Precise design backed by case experience for an ideal facial line
The total facelift, with its powerful lifting effect, is suitable for those who are considering a full-fledged aging treatment for the neck and face as a whole. On the other hand, the face is a sensitive area with a high concentration of nerves and blood vessels, and because the skin is peeled and lifted, proper knowledge and experience are essential. If the skin is not peeled and lifted sufficiently, the desired effect will not be achieved. On the other hand, if the skin is lifted excessively, there is a risk of unnatural tightness.
At Bianca Clinic, we have performed many lifting procedures and surgeries, including the Total Face Lift, and our skilled physicians are well versed in anatomy and are in charge of the procedure. After accurately assessing your facial structure, sagging condition, skin, and fat thickness, we will propose a custom-made design that best fits your incision line and the extent of the peeling. For those with severe sagging symptoms, we can also offer the SMAS facelift approach, which is expected to have a more powerful lifting effect. Please feel free to contact us for a consultation so that we can provide you with a treatment plan that meets your concerns and budget.

CHARACTERISTICSWhat is a Total Face Lift?
A total facelift is a type of lifting procedure that raises and fixes sagging skin. There are various types of face lift procedures, but the main feature of this procedure is that the excess skin on the face and neck is removed and directly lifted.
The facial contours, cheeks, mouth, and even the neck can be approached at the same time to reduce deep wrinkles, laugh lines, marionette lines, and puffiness around the mouth and face lines caused by aging, leading to a more youthful facial impression.
High lifting effect over a long period of time
A total facelift is a procedure in which sagging skin is excised and reconstructed. Because it works directly on the root cause of sagging skin caused by aging, it aims to essentially improve wrinkles and sagging skin, rather than just making superficial changes. A high degree of lifting effect can be achieved with a single treatment, and the effect is said to be long-lasting. This procedure is also suitable for those who wish to achieve a full-fledged improvement in sagging skin, as there is no need to repeat the procedure in a short period of time.
Incisions are made at the hairline and around the ears, so scars are less noticeable.
Total facelift incisions are usually made in areas that are less noticeable in daily life, such as the hairline, inside the head, and around the ears. Therefore, the scars are not visible from the front and will blend in naturally over time.
Swelling, redness, and internal bleeding may occur after the surgery, but swelling around the eyes, nose, and mouth, which are in the center of the face, is rare, and most cases occur around the ears and cheeks where the incision was made. In particular, patients with long hair can easily hide the swelling with their hair during the downtime, and it is difficult for others to notice that they have undergone the procedure.
Benefits

Addresses signs of aging on the entire face and neck
It approaches the skin of both the face and neck and works comprehensively against the signs of aging.
Facial contouring can also be used to create a small face effect.
The elimination of firmness and sagging of the skin will also help to clean up the facial lines and make the face appear smaller.

RECOMMENDED POINTSWho is a good candidate for a total facelift?
A total facelift, which raises the sagging skin of the face and neck, can be expected to have a firm lifting effect on the entire face, making it a suitable procedure for those who want to fundamentally improve sagging skin and wrinkles caused by aging. Relatively non-invasive and minimally invasive lifting procedures such as Hyf and thread lift are also options, but those with severe skin and fascia laxity may not experience sufficient change. For those who desire greater change and long-term improvement, a total facelift that can work extensively in a single procedure may be the right choice.
It may also be a useful option for those who also have skin texture concerns, as the skin is lifted and the surface firmness is increased, which may reduce the appearance of pores and acne scars. However, since indications vary from person to person, it is important to see a physician and choose the method that is best suited for you.
Postoperative course and downtime
The postoperative course of a total facelift varies from person to person, but swelling and internal bleeding may be more pronounced for about 3 to 4 days after the procedure. In most cases, swelling will settle down after about a week and internal bleeding after about 10 days. Pain is generally controllable with prescription painkillers.
The lifting effect may be felt early in the postoperative period, but it may take three to six months for the tissue to settle and the result to stabilize. We recommend that you visit the hospital for suture removal about one week after the surgery and follow-up observation one month later.
How to avoid prolonged downtime?
Bianca requires the patient to wear a face band for one week after surgery to reduce swelling and swelling. The band should be worn as much as possible, except when showering or washing the face, and moderate pressure will prevent fluid retention and support a smooth recovery.
It is also important to spend time after the surgery to avoid prolonged downtime. Activities that stimulate blood circulation, such as strenuous exercise, saunas, and alcohol consumption, should be avoided for a certain period of time, as they may delay the recovery of scars and swelling. Additionally, using a pillow or other pillow at bedtime to elevate the position of the head is also helpful in preventing swelling. Taking care of the wound in accordance with the doctor's instructions and staying at rest will lead to a smooth recovery.
