One Day
Lifting
A one-day fascia lift,
addressing sagging at its structural root.
Deep fascia lifting
The SMAS layer, which is the fundamental cause of sagging,
is powerfully lifted to maximize the lifting effect.
Minimal scarring
A small 2–3 cm incision
to minimize scarring
One-day treatment
No stitches required
transparent adhesive closure, no revisit needed

Accurate targeting of the SMAS layer
One day Lifting.
Sagging originates not at the skin surface,
but in the deep SMAS layer, the structural core that supports facial muscles and skin.
One Day Lifting directly lifts the SMAS layer,
delivering firm, stable lifting from the foundation.
With a minimal 2–3 cm incision, scarring and swelling are reduced,
while specialized sutures secure the SMAS layer for long-lasting results.
The incision is sealed with a transparent medical adhesive,
enabling immediate return to daily life—
with no additional aftercare required.
A facial line that weakens over time,
aging you see first.
frontal
As both jawlines collapse
and the outer contour loses its definition,
the facial line becomes uneven and distorted overall.
Side/45 degrees
A once-smooth jawline
and the outer contour gradually become blurred.
To correct facial lines weakened by aging
The skin’s internal support structure,
the SMAS layer
—why it matters.
The SMAS layer, located between fat and muscle, is the core structure that supports skin firmness.
With aging, collagen and elastin decrease, and gravity causes the SMAS to stretch and loosen.
Sagging occurs not only at the surface—
the entire support structure descends.
This is why surface-only lifting cannot last,
and sagging inevitably returns.
Fundamental improvement of sagging
Pulling the fascia layerThis is the key!
Firm lifting from the foundation,
4-layer lifting.
One-Day Lifting does not pull only the skin surface—
it performs 4-layer lifting from the epidermis and dermis
through the subcutaneous fat and down to the SMAS layer.
By lifting all skin layers together,
it delivers a firm, powerful, and stable lifting effect.
By precisely targeting the SMAS layer to correct deep sagging,
results with no compromise.
Before One Day Lifting Treatment
- Undefined Facial Line
- Irregular Facial Contours
- Unwanted lower-face sagging
- An aged-looking appearance
After One Day Lifting treatment
- Defined Facial Line
- Smoothly Refined Facial Contours
- Improvement of the lower face
- Younger-looking appearance

Dual fixation
Focused SMAS targeting,
One Day Lifting.
One Day Lifting focuses on the
SMAS layer—the root cause of sagging.
By directly lifting the SMAS layer,
it delivers more than temporary surface improvement—
achieving a core lifting effect that restores
the skin’s structural foundation.
It effectively corrects sagging along the outer contour line
and enhances the longevity of V-line results from thread lifting.
Focused dermal targeting,
V-line thread lifting.
V-line thread lifting, which precisely targets the dermal layer,
effectively improves sagging deep cheeks
and a drooping jawline caused by dermal laxity,
creating a slim, sharp V-line.
It delivers outstanding results in defining a clear V-line
from both frontal and side angles.
However, when sagging of the deep SMAS layer is severe,
results may decrease quickly—
therefore, we recommend combining the procedure
with One Day Lifting.
Retaining ligament release,
stronger lifting results.
If the retaining ligaments supporting the SMAS layer just beneath it are not released,
there is a clear limitation in effectively lifting the skin and SMAS layer.
In such cases, the lifted skin and SMAS are pulled downward again by these ligaments,
causing the lifting effect to fade prematurely.
One Day Lifting includes the precise release of these retaining ligaments,
allowing for a stronger lifting effect that lasts significantly longer.
What is a retainer?
Retaining ligaments extend from the bone through the muscle, SMAS, subcutaneous fat, and dermal layers,
acting as soft tissue structures that firmly support the skin
and play a crucial role in preventing sagging.
When these ligaments loosen with aging,
various signs of aging—such as skin sagging and wrinkles—begin to appear.
Half the incision, wider dissection.
Performing wide and deep internal dissection through a minimal incision
is a high-level technique that requires exceptional surgical expertise.
Based on this advanced precision,
ATOP Beauty Clinic achieves wide, deep internal dissection
through a minimal 2–3 cm incision
while carefully adjusting the depth and range of dissection
according to each patient’s skin thickness and facial bone structure.
Enhanced fixation,
simple transparent adhesive.
The transparent adhesive used at ATOP Beauty Clinic
safely protects the incision site and provides additional fixation.
It also eliminates the need for stitch removal,
so no return visit to the clinic is required.

One Day Lifting B&A

Q&A
One Day Llifting l frequently asked questions.
- They say that thread lifting and laser lifting
even works on the fascia…
How are they different to One Day Lifting? - In some laser lifting procedures, energy may reach the SMAS layer,
but this does not involve directly lifting or repositioning the SMAS itself.
Thread lifting can also reach the SMAS layer depending on the practitioner’s skill,
yet threads alone have limitations in lifting all skin layers.
In contrast, One Day Lifting directly dissects and lifts the SMAS layer,
addressing the root cause of sagging—
resulting in more definitive, longer-lasting lifting results.
- How long does the procedure take?
And how's the pain? - The procedure takes approximately 40–50 minutes,
and is performed under sedation anesthesia, ensuring minimal pain.
- How long do they last?
- Results generally last over one year,
though longevity may vary depending on individual skin type,
muscle activity, and lifestyle factors.
One Day Lifting
is recommended for...
- Those who want a fascia lift.
- Those who have sagging due to aging.
- Those who have an uneven facial line.
- Those who have tried thread lifting but didn't work.
- Those who feel the effects of laser lifting or thread lifting wear off quickly.
- Those who are concerned about the scars from the surgery.
- Those who need a quick return to daily life.
- Those who want something as simple as a Thread lifting procedure but with a definite effect like a facelift.
