Thread Lift in Seoul | Grand Plastic Surgery

What is a Thread Lift?

A thread lift uses dissolvable threads to lift sagging cheeks and jowls without incisions. At Grand Plastic Surgery we use patented PDO threads with 360° spiral barbs (USP 1-0, 0.40 mm) that grip the tissue, lift it and stimulate new collagen as they dissolve.

Common Treatment Areas

• Cheeks and nasolabial folds
• Jowls and the jawline
• A wide-looking lower face
• Mild neck sagging

Am I a Good Candidate?

A thread lift may suit you if you:

• Have mild sagging at any age
• Have nasolabial folds or cheeks that make you look older
• Want to avoid surgical scars
• Cannot take long time off work, or need to fly home soon

Threads do not reposition the deep SMAS layer or remove excess skin, so for moderate to severe sagging our surgeons recommend a deep plane mini lift or facelift.

The Thread Lift Procedure

The procedure takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour under IV sedation, and you go home the same day.

Step by Step

1. Consultation and design of the lifting vectors
2. IV sedation for comfort
3. Threads inserted through tiny entry points, with no incisions
4. Lift adjusted and checked before you go home

Recovery and Results

• Mild swelling and tenderness for a few days
• No stitches to remove, so you can fly home soon after
• The threads dissolve after about 240 days, and the collagen formed around them keeps supporting the lift
• Results do not last as long as a surgical facelift, and many patients combine threads with Ultherapy or Thermage
