Cervicofacial Lift in Seoul
A Cervicofacial Lift is a comprehensive surgical facial rejuvenation procedure that targets aging changes in both the lower face and neck. By lifting and repositioning sagging tissues across the face–neck unit, this procedure helps restore a smoother jawline, firmer neck contour, and more youthful facial balance.

What is Cervicofacial Lift ?
A Cervicofacial Lift is a surgical technique that combines elements of a facelift and neck lift into a single, integrated procedure. Rather than treating the face and neck separately, this approach addresses aging as a continuous process, improving contour and skin laxity across the lower face, jawline, and neck.

Swelling and bruising during the first 1–2 weeks
Gradual improvement in facial and neck contours
