When I reached my 50s, I felt limited with just cosmetics and lifting procedures in improving nasolabial folds and sagging jawline.
I tried Ultherapy and thread lifting, but as time passed, I felt they would sag again, so I searched a lot about facelift surgery reviews and recovery processes.
Particularly, cheek sagging, deep cheek volume loss, and jawline collapse were my biggest concerns, and I didn't want surgery that would pull too tightly and change my facial expression.
During consultation, the doctor explained in detail that rather than just pulling the skin, organizing the sagging tissue together would make it look natural and last longer, which gave me confidence.
Immediately after surgery, there was swelling and a pulling sensation, and initially my face felt a bit strange, but it gradually became more natural over time.
As the collapsed jawline was refined and the nasolabial folds and mouth corners sagging were improved, my entire face looks brighter, so I'm satisfied.
Most importantly, it's not a forced youthful-looking face, but a natural change as if returning to my face from a few years ago, which I really like.
Although it's not a surgery with a short recovery period, compared to repeating lifting treatments, facelift was a good fit for me since I wanted definite improvement.
