Distinguishing Between Surgical and Non-Surgical Facelift
Currently, there are many different facelift methods on the market. They are divided into two main groups: non-surgical and surgical.
What Is a Non-Surgical Facelift?
Unlike surgery, this method does not involve cutting but applies modern technology to improve sagging skin, prevent aging from within, and make the skin fresher and smoother. This facelift method offers many significant benefits:
- Clearly reduces wrinkles at a lower cost compared to surgical facelift
- Quick recovery time (in some cases, normal activities can be resumed immediately after treatment without much downtime)
- No pain, no scars, no deep tissue damage
What Is Surgical Facelift?
This is a minor surgical procedure that tightens the skin and lifts facial and neck muscles that are sagging and loose. During the procedure, doctors make a small incision from the hairline to behind the ear using specialized aesthetic tools. Through this incision, the doctor separates the skin from the muscle layer, tightens it, removes excess skin, then fixes the facial muscles and connective tissues. Finally, the incision is closed with absorbable sutures.
Among these two main groups of facelift methods, each group includes various techniques with different advantages and disadvantages, detailed as follows:
4 Most Popular Non-Surgical Facelift Methods
1. Facelift with Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a facelift method that exfoliates the skin surface using a dermabrasion device to regenerate a new epidermal structure, making the skin smoother and more radiant.
Advantages:
- Helps tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles, and brighten the complexion
- Improves melasma, acne scars, tightens pores, and prevents blackheads
- Deeply cleans the skin by removing oil, dead cells, and dirt, keeping pores clear
- Regenerates skin structure and helps reduce pigmentation, dark spots, and freckles
Disadvantages:
This method may cause some side effects such as:
- Redness and irritation, especially for sensitive skin (usually subsides after a few hours)
- Increased skin sensitivity, requiring sun protection
- Risk of infection if not properly cared for
2. Facelift with Microneedling
This is a common facelift method using tiny needles to create micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating natural collagen production, tightening pores, and improving skin elasticity.

- Reduces pigmentation and acne scars
- Enhances absorption of skincare products
Disadvantages:
- May cause skin irritation and redness
- Possible bleeding and bruising

3 Surgical Facelift Methods
1. Endoscopic Facelift Surgery
This is a minor facelift procedure combining AI camera technology (to identify aging muscle areas) and endoscopic lifting to remove excess fat, loose skin, and sagging on the face. Endoscopic facelift surgery is gentle, painless, scar-free, and results can last up to 10 years after one procedure.
Advantages:
- Prevents aging
- Improves facial skin, making it firmer and more contoured
- Removes wrinkles and double chin, reshaping facial structure
- Quick procedure and recovery with visible results
Disadvantages:
This method is recommended for individuals in good health without underlying conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Customers should thoroughly check their health indicators before surgery.
2. Facelift with Collagen Thread Lift
Thread lift facelift is a non-invasive rejuvenation method that inserts biological threads deep under the skin. These threads anchor into the dermis, creating a support structure to lift and tighten sagging areas, making the face firmer and more defined.
Advantages:
- Improves sagging skin and muscles
- Regenerates cells and enhances elasticity
- Stimulates natural collagen production
- Safe, painless, non-invasive
Disadvantages:
Results are short-term, lasting only 1–3 years
3. Mini Facelift Surgery
Mini facelift is often recommended for tightening the lower face, cheeks, and neck, providing a youthful appearance. This minor surgery involves a small incision of about 5–6 cm from the hairline to behind the ear, suitable for mild aging cases.
Advantages:
- Significantly improves wrinkles, aging, and sagging
- Painless, no complications, no health impact
- Shorter recovery time compared to full facelift
- Results last from 5–10 years
Disadvantages:
- Less effective for severe sagging
- Not permanent, requiring follow-up according to doctor’s schedule
