Facelift surgery in Seoul, Korea for international patients
Grand Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul has performed facelift surgery since 2004 and won the 2025 Brand of the Year award in the Face Lifting category. The clinic's main technique is the deep plane facelift, which lifts the skin, the SMAS muscle layer and the retaining ligaments together so results look natural and last longer than skin-only lifts.

Which facelift is right for me?
The right lift depends on where you are sagging, how much, and how much downtime you can take. The table below is a starting point; your surgeon confirms the plan after examining you in person.
| Procedure | Best for | Surgery time | Anesthesia |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deep plane facelift | Moderate to severe sagging of cheeks, jowls and neck | About 4 hours | General |
| Deep plane mini lift | Early to moderate sagging, loose jawline, younger patients | 2–3 hours | General |
| Neck lift | Loose neck skin, neck bands, fat under the chin | Planned with facelift | General |
| Forehead lift | Forehead lines, low or drooping brows | 30 min – 2.5 hours | IV sedation or general |
| Thread lift | Mild sagging, no time for surgery | 30 min – 1 hour | IV sedation |
| Ultherapy / Thermage | Skin tightening without surgery | About 1 hour | Numbing cream or sedation |
What makes Grand's facelift different
- Three layers, one operation. Grand lifts the retaining ligaments, the SMAS layer and the skin together instead of pulling skin alone, which is what causes a tight, “operated” look.
- Face and neck together. The deep plane facelift treats cheek, jowl and neck sagging in one surgery and sharpens the jawline.
- Hidden incisions. Incisions run inside the hairline and around and behind the ear.
- Anesthesiologist on site for every surgery, CCTV-monitored operating rooms and a real-name surgeon system. See the Grand Safety System.
- Built for travelers. Airport pick-up, hotel help, interpreters and a 7-day facelift package.
