What is Saero Ponytail Facelift?

Ponytail Facelift

The Ponytail Facelift, also known as the Fox Eye Lift, is a specialized upper-face lifting technique designed to create a refreshed, naturally lifted look. As the name suggests, it delivers a subtle upward lifting effect similar to pulling your hair back into a sleek, high ponytail.

By making discreet incisions in the temple area within the hairline, this procedure gently pulls the outer eye corners and temple tissues upward. It refines the eye contour for a sleeker, more defined appearance while minimizing visible scarring. It is ideal for addressing mild upper-face sagging and achieving a sharper, more youthful upper facial impression.

Ponytail Facelift Features

We provide patient-centered, personalized care and differentiated medical services.

Lifting that Preserves Natural Facial Contours

Lifts tissues while maintaining your inherent facial frame without over-stretching, creating an unexaggerated, youthful, and vibrant impression.

Minimal Incisions Inside Scalp and Preauricular Areas

Incisions are strictly limited to the inner scalp and front of the ears, keeping scars hidden. A major advantage is that scars remain unexposed even when tying hair up.

Simultaneous Lifting of Skin and SMAS Layers

Rather than pulling only superficial skin, we dissect and lift the deep SMAS (fascia) layer for distinct, long-lasting results.

Minimally Invasive Approach & Fast Recovery

Offers smaller incision ranges with less pain, swelling, and bruising compared to traditional facelifts, allowing a swift return to daily life.

Early Aging Prevention & Optimized for Younger Patients

Ideal for both middle-aged patients and younger individuals seeking to alleviate early aging signs or post-contouring cheek sagging beyond non-surgical laser treatments.

Thread Lift vs Ponytail Facelift

Comparison Guide

Thread Lifting

Thread Lift

Inserts medical threads to temporarily pull skin; retention is relatively short, and threads may loosen over time.

Ponytail Facelift

Directly dissects the underlying SMAS fascia layer rather than just pulling skin, providing fundamental, long-lasting lifting without thread looseness.
