A SMAS facelift is one of the most powerful procedures for lifting and tightening the lower face, jawline, and midface. But facial aging doesn’t happen in just one area—it affects the entire face and neck, including the eyes, forehead, lips, and skin texture. That’s why The Plus Clinic in Seoul offers fully customized facial rejuvenation packages that combine SMAS facelift surgery with complementary procedures for a more harmonious and youthful transformation.
In this article, we explore how The Plus Clinic tailors multi-procedure facelifts for natural, balanced, and comprehensive results.
Why Combine Procedures?
Combining procedures can address multiple signs of aging in one treatment plan. Benefits include:
- Balanced results across the entire face, not just one lifted area
- Cost-effective surgical and anesthesia planning
- Single downtime instead of recovering from multiple surgeries
- More natural appearance, avoiding the “tight lower face, aging upper face” look
The Plus Clinic’s approach ensures aesthetic harmony, respecting your facial proportions and goals while minimizing overall recovery time.
Common Procedures Combined with SMAS Facelift at The Plus Clinic
1. Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty)
While a SMAS facelift improves sagging in the mid and lower face, a neck lift addresses:
- Loose skin and muscle bands under the chin
- Excess fat deposits in the neck
- Sagging jowls and undefined jawline
Why combine it?
A neck lift complements the SMAS lift by tightening the area beneath the jaw and blending the transition from face to neck. The Plus Clinic often performs both simultaneously for a seamless profile.
2. Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
A youthful face isn’t just about the jawline—it’s also about bright, open eyes. Eyelid surgery removes:
- Upper lid drooping
- Puffy bags under the eyes
- Tired or sad appearance
Why combine it?
Addressing the eye area alongside the SMAS facelift ensures that the upper face matches the rejuvenated lower face, avoiding age mismatch.
3. Fat Grafting (Autologous Fat Transfer)
As we age, we lose volume in the cheeks, temples, and under-eyes. Fat grafting restores that lost volume using your own purified fat.
Why combine it?
Even the most expertly lifted face can still look tired if it’s hollow. Fat grafting:
- Restores youthful fullness
- Improves skin quality due to stem cells in fat
- Creates soft, natural contours that complement the lift
The Plus Clinic frequently integrates fat grafting into facelift procedures for volumetric and structural rejuvenation.
4. Forehead or Brow Lift
A drooping brow can make the upper face look aged or angry. A brow lift elevates the forehead and opens up the eye area.
Why combine it?
When paired with a SMAS lift, a brow lift gives a complete refresh from forehead to jawline, particularly for patients with deep forehead lines or heavy upper eyelids.
5. Skin Rejuvenation Treatments
To enhance the surface quality of the skin after structural lifting, The Plus Clinic often recommends:
- Laser resurfacing to reduce wrinkles, sun damage, and age spots
- Ulthera or Thermage to stimulate collagen and refine texture
- Skin boosters and PRP therapy for hydration and glow
Why combine it?
While a facelift lifts and tightens, skin treatments smooth, refine, and brighten the canvas—creating the final polish for youthful skin.
6. Lip Lift or Lip Augmentation
Aging often leads to thinner lips and longer upper lip length. A lip lift or augmentation restores youthful lip proportions.
Why combine it?
A lifted face with aging lips can appear unbalanced. Lip procedures:
- Improve lip contour and projection
- Enhance smile aesthetics
- Harmonize the lower face with the lifted midface
