Beyond Skin Tightening: Full Facelift at id Hospital
Beyond Tightening
Full Facelift (FFL)
Hello, this is id Hospital.
As the seasons change—especially during the end and beginning of the year—many people begin to notice facial aging more clearly.
Cold, dry weather, increased indoor heating, accumulated fatigue, and gravity all accelerate skin laxity, making sagging and deep wrinkles more visible.
Unlike temporary lifting procedures or energy-based treatments that focus on surface-level tightening, a full facelift (FFL) is designed to address aging at its structural root.
By lifting not only the skin but also the underlying support layers, this procedure delivers the most dramatic, stable, and long-lasting rejuvenation.
For those seeking a noticeable yet natural-looking transformation—one that restores youthful contours rather than simply tightening the skin—id Hospital’s Full Facelift offers a refined surgical solution based on extensive clinical experience and advanced lifting techniques.
Why Full Facelift Now?
Many patients who visit id Hospital have already tried non-surgical lifting treatments such as lasers, ultrasound, or radiofrequency.
While these procedures can be effective for early signs of aging, they often reach a point where repeated sessions deliver diminishing results.
When sagging progresses beyond the skin and affects deeper support structures—such as the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments—energy-based treatments alone may no longer provide sufficient improvement.
At this stage, a full facelift becomes the most reliable option to reposition facial tissues, restore youthful contours, and achieve long-lasting results that non-surgical methods cannot offer.
If you are noticing that your facial shape looks heavier, folds appear deeper, or lifting treatments no longer meet your expectations, this may be the right time to consider a Full Facelift.

About Scarring & Safety
A common concern regarding facelift surgery is scarring.
At id Hospital, incision lines are carefully designed to follow the natural contours of the face—starting from the temple, running along the ear crease, and extending discreetly behind the ear and toward the neckline.
Because incisions are placed along natural folds and hair-bearing areas, scars tend to become well concealed over time.
In addition, meticulous suturing techniques and structured post-operative scar care help minimize visibility and support smooth healing.
As swelling subsides and tissues settle, most patients find that scars gradually fade and become difficult to notice in daily life.
