What is Thread Lifting?

Thread Lifting is a minimally invasive treatment that uses absorbable threads inserted beneath the skin to lift and reposition sagging tissue while stimulating collagen for gradual firming.

What are the threads made of?

The threads are typically made of absorbable materials such as PDO or PLLA, which dissolve safely over time while stimulating collagen. Your doctor selects the thread type for your case.

Is there downtime?

Some downtime is expected. Mild swelling, bruising, or a tight sensation may last a few days, and you may be advised to avoid wide mouth movements briefly.

Does it hurt?

Local anesthesia is used for comfort. You may feel pressure or tugging during the procedure, with some tenderness afterward that settles within days.

How long does the treatment take?

Most sessions take approximately 30–60 minutes depending on the number of threads and areas.

When can I see results?

A lifting effect is visible immediately, becoming more natural as swelling settles. Collagen-related firming continues over 1–3 months. Individual results vary.

How long do results last?

Results commonly last from several months up to a year or more depending on thread type, skin condition, and aging.

Can it be combined with other lifting treatments?

Yes. Thread Lifting is often combined with ultrasound or radiofrequency lifting for a layered result, as planned by your doctor.

What aftercare is needed after I return home?

We provide clear aftercare guidance for hydration and sun protection. You can stay in touch with our team through your preferred channel for follow-up questions after you return home.

How much does this treatment cost in Korea?

Pricing varies by product, treatment area, and your personalized plan. Exact pricing is confirmed after consultation — use the "book a consultation" button and our team will guide you.

Do you provide consultation in English, Chinese, Japanese, or Thai?

Yes — our interpreters are in-house, not on the phone. English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Japanese, and Thai speakers are part of the clinic team, so your consultation, treatment day, and aftercare all happen in your language. Let us know your preferred language when you book.

Can I have this treatment during a short trip to Seoul?

Often, yes. Same-day treatment is possible for many procedures when your schedule is limited, subject to your Personal Consultant Session and the Doctor's Treatment Design. Share your travel dates when you first contact us and we can usually confirm in advance whether what you are considering fits the time you have in Gangnam.

Can I fly after the treatment?

This treatment does involve a short recovery period. Typical downtime is a few days, though individual experiences vary. In most cases you can fly shortly after, as downtime is minimal. We recommend sharing your travel dates during consultation so aftercare can be planned around your trip.
