Thread Lifting Steps

Local Anesthesia
Local anesthesia is given where the threads will be placed.
- STEP 03

Threads are inserted through small needle holes to pull up and secure sagging tissue.
- STEP 04
Final Check
We check left-right balance and lines, and explain the precautions after treatment.
Recovery After Treatment
- Day of Treatment
Swelling, bruising and a tight feeling may occur at the needle sites. In most cases you can return to daily activities right away, and you may wash your face and wear makeup from the next day.
- After 3 Days
Swelling and the tight feeling gradually decrease. You may feel tightness when opening your mouth wide or making big facial expressions.
- After 1 Week
Swelling and bruising usually subside within 1 week. From around this time, you may use the sauna and drink alcohol again.
- After 1 Month
The lifted lines settle. Dissolvable threads are gradually absorbed in the body over time.
Recovery speed varies by person and thread type.
