Treatment Overview
The Firm & Lift Liquid Facelift is one of Korea’s most advanced non-surgical anti-aging treatments, designed to tighten sagging skin, restore youthful contours, and improve elasticity. Instead of surgical incisions, this procedure uses a combination of dermal fillers, collagen-stimulating injectables (Sculptra, Juvelook), and skin boosters (Rejuran, Nucleofill) to rejuvenate both skin structure and surface quality.
Korean dermatology clinics are leaders in liquid facelift techniques, applying multi-layer injection mapping to achieve natural lifting and firming effects. The result is a refreshed, youthful look—without the risks, scars, or downtime of traditional surgery.
