Aftercare can also be considered an extension of the procedure. We provide personalized care programs to help our patients recover quickly.

When we directly examine the faces of people who visit our consultation room,

we are reminded each time that even people of the same age

can have different degrees and directions of sagging.

Some have cheek fat that has slipped downward,

while others have sunken areas around the cheekbones,

making the skin appear to have collapsed.

There are also people whose jawline has broken down,

making the entire face look less defined.

If every approach is the same despite each person having

a different pattern of sagging, the results cannot be equally satisfactory.

A thread lift is not simply the act of inserting threads.

The key is first identifying the cause of the sagging

and then designing an appropriate approach.

Today, we will carefully go over everything you should know before deciding,

from why the skin sags to the principles by which threads help restore firmness.

Why does the skin sag?

Doesn’t sagging naturally occur as we age?

This is one of the statements we hear most often in the consultation room.

It is true, but when we look a little more closely,

the story becomes more complex.

Once you understand why sagging occurs,

it becomes much clearer what type of approach your face may need.

The dermis is the layer primarily responsible for firmness.

Inside it, protein fibers called collagen and elastin

are woven densely like a net to support the shape of the face.

As we age, these fibers become thinner

and begin to break apart.

You can think of it as similar to the springs in a firm mattress

breaking one by one and causing the center to sink.

When the SMAS layer (superficial musculoaponeurotic system)

and the ligaments that support the overall structure from within the skin

also become loose, the subcutaneous fat can no longer overcome gravity.

It shifts downward, accelerating the sagging.

In fact, a woman in her mid-40s once visited us,

saying, “It feels as though my cheek fat suddenly slipped downward,

but I don’t know why.”

When we examined her condition directly, the firmness of the dermis

had already been significantly reduced, while the SMAS layer had also loosened,

causing the fat in the center of the cheek to shift downward.

It was not simply a problem on the surface.

As this shows, sagging is a process in which the entire internal structure

collapses together. Therefore, directly lifting the inner structures with threads

can help restore firmness.

The design is complete only after identifying the direction of sagging

How long does swelling last?

Can I go to work the next day?

These are some of the most practical concerns

people raise before undergoing the procedure.

Usually, swelling is most noticeable during the first two to three days,

and it often subsides naturally around one week later.

However, recovery speed can vary depending on the individual,

so if you have an important event coming up,

it is better to schedule the procedure with sufficient time to recover.

For one month afterward, you should avoid opening your mouth widely when yawning,

eating hard foods, and receiving massages involving strong pressure

so that the threads can settle firmly into position.

How carefully you follow these precautions

can affect the quality of the results.

At the same time, a thread lift is not the right choice for everyone.

For people with very thin skin, those whose main concern is loss of volume

rather than sagging, or those with extremely reduced elasticity,

it may be difficult to achieve the desired change with threads alone.

For these individuals, 글로비’s policy is to provide honest guidance

toward a more suitable approach.

The insertion point and angle of the threads also vary depending on the direction of sagging.

If the entry angle is misaligned, the force may not be transmitted in the desired direction,

which can leave an unnatural expression or an uneven appearance.

In particular, many Koreans tend to dislike prominent-looking cheekbones,

so placing the threads while avoiding this area is important

for creating natural contours.

At the consultation, we directly assess skin thickness and the direction of sagging,

then create a plan suited to each individual’s facial structure.

This is a principle that 글로비 follows.

Before making a decision,

we recommend confirming one thing first.

Precisely understanding what is causing the sagging in your face

and how far it has progressed and in which direction

is the starting point for satisfactory results.

At 글로비, we make it a principle to explain without omission

changes that may occur after the procedure, such as swelling,

dimpling, and temporary unevenness.

We believe that honest information should come first,

just as much as good results matter.

Rather than relying on vague expectations,

please first confirm an accurate plan suited to your condition.
