I'm in my 30s with thin skin and thinking about getting a lifting procedure. Please give me some advice.
Hello, senior members of Maypure! I've been lurking every day just to get information, but I'm posting a question for the first time because I have a really big concern regarding cosmetic procedures. I'm heading into my mid-30s, and at some point, whenever I take a selfie or look in the mirror, I started noticing what you might call "pouting"—the skin around the corners of my mouth is sagging slightly and casting shadows. ㅠㅠ In the past, I just thought it was baby fat or puffiness from fatigue, but now I've painfully come to admit that it is undeniably the force of gravity and loss of elasticity due to aging... *sob* My jawline doesn't look as sharp as it used to; it seems blunt and wide, and I'm under a lot of stress because of it.
So, I did a lot of research because I was thinking about getting a proper lifting procedure instead of just using home care devices. Looking at online communities, it seems like InMode, Shurink, Ulthera, and Tentherma are the most commonly performed treatments. However, I definitely don't have a lot of chubby cheeks; in fact, my skin layer is quite thin, and I tend to have less cheek fat. I’ve seen some scary reviews saying that if a lifting procedure is done incorrectly on this type of skin, it can cause severe hollowing in the cheeks, making you look like a skeleton and making you look older, so I’m suddenly really scared.
I've heard that InMode FX mode burns unnecessary fat, so it's terrible for people like me who have thin cheeks, while I hear Forma mode generates collagen and uses radio frequency to improve elasticity... For someone like me with thin, sensitive skin—not much facial fat, but lacking elasticity and feeling like only the deep cheek area is sagging slightly—which procedure would be the absolute best fit? I can grit my teeth and endure some pain for the sake of looking beautiful, but I'm most afraid of and worried about side effects like sunken cheeks or burns. Since this is my first time getting a lifting procedure, I want to start with something that offers fewer side effects and a 확실ly firming effect, even if it costs a bit more. Please share your genuine, vivid experiences and recommendations! Thank you in advance!
