Babyface in Your Thirties is Possible

If you’ve already tried to lift the skin on your face with your hands in front of the mirror and noticed that it makes you look younger, my story is for you! I got some anti-aging procedures done at Regen plastic surgery 2 years ago and my results are still amazing.
I realized that if the skin became superfluous, it wouldn’t go anywhere and I had to do something with it. Back in 2015 I got my BA done at Regen, so once I decided on facelift, I already knew where and the most important to whom to go. My surgeon was Dr.Oh, I’m living in Seoul for quite a while and knew about him not only from forum reviews, but also from my friends. Regen is actually well known among locals and considered as one of the top plastic surgery hospitals, especially after tremendous transformations in “Let Me In”. The procedures I got were thread lift, fat transfer and botox.
I was thinking about lifting surgery, but during the consultation Dr.Oh explained that classic facelift at my age is a bit early and there were some other ways to get rid of sagging skin. We agreed upon thread lift and since I also wanted a baby-looking face but my cheeks were a bit sunken we decided to give my cheeks more volume through fat lifting, which also helped me to get rid of small wrinkles in nasolabial area. He inserted 20cc into my forehead and 4cc into cheeks from both sides. The rehabilitation was quite easy, as it was one of the less-invasive procedures. I didn’t feel any pain, just slight tension under the skin for about 1 week and gradually all alien feelings were totally gone. 2 days after the surgery I also got some treatments, which helped a lot with swelling and edemas.
The most noticeable part in Dr.Oh’s work is that just lifting looks a bit awkward to him and he likes to define facial contour, giving a V-line shape. Therefore, facial lines become more elegant and the result looks much better. I guess that’s the way the real professional approaches the work. His perception of beauty is unique that’s why the result looks very natural.
My work mainly connects with English speaking countries, so my Korean knowledge are very basic, but it wasn’t a big deal. It was very easy for me to both having a consultation and proceeding a surgery since Dr.Oh knows English and his pronunciation is quite good and I could understand him clearly. I also got an English-speaking assistant provided by Regen. She was very cute and helpful, as she explained the main part about post-op treatments and recommendations.
I know that thread lift gives only a temporary effect and fat most probably resolve with time, but for now I’m 100% satisfied and ready to proceed it all again.

Thank you for this post. You look amazing! I’m going to Korea next week and trying to figure out who to go to to consult for my nearly 50 yo mildly sagging jowls etc. I’ve thought of a thread lift vs face lift. Can I ask what kind of thread, there seem to be different kinds like nonresorbable that lasts longer but cheaper. Do you still have similar results after 2 years? May I ask about how old you are? Also, did you consider any other places or heard of any other good local ones? It seems the places catering to foreigners are more expensive, which is to be expected with the extra costs involved. Thanks for any info.

Hi! Thanks a lot. To achieve a long-lasting effect I inserted non-absorbable threads and mixed it with fat injections. There are lots of other places to proceed but I trust only verified hands :) I don’t remember what other clinics I took into consideration before breast augmentation but don’t think prices differ depending on from where the patient came from. One of my Korean friends got thread lift recently at regen and paid the same amount.

I’m hoping to go to Regen tomorrow! So I Know what to expect, do you remember about how much you paid? Did you bargain at all? Thanks for any tips!
June 7, 2018
the overall amount was about 5.5 mil KRW and they gave me a discount without bargaining even :) Look forward to see your results!

Did you have zygoma and jaw reduction not past?
September 5, 2018
I had :) but proceeded it at another hospital and had terrible sagging - one of the reasons why I proceeded threads

So amazing!!! Exactly what I am looking to do and my area of concern. You look spectacular. Thanks for sharing your experience. How many threads were inserted?
September 5, 2018

You looked cute before too abit of fat in cheeks gives a youthful baby look remember when you get older you will loose more fat and skin on face will say bc no cheek fat to hold up sagging face!
