Best Facelift Clinics in Seomyeon, Busan: 5 Clinics to Compare

A facelift is also very different from treatments such as Ultherapy or Thermage. Surgical lifting can involve deeper tissues and removal or repositioning of excess skin, while non-surgical lifting generally aims for more modest tightening without comparable surgical recovery.

1. T&T Plastic Surgery

T&T currently places facial lifting among its signature areas.

Its public program includes Mini-T lifting with customizable incision lengths, Zero-T lifting, double-chin lifting, neck lifting and male lifting options. The clinic describes Mini-T lifting as an incision-based procedure intended to reposition sagging tissue while keeping the operative area more limited than a conventional larger facelift.

T&T may therefore be especially useful to compare if you are considering a smaller surgical lifting procedure rather than automatically moving directly to a full facelift.

Worth asking about:

• Mini facelift
• Limited-incision lifting
• Lower-face sagging
• Jowls
• Double-chin treatment
• Neck lifting
• Whether a full facelift would be more appropriate

2. S-Class Plastic Surgery

S-Class currently publishes dedicated information about facelift surgery involving both sagging skin and the deeper SMAS layer.

Its recent facelift guidance discusses postoperative swelling, incision areas around the ear and typical staged recovery following surgical facelift.

That makes S-Class a useful clinic to include when comparing true surgical lifting rather than only laser or thread-based rejuvenation.

Questions to ask:

• How much SMAS work is planned?
• Where will the incision extend?
• Is a full or limited facelift more appropriate?
• Is neck lifting required?
• When are sutures normally removed?
• How is scar management handled?

3. Ellumina Cell Clinic

Ellumina publishes one of the clearest current facelift menus among central Seomyeon clinics.

Its surgical anti-aging program currently lists facelift, neck lift, combined cheek-and-neck lift and full-face lifting, as well as forehead lifting and combinations involving lower-eyelid surgery.

The clinic is located inside Lotte Hotel Busan, which may be convenient for patients staying in Seomyeon during recovery.

Ellumina can therefore be useful when comparing whether facial aging should be treated as an isolated lower-face problem or as a combination involving the face, neck, forehead or eyelids.

4. Newline Plastic Surgery

Newline is a board-certified plastic-surgery practice in central Seomyeon that operates surgical plastic surgery and non-surgical aesthetic treatment within the same medical institution.

Its publicly documented lifting program currently focuses heavily on Ultherapy Prime, Thermage FLX, XERF, Shurink, Onda and other non-surgical treatments, together with PDO and Aptos thread lifting. The clinic states that when non-surgical treatment cannot reasonably achieve the patient's goal, a surgical consultation pathway is available.

However, because a dedicated current surgical-facelift page could not be verified, patients specifically seeking facelift surgery should first confirm:

• Whether surgical facelift is currently performed
• Which surgeon performs the operation
• Whether mini and full facelift options are available
• Whether neck lifting can be combined
• Which deeper tissue layers are addressed

5. ABC Plastic Surgery

ABC is an established plastic-surgery clinic near Seomyeon Station.

Its current official channel promotes anti-aging surgery/programs and V-line rejuvenation, alongside its other cosmetic procedures.

However, the currently accessible public material does not clearly identify a dedicated surgical facelift menu. ABC can therefore be included as a consultation option, but prospective facelift patients should confirm whether full facelift, mini facelift or neck lift surgery is currently performed.

Surgical Facelift vs Non-Surgical Lifting

These should not be treated as interchangeable procedures.

Surgical facelift: usually intended for more significant facial tissue descent and excess skin.

Mini facelift: usually involves a more limited surgical field or incision and may suit selected patients with less advanced sagging.

Thread lifting: uses implanted threads to reposition tissue without traditional facelift surgery.

Ultrasound or RF lifting: treatments such as Ultherapy or Thermage use energy to produce tissue contraction and collagen remodeling without incisions.

The appropriate option depends on the amount and location of sagging, age alone being an unreliable decision criterion.

Facelift FAQ

What is SMAS facelift surgery?

The SMAS is a fibromuscular tissue layer beneath the skin. Many modern facelift approaches address deeper supporting tissues rather than relying solely on pulling the skin.

Is a mini facelift better than a full facelift?

Not necessarily. A smaller operation may be appropriate for limited lower-face sagging, while more advanced facial and neck laxity may require a broader operation.

Can a facelift improve the neck?

Sometimes, but facial and neck aging should be evaluated separately. Some patients require additional neck-lift or platysma treatment.

How should I choose a facelift surgeon?

Compare the surgeon's diagnosis, incision plan, deeper-tissue strategy, scar placement, anesthesia, recovery protocol, revision policy and examples of patients with similar anatomy.
