◆ What Is Endoscopic V- Line Facelift? 


The lower face gradually tums into a square shape starting from your 20s because of reduced skin elasticity and sagging jawline.Also, fat deposits around the mouth begin to protrude making droopy lower cheeks. Endoscopic V-Line Facelift, as a mini facelift procedure unique to April 31, removes the skin sagging around the mouth and the jawline, and produces a permanent V-line effect without cutting bones.
