LONGEVITY: Dr. Byun warns against the quick fix methods that seem to “snatch” your face instantly.

In reality, though your face will look smooth and tight, over time the skin will follow the direction of gravity and droop— making you look even more contorted!

Dr. Byun’s method ensures longevity because he goes INSIDE and repositions the muscles back in place. That way, when you heal and age over time, you will STILL look like your younger, fresh self!

The Facelift You’ve Been Told to Fear... Was Just Done Wrong.

You’ve seen facelifts before — pulled, stretched, distorted.
But Byun’s facelift patients? Different.

Why? Because Dr. Michael Byun puts components back IN — not out, not pulled.
No tension. Just restoration.

Most celebrities ignore this one rule:
If you don’t put the aged layers back inside where they were before, anything you do will ruin you.

So why does Byun’s work age gracefully?
Because he doesn’t destroy what’s still alive with quick fix methods.

⚠️ Fat grafts lump and calcify.
⚠️ Fillers migrate, add weight, and sag.
⚠️ Lasers & RF kill viable cells.
⚠️ Threads = internal scarring.
⚠️ Deep plane & SMAS lifts flare the face outward.

A major component of good plastic surgery is not adding to or subtracting anything from the face. Continue reading to learn about how something as small as cutting away excess skin can majorly distort the face.

A sad, but common occurrence after cosmetic procedures is the loss of unique beauty and appearance. Many surgical patients tend to look the same over time due to poor surgeries, and quick fix "band aids" such as filler and fat grafts.
