Planet Micro-Mini Lifting

Micro-Mini Face Lift

A minimal-incision lifting procedure without the use of threads.

Many micro-mini lifts involving an incision from the hairline to the upper ear use threads.

While traditional facelifts lift and fix the SMAS layer, Director Shin Dong-woo’s Micro-Mini Lifting is based on the temporal fascia and does not use threads.

Incision range and dissection range

Minimal incisions of only 2 to 3 cm may make scars less visible, but they are insufficient to correct mid-cheek sagging due to limited dissection and incision range.

Director Shin Dong-woo performs a 5 to 6 cm incision from within the hairline to the starting point of the ear, concealing the scar within the hairline while allowing for a wider dissection using a traditional lifting approach based on the temporal fascia.

Micro-Mini Lifting for mid-cheek sagging

Micro-Mini Lifting involves incisions only along the hairline, without incisions around the ear.

With Director Shin Dong-woo’s technique minimizing concerns about scarring,  Mini-Plus Lifting improves cheek sagging through an incision in front of the ear,  while Micro-Mini Lifting improves mid-cheek sagging without the use of threads.

Incision line concealed within the hairline

Micro-Mini Lifting involves a 5 to 6 cm incision along the hairline, keeping scars hidden and reducing concerns about  visible scarring for both men and women.

Micro-Mini Lifting procedure, Deep Plane

Unlike the dual plane technique, the deep plane method lifts the skin and underlying layer together,  making it suitable for those with mild sagging.

Using a single-layer dissection that lifts the skin and SMAS together, this method shortens surgery time, reduces swelling and bruising, and provides faster recovery with effective improvement.

Recovery expertise, why PLANET recovery is faster

Most facelifts involve dissection through the mid-subcutaneous layer to reduce surgery time.

In such cases, blood vessels in this layer may be damaged, and if the dissection is too close to the skin, it can cause unevenness or skin injury.

Director Shin Dong-woo at PLANET performs precise and even dissection just above the SMAS layer, with immediate hemostasis when bleeding occurs, allowing for faster recovery.

Expected benefits of Micro-Mini Lifting?

* Any temporary lifting of the outer eye corner is short-term,  and Micro-Mini Lifting does not cause a permanent upward change.
