As people get older, many find that every time they look in the mirror, it feels like the center of their face is collapsing.
The once sharp and three-dimensional facial line gradually sags, the nasolabial folds deepen, and when the cheeks droop downward, the overall impression can look tired and older.
That is why many people consider a midface thread lift, but they often cannot make a quick decision because they do not know which plastic surgery clinic to choose or which method suits their face.
Based on more than 20 years of experience performing thread lifts, what I would like to tell you is that a midface thread lift is by no means a simple procedure.
Simply pulling the skin up strongly does not make you look younger.
Because each person has different skin thickness, fat volume, muscle volume, and facial expression habits, a treatment plan suited to those characteristics must be established in order to achieve natural and long-lasting results.
That is why our clinic avoids one-size-fits-all procedures and performs treatment after precisely analyzing each patient’s face.
I will explain this in more detail in the following sections.

Why is a midface thread lift performed effectively?
Our clinic carries out the procedure in three stages.
In the first stage, special threads are used to naturally restore volume in hollowed areas where fullness has been lost.
A flat face caused by sagging cheek fat can become much more lively and youthful with just this stage.
The next stage involves more delicate treatment of specific areas.
Areas such as the nasolabial folds, below the cheekbones, and the jowl area are carefully lifted to balance the overall proportions and refine the facial line more clearly.
The final stage is fixation and reinforcement of durability.
No matter how nicely it is lifted, if the fixation is weak, it will quickly return to the pre-treatment state.
We maximize the three-dimensional effect of lifting by fixing the threads in a tripod shape, and we maintain the results for a long time.
A tripod shape simply means a structure that spreads the threads in three directions like a tripod to provide three-dimensional support.
In general, if the threads are pulled only in one direction, over time the skin may return to its original position, or force may concentrate on a specific area and produce an uneven result.
However, the tripod method reflects the face’s three-dimensional structure by spreading the threads in three directions, allowing for much more stable and natural fixation.
This method is especially effective in areas with a lot of volume and movement, such as the midface, and helps prevent the face from sagging again or creating an unnatural expression over time.

Why recommend thread lifting over a facelift for the midface?
Some people wonder whether a facelift or a thread lift is better.
Of course, facelift surgery can provide a stronger effect, but the recovery period is long, and there is also a greater burden regarding scars and changes in facial expression.
On the other hand, a midface thread lift can create natural, three-dimensional changes in a short time without incisions, making it an excellent alternative for those who feel burdened by surgery.
One more point I would like to emphasize is the threads used at our plastic surgery clinic.
Most plastic surgery clinics use ready-made, commercially produced threads.
However, commercially produced threads may have been stored for a long time, which can reduce tension, and because their design is standardized, they are not easy to optimize for each individual face.
That is why our clinic uses threads that we produce ourselves.
They are made to match each person’s facial structure, have strong tension and fixation, and can be applied to areas such as the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and jowl area, allowing for a more precise procedure.
Before the procedure, we always examine the patient’s face in person and make a careful diagnosis.
We consider the bone structure, skin thickness, direction of sagging, amount of fat, and the patient’s expectations when planning the lifting direction, thread type, and pulling direction.
The consultation is not simply a place for explanation; it is the time when we decide how the procedure will be carried out.
The procedure is performed directly by the chief director, and after the procedure, we also provide systematic post-treatment care to support recovery.
We carefully take responsibility for the entire process so that patients can receive the procedure comfortably and recover naturally.

A midface thread lift may seem like a simple procedure, but for proper results, it must be backed by an understanding of facial anatomy, aesthetics, the aging process, and extensive clinical experience.
Simply inserting many threads, or using expensive threads, does not necessarily produce good results.
A satisfying lift is achieved only when the thread lift is performed appropriately according to the conditions you have.
Please keep this in mind and choose a plastic surgery clinic that can bring you satisfaction.
Thank you.
