Mid-face lift

In Korea, a mid-face lift, also known as cheek lift surgery, typically ranges from ₩4,500,000 to ₩9,000,000, depending on the clinic. It is advisable to request a detailed consultation for a more accurate estimate tailored to your needs.

The results of a cheek lift typically last 7 to 10 years, depending on individual factors such as skin elasticity, aging process, and lifestyle habits. Proper skincare and healthy living can help extend the longevity of the results.

No, a cheek lift (mid-face lift) is not the same as a traditional facelift. A cheek lift focuses on rejuvenating the mid-face and under eyes by lifting the cheeks, reducing nasolabial folds, and improving the Indian bands. In contrast, a traditional facelift primarily targets sagging in the lower face, including the jowls, jawline, and the smile lines as well.

Yes, during a mid-facelift, lower blepharoplasty is often performed together. Combining these procedures effectively addresses sagging cheeks and under-eye concerns while also minimizing recovery time since both procedures are performed through the same incision.

Typically, the incisions for a cheek lift are made along the lower lash line. The incisions are strategically placed to minimize visibility, allowing the scars to be concealed. With proper healing and post- operative care, the scars will gradually fade over time.

A good candidate for a mid-face lift is someone who:
• Has sagging or drooping in the middle part of the face, around the cheeks and under the eyes.
• Has deep nasolabial folds or smile lines.
• Has an aged or tired appearance due to volume loss or sagging in the mid-face.
• Has wrinkles on the lower eyelids.

The typical recovery time for a mid-face lift is approximately 2 to 4 weeks, during which bruising and swelling are common, and strenuous activities should be avoided. By the third week to a month, most swelling subsides, allowing patients to resume normal activities, including exercise. Full recovery and final results are typically achieved within 6 months to a year, as the tissues settle and heal completely.
