Can I have the elegant face and enviable figure of the middle-aged actress in the drama?

'Triple Management' for a naturally youthful look, voluminous breasts, and a slim figure with 'Stem Cell Facial and Breast Augmentation'

Quite a few middle-aged women look at the heroines in dramas and envy them, thinking, "I wish I had that kind of appearance." When they see actresses like Kim Hye-soo, who remains sexy despite having entered middle age, or the elegant Kim Hee-ae, they are reminded of the time they spent focusing solely on housekeeping and are sometimes overcome with sadness.

Skin elasticity is what completes an elegant facial line. No matter how beautiful a woman's features may be, she cannot defy gravity. A face that looks somewhat frail due to sunken cheeks and a sagging jawline is the main culprit that makes one look worn out by life, rather than projecting a sophisticated image.

After going through pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, the voluminous, beautiful breasts of maidenhood have long since vanished. Shin Dong-jin, director of SC301 Clinic in Apgujeong, stated, "When breastfeeding is stopped, the enlarged fat and mammary gland tissue contract abruptly, reducing the elasticity of the dermis and causing breast ptosis, where the breasts sag downward." He added, "On top of this, the breasts are prone to shrinking and losing elasticity."

During this process, women experience a sharp decline in self-confidence and accompanying psychological withdrawal, leading quite a few to consider the "extreme measure" of plastic surgery. However, when it comes time to actually lie on the operating table, they feel aversion to implants and fear potential side effects, leaving them in a dilemma.

In such cases, anti-aging and breast augmentation using autologous fat and stem cells can be considered. Since the patient's own fat is used, there is less concern about side effects, and because there is no foreign body sensation or adverse effects associated with implant insertion, it is preferred by those who want to achieve a naturally beautiful appearance.

Stem cells enhance therapeutic effects through immunosuppressive responses, resulting anti-inflammatory effects, the ability to differentiate into fat, chondrocyte, bone, and muscle cells, the induction of angiogenesis, and rapid recovery. While simple autologous fat grafting produces a natural appearance, its engraftment rate is only 20–30%, raising concerns that the volume may disappear rapidly shortly after the procedure. Stem cell breast augmentation is an improvement on this.

Director Shin Dong-jin stated, “Stem cell fat grafting involves isolating stem cells from a portion of centrifuged fat, mixing them with the remaining fat, and transplanting the resulting mixture to the necessary areas,” adding, “It offers not only the ability to maintain volume but also therapeutic effects for fine wrinkles and melasma.”

He is a pioneer who began researching stem cell cosmetic surgery in 2009. Through repeated research, he raised the engraftment rate of transplanted fat cells to over 70%, which he validated through two research papers. Recently, he released the results of an analysis of stem cell breast augmentation outcomes for 200 patients aged 20 to 50 who were available for follow-up observation in 2013. The findings showed that regardless of age, the average chest circumference increased by approximately 5 cm, and the women who underwent the procedure received an injection of over 90 cc and up to 260 cc of fat and stem cells into each breast.

Likewise, stem cells can be used on the face to achieve a youthful appearance. Facial surgery restores volume to sunken areas such as the forehead, eyes, and cheeks, as well as deep nasolabial folds, sunken temples, and sagging jawline, creating a luxurious and youthful look. 

SC301 Clinic is introducing 'Stem Cell Ulthera Lifting,' which combines adipose stem cell transplantation with Ulthera lifting. Ulthera is a type of ultrasound treatment that improves skin elasticity by precisely stimulating the fascia layer 4.5 mm deep inside the skin without damaging the skin.

First, the process involves improving overall skin elasticity with Ulthera, followed by enhancing three-dimensionality with stem cell plastic surgery.
The procedure is underway. Director Shin explained, “If you desire a vibrant impression, you can significantly improve your appearance simply by properly defining your facial lines,” adding, “By combining stem cell fat grafting, we can add overall dimensionality to the face that is difficult to achieve with Ultherapy alone.”

Above all, since these procedures involve liposuction, you can expect the effect of smoothing out age-related fat. If combined with facial and breast augmentation, a slightly larger amount of fat is extracted, allowing for a "triple treatment" that enables you to achieve dewy, glowing skin, a voluminous bust line, and a slim body line free of excess fat, allowing you to be reborn elegantly like an actress.

Occasionally, some women worry that due to their age, recovery after surgery might be slower and the prognosis worse compared to younger people. Dr. Shin emphasized, “Middle-aged women actually often have better results than younger women,” adding, “The outcomes are significantly better because sagging skin is improved and breasts that have sunken due to breastfeeding are restored.”
