The endoscopic facelift is one of Seoul’s most popular minimally invasive anti-aging procedures, especially for patients seeking a natural, youthful lift without the long scars of a traditional facelift.
UE Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul offers endoscopic lifting for patients who want subtle yet long-lasting facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

This page explains the procedure, benefits, ideal candidates, and why many overseas visitors—including Chinese-speaking patients—choose UE Plastic Surgery Clinic for facial lifting in Korea.

What Is an Endoscopic Facelift?

An endoscopic facelift uses a tiny camera and small hidden incisions to lift and reposition the deeper facial layers (SMAS).
Instead of long cuts around the ears, this approach uses 3–5 small incisions hidden in the hairline, making it ideal for patients wanting discreet, natural improvement.

Key Benefits

• Minimal visible scarring
• Faster recovery compared to traditional facelift
• Lifts sagging cheeks, midface, nasolabial folds, and jowls
• Tightens deeper facial structures for longer-lasting results
• Natural, youthful facial contour restoration
• Ideal for patients in their late 30s to 50s

How the Endoscopic Facelift Works at UE Plastic Surgery Clinic

UE uses a refined technique prioritizing structure, durability, and minimal visible scarring.

1. Small Hairline Incisions

Tiny openings are made within the scalp to avoid visible scars.

2. Endoscopic Camera Guidance

A small camera allows surgeons to see deep structures clearly while minimizing skin disruption.

3. SMAS Layer Lifting

The deeper layer of the face (SMAS) is gently lifted and fixed for long-lasting contour improvement.

4. Repositioning of Midface & Cheek Fat Pads

This restores cheek volume and reduces shadows around the nasolabial area.

5. Fixation for Stability

The lifted tissues are secured for firm, durable results.

6. Minimal Skin Tension

Because the lift comes from the deeper layers, the skin looks smooth and natural—not pulled.

Recovery After an Endoscopic Facelift

Recovery is generally faster than a traditional facelift.

Typical Timeline

• Bruising & swelling: mild to moderate, improves in 7–10 days
• Stitches removed: 7–10 days
• Return to daily activities: 5–7 days
• Return to work/travel: 7–10 days
• Final settling: 2–3 months

UE Plastic Surgery Clinic provides clear Chinese-language aftercare instructions for overseas patients.
