Jawline Facelift in Seoul
A Jawline Facelift is a surgical facial rejuvenation procedure designed to improve definition along the jawline by addressing sagging skin, jowls, and loss of lower-face contour. This procedure focuses on restoring a sharper, more youthful jawline while maintaining natural facial balance.

What is Jawline Facelift ?
A Jawline Facelift is a targeted facelift procedure that focuses on the lower face, particularly the jawline and jowl area. It involves repositioning underlying tissues and removing excess skin to create a smoother, more defined jawline. Depending on individual needs, it may be performed alone or combined with other facelift or neck procedures.
How Jawline Facelift works
Facial and jawline assessment
Surgical planning based on skin laxity and structure
Incisions placed discreetly around the ear or hairline
Repositioning of deeper tissues and removal of excess skin
Closure with attention to natural contours
