities and left-right imbalance, for a smooth contour.Step 4 Follow-Up and Recovery CareAfter surgery, we closely check swelling, bruising, your skin condition, and changes in the treated areas, and manage a steady recovery based on your progress.Liposuction Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 2 hoursAnesthesiaIV sedationFollow-Up VisitsAbout 1–3 visitsSuture RemovalAround 7 daysReturn to Daily ActivitiesAfter about 3–7 daysFrequently Asked QuestionsQ. Will liposuction make me lose a lot of weight?The goal of liposuction is to improve your body contour by directly removing fat from specific areas, rather than to lose weight. So it is better to focus on changes in the circumference and silhouette of the treated areas than on changes in weight.Q. Does liposuction mean I won’t gain weight again?Fat cells removed by liposuction do not grow back, but the remaining fat cells can get larger, so it is important to keep your weight stable after surgery.Q. Does removing more fat give a better figure?No. Removing too much fat can cause surface irregularities or an unbalanced body contour. It is important to remove fat evenly, only where needed, based on your body shape, skin elasticity, and fat distribution.Q. Can my skin sag after liposuction?How much the skin contracts after surgery can vary with skin elasticity, the amount of fat, the extent of surgery, and other factors. That is why it is important to check skin elasticity and sagging before surgery and plan the right extent of surgery for you.Reducing unwanted fat,designing a contour that fits your bodyWhat matters in liposuction is not simply removing a lot of fat.What matters is checking where fat is concentrated, how elastic your skin is, and how each area connects, then finding the extent of fat removal and the contour that fit your body.  Book on NAVER  ›  Chat on KakaoTalk  ›  Call Us  ›  Directions  ›

Tightening a loose, sagging abdomenfor a firmer, smoother abdominal contourA thick or sagging belly is not always just a matter of too much fat. When the skin of the abdomen has stretched and lost elasticity, a tummy tuck can improve sagging that liposuction alone cannot easily correct. At Humanity, our tummy tuckbegins with a comprehensive assessment of skin laxity, the amount and distribution of fat, and how much the abdominal wall has loosened. We then plan the extent of correction to suit your abdominal shape and degree of sagging, for a firmer, smoother abdominal contour.Why Choose Humanity for a Tummy TuckPoint 1Correction Tailored to Your AbdomenWe take a comprehensive look at skin laxity, the amount of fat, and how loose the abdominal wall is, then decide which areas need treatment and how much, and correct them to suit your abdomen.Point 2Careful Surgery to Minimize Tissue DamageBecause a tummy tuck involves a large area of tissue, we use careful dissection to minimize tissue damage and correct only the tissue that needs it. We also close the incision carefully so the skin is not pulled too tight, with a smooth abdominal contour and stable scar healing in mind.Why your belly sticks out:it is not just about fatA thick or sagging belly is not always just a matter of too much fat. The shape of the abdomen and how far it protrudes can vary with the subcutaneous fat, loose skin, and the condition of the abdominal wall.•  Excess fatWhen a lot of fat builds up in the abdomen, the whole belly can look thick and rounded.•  Loose skinPregnancy or rapid weight changes can stretch the abdominal skin and reduce its elasticity.•  Loose abdominal wallWhen the abdominal wall that supports the tissue has loosened, or the rectus abdominis muscles have separated, the belly can push forward even without much fat.Mini vs. Full Tummy TuckMini Tummy TuckWhen loose skin or stretch marks are concentrated in the lower bellyWe lift the skin only where needed, mainly below the belly button, and remove the loose skin. When needed, we also tighten the lower abdominal wall to improve sagging and bulging of the lower belly. Compared with a full tummy tuck, the incision and scar are relatively short.Full Tummy TuckWhen loose skin or stretch marks extend across the whole abdomenWe lift the skin across the entire abdomen, remove loose skin and fat, and tighten the abdominal wall when needed to improve the shape and contour of the whole abdomen.Who Is a Good Candidate?·  People whose abdominal skin has stretched and sagged after pregnancy·  People left with excess abdominal skin after major weight loss·  People whose lower belly skin folds over or sags significantly·  People with abdominal sagging that liposuction alone cannot easily improve·  People who want a firm, smooth abdominal contourTummy Tuck Procedure StepsStep 1 Detailed Assessment of Your AbdomenWe take a comprehensive look at the amount of fat, skin laxity, skin elasticity, and the condition of the abdominal wall to determine the extent of correction and the surgical approach you need.Step 2 Custom Design for Your AbdomenConsidering how much your abdomen sags, your body type, and how skin and fat are distributed, we carefully plan how much skin and fat to remove and how much of the abdominal wall to tighten.Step 3 Precise Correction of Loose Skin and the Abdominal WallWe remove the loose skin and fat where needed and tighten the abdominal wall as much as its laxity requires, for a firmer, smoother abdominal contour.Step 4 Follow-Up and Recovery CareAfter surgery, we closely check swelling, how the incision is healing, and how your abdominal contour is changing, and manage a steady recovery based on your progress.Tummy Tuck Procedure DetailsLength of ProcedureAbout 4 hoursAnesthesiaIV sedationFollow-Up VisitsAbout 3–4 visitsSuture RemovalAfter about 14 daysPain LevelLevel 3Frequently Asked QuestionsQ. How is liposuction different from a tummy tuck?- Liposuction removes fat that has built up in specific areas to improve abdominal volume and body contour. A tummy tuck, on the other hand, removes excess loose skin and fat and, when needed, also tightens the abdominal wall to improve the shape of the abdomen. So when skin sagging is pronounced or the abdominal wall has loosened, liposuction alone may not give the improvement you want.Q. My belly sags and sticks out a lot after pregnancy. Can a tummy tuck help?- After pregnancy, the abdominal skin can stretch, and the abdominal tissue and wall can loosen. When sagging skin and a protruding belly appear together, it is important to check not only the skin and fat but also the abdominal wall, and plan the correction you need.Q. Should I lose weight before a tummy tuck?- A tummy tuck is not a weight-loss procedure. Large weight changes in the future can affect your abdominal contour after surgery, so it is best to plan surgery once your weight has been stable.Q. Will a tummy tuck leave a scar?- A tummy tuck requires an incision to remove loose skin, so it can leave a scar. We decide the incision location and length based on your degree of sagging and body type, and plan it so it can be hidden by underwear or a swimsuit as much as possible.Reducing unwanted fat,designing a contour that fits your bodyWhat matters in liposuction is not simply removing a lot of fat.What matters is checking where fat is concentrated, how elastic your skin is, and how each area connects, then finding the extent of fat removal and the contour that fit your body.  Book on NAVER  ›  Chat on KakaoTalk  ›  Call Us  ›  Directions  ›
