As people age, the aging of the face and neck area is characterized by a decrease in skin elasticity (e.g., forehead lines, crow’s feet, nasolabial folds, etc.), wrinkle formation, and degenerative changes such as sagging of the face and neck area (e.g., sagging of the eyebrows and upper eyelids, sagging of the cheeks, goat cheeks, etc.). In addition to the skin, the important part of the sagging changes caused by gravity and degeneration are the tissues and structures on the deeper side of the skin, such as fat, fascia and muscles. Therefore, wrinkle reduction (commonly known as facelift) should not only remove wrinkles, but also tighten various tissue structures. The English term for wrinkle reduction is face lift. Wrinkle reduction technology has gone through more than 80 years, and is roughly divided into three stages: The first generation of wrinkle reduction: that is, just separating the subcutaneous, removing excess skin, tightening sutures. This method has long been abandoned in the plastic and cosmetic surgery circles of developed countries, because it is not enough to tighten the skin only. The effect of this technique is a two-way tightening, which lifts both the surface skin and the deep surface sagging fascia and muscle tendons. SMAS – Broad Neck Wrinkle Reduction has now become a safe and popular procedure; Third generation wrinkle reduction: called compound wrinkle reduction. If you or your friends and family want to have wrinkle reduction surgery, you should choose the second or third generation wrinkle reduction. So how can you predict that you will be given a more advanced wrinkle reduction procedure rather than just a facelift? We recommend the following methods: first, go to a regular cosmetic surgery facility for wrinkle reduction; second, find out if the surgeon is trained in standardized wrinkle reduction procedures.
