A relative of mine recently had a facelift in Korea through Cloud Hospital and chose Dr. Tae-jo Kang at Yujin Plastic Surgery & Dermatology & Stem Cell Research Center. What stood out the most was how advanced and refined the techniques were compared to what we typically hear about with traditional facelifts. Instead of the older methods that mainly pull the skin tight, Dr. Kang used a more modern approach that targeted the deeper layers of the face—specifically the SMAS layer (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System). This made the results look more natural, with none of that overly “done” appearance.
What also impressed my relative was Dr. Kang’s use of regenerative techniques like stem cell therapy to support healing and improve skin quality. The downtime was shorter than expected, and the recovery process felt much smoother. They were back to their routine fairly quickly, and the results just kept improving over the weeks. The clinic staff was attentive, and everything—from the consultation to the aftercare—was well coordinated for international patients. It made a huge difference knowing they were in experienced hands using some of the most advanced facelift methods available.
