Anti-Aging Treatments That Don’t Require Time Off Work
In today’s fast-paced world, not everyone has the luxury of taking time off work — even for self-care. Yet, many professionals, both in Korea and abroad, are increasingly concerned about the visible signs of aging: fine lines, sagging skin, loss of facial volume. At Face Plus Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam, we understand this delicate balance — the desire to look refreshed without pausing your life.
If you’re searching for anti-aging solutions that fit seamlessly into your schedule, the good news is: you don’t need extended downtime to turn back the clock. Thanks to advances in minimally invasive procedures, staying youthful has never been easier — or more discreet.
The term “lunchtime procedures” has gained traction for good reason. These are treatments that can be completed in under an hour, with little to no recovery time. Many of our patients — whether executives, entrepreneurs, or busy parents — stop by during their lunch break or between meetings.
But convenience alone isn’t enough. Results matter. At Face Plus Plastic Surgery, we focus on procedures that deliver real, visible rejuvenation while preserving your natural look — not overdone or artificial.
Let’s explore some of the most popular treatments at our clinic that require minimal or zero downtime. Each is carefully curated by Dr. Jung Keun Park and our experienced team to ensure safety, efficacy, and elegance in results.
If sagging skin around your jawline, neck, or brows is bothering you, Ultherapy is a game-changer.
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. It targets the same foundational layer addressed in facelift surgery — without making a single incision.
30–60 minutes
Zero. Mild redness or swelling may occur, but most patients return to their normal routine immediately.
Many of our patients notice firmer skin within weeks, with ongoing improvement over 3–6 months. It’s perfect for those who want subtle, progressive lifting without the stigma of “having work done.”
For those wanting immediate results with no visible scars, thread lifting is one of our most requested procedures.
Biodegradable threads are gently inserted under the skin to lift sagging areas — often around the cheeks, jawline, and neck. These threads also stimulate collagen, offering dual benefits.
About 45 minutes
Minimal. You may experience slight swelling or bruising, but it’s typically easy to cover with makeup.
Dr. Park uses ultra-fine threads and precise placement to ensure symmetry and natural contours. This is artistry in motion — not just a mechanical lift.
As we age, volume loss — especially around the cheeks, temples, and under-eye area — can create a tired or sunken appearance. Fillers can reverse that almost instantly.
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvederm® or Restylane® are injected to plump hollow areas, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial harmony.
15–30 minutes
Minimal. Some swelling or redness may occur, but it typically subsides within 1–2 days.
At Face Plus, we focus on micro-volumizing — a technique where tiny amounts are used strategically for natural enhancement. No puffiness, no "filler face."
Perhaps the most famous name in anti-aging, Botox continues to be a trusted ally for those wanting smooth, youthful skin — fast.
Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead creases.
10–15 minutes
None. You can head straight back to work.
We believe less is more. Dr. Park tailors each injection to maintain expressiveness while softening harsh lines — keeping your face lively, not frozen.
Dry, dull, or textured skin can make you look older than you feel. Our skin boosters — such as Rejuran Healer or hyaluronic acid injections — are designed to deeply hydrate and improve skin elasticity from within.
These micro-injections deliver nourishing compounds directly into the dermis, stimulating regeneration and locking in moisture.
20–30 minutes
Minimal. Tiny injection marks may appear temporarily but fade quickly.
Often called “injection facials,” these are especially popular among Korean celebrities and flight attendants. The glow is real — and lasts.
Some of the best outcomes come from combining two or more of these treatments. For instance, pairing Ultherapy with fillers can address both skin laxity and volume loss. Or, a thread lift combined with Botox can define the jawline while relaxing deep-set wrinkles.
At Face Plus, we customize treatment plans to fit your face — not a trend. Whether you're looking to refresh your appearance for a big event or simply want to look less tired, we’ll guide you with transparency and care.
We know that even a “simple” procedure can feel intimidating. That’s why our process is designed for comfort, clarity, and safety.
Every patient begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Park or a senior medical consultant. We'll discuss your goals, assess your facial anatomy, and explain your options — no pressure, just honest advice.
For most non-invasive procedures, little preparation is needed. You can come in without fasting or altering your schedule.
We use topical numbing or gentle techniques to ensure minimal discomfort. Our rooms are private and calming — a true retreat in the heart of Seoul.
You’ll receive simple aftercare instructions — often nothing more than avoiding intense workouts or direct sunlight for a day or two. Most patients go straight back to work or dinner plans.
With over 21 years of experience, Dr. Jung Keun Park leads a team renowned for precision and care. Our clinic isn’t just about trends — it’s about timeless results. Whether you're a local resident or visiting from abroad, we pride ourselves on:
Artistic, natural-looking outcomes
Cutting-edge technology
Global patient care
Privacy and professionalism
You don’t need a week off to feel better about yourself. With the right hands — and the right clinic — subtle, powerful transformation can happen on your schedule.
