Plus-Up Lifting
PLUS-UP FACE LIFT
Suitable for those who need overall
lifting,
such as sagging after contouring or
orthognathic surgery,
but don’t require incisions
as extensive as a full facelift.
Sagging after contouring surgery, sagging after orthognathic surgery, or skin laxity caused by rapid weight loss.
Recommended for those with complex sagging regardless of age, when full facelift-level dissection and incision are not necessary.
Face lift 01.
Uneven contours, sagging after contouring surgery
Procedures involving bone work, such as contouring or orthognathic surgery, can lead to gradual sagging of the skin and underlying tissues over time.
PLUS-UP Lifting repositions sagging skin to its original position and removes excess skin to match the reduced facial volume after bone surgery, restoring the natural facial contour.
Face lift 02.
Loss of volume with age, sagging skin?
For those with pronounced sagging due to skin characteristics, or concerns about volume loss in the mid and lateral cheeks with downward sagging, thread lifting or mini lifting may have limitations.
When a full facelift feels burdensome and mini lifts, laser treatments, or thread lifting do not provide sufficient results, PLUS-UP Lifting offers a way to restore a more youthful appearance.
Face lift 03.
Dissection, incision, and retaining ligaments in PLUS-UP Lifting
During separation of the skin and SMAS layer, nerves are carefully preserved and retaining ligaments are precisely released, followed by meticulous dissection.
Since precise suturing begins with proper incision design, Director Shin Dong-woo follows PLANET’s signature incision method tailored to each ear shape and performs wide sub-SMAS dissection.
Face lift 04.
PLUS-UP Lifting procedure, Dual Plane
Unlike the deep plane technique, the dual plane approach involves dissection of the skin, SMAS, and deeper layers.
While the deep plane lifts the skin and SMAS together, the dual plane technique allows them to be repositioned in different directions.
This method enables precise repositioning of the skin and SMAS according to each patient’s facial structure and is effective for addressing deeper sagging.
By combining the strong and long-lasting effects of the deep plane technique with the precise control of the dual plane approach, Director Shin Dong-woo delivers PLANET’s customized facelift results tailored to each patient, achieving natural outcomes.

Recovery expertise—
Why Planet’s 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, enabling faster recovery.
Face lift 06.
Concerns about scars, PLANET is with you
Director Shin Dong-woo preserves the natural ear shape by carefully considering skin tension, as reducing tension is essential to minimizing visible scars.
An incision is made behind the tragal cartilage, leaving only the minimum amount of skin without restricting movement, followed by skin excision to maintain the original ear shape.
