There are specific conditions for a face where thread lifting works really well.

(Explained by a plastic surgery specialist)

� Hello, this is Obje Plastic Surgery.

� When you look at the loose, less elastic skin on your face in the mirror, don’t you ever feel like you want to pull it up all at once?

� If you’re worried about sagging facial contours, you may have considered a lifting procedure at least once.

� Among the various lifting procedures, there is one that is simple and shows immediate results, which has drawn a lot of attention.

� That is thread lifting.

� Thread lifting is a lifting procedure that produces dramatic results by noticeably improving loose and sagging skin immediately after the procedure.

� Because of that, many people inquire about it when they want to improve sagging skin in a short time. However, thread lifting does not produce the same effect for everyone.

� In fact, some patients say they experienced no effect from thread lifting.

� The reason is that each patient has a different facial structure and skin condition. The results of thread lifting vary greatly depending on facial structure.

� What kind of face responds especially well to thread lifting? Let’s take a detailed look, one by one.

Faces Where Thread Lifting Works Really Well

� Thread lifting is a lifting procedure that inserts special threads into sagging areas of the skin to pull the skin upward.

� Because the threads secure and lift the skin, it has the advantage of making a natural and immediate lift possible.

� However, it does not produce the same effect for every patient. As mentioned earlier, there are specific conditions for a face where thread lifting works especially well.

  1. When skin elasticity has slightly decreased, but the skin is not severely sagging
  2. When the skin thickness is moderate
  3. When the face has volume but the contours are blurred

� If you match these conditions, the results after thread lifting can be dramatic, and the maintenance period tends to be longer. I’ll explain each one in detail.

  1. When skin elasticity has slightly decreased, but the skin is not severely sagging As skin elasticity decreases due to aging, the entire face can look saggy.

� If the skin has not yet become severely loose, thread lifting can effectively organize the sagging lines!

� Through thread lifting, slightly sagging skin is pulled upward, making the facial contours clearer and the entire face look more refined, which can create a younger impression.

When the skin thickness is moderate People with skin that is too thin or too thick often have lower satisfaction after thread lifting. They may even leave reviews saying there was no effect from thread lifting.

� However, for people with moderate skin thickness, the effect tends to last longer.

� The reason is that when the skin has an appropriate thickness, the collagen layer holds the threads firmly. The threads can remain stable inside the skin, allowing the lifting effect to last longer.

When the face has volume but the contours are blurred A face with volume in the cheekbone or cheek area, but with slight sagging around the mouth or jawline, responds well to thread lifting. As the area around the mouth becomes more defined, the volume of the cheekbones and cheeks can be restored naturally, and the overall impression can change to look firmer and more lively.

Thread Lifting Is Not Good for Everyone

� Thread lifting is a simple procedure with fast results, but it is not the right answer for everyone.

� Depending on a patient’s facial features, they may feel that thread lifting has no effect.

� So, what characteristics do patients with a weaker thread lifting effect have?

� First, thin skin. For people with thin skin, even if the threads secure the skin, the holding power is weak. As a result, the thread lifting effect does not last long.

� Next is having a lot of facial fat. If there is a lot of fat, even if the tissue is pulled with threads, the weight is greater, so the lifting effect becomes weaker.

� The same applies when the skin is severely stretched and sagging has occurred along with reduced elasticity. If the skin is very loose, no matter how much it is pulled, some sagging skin will remain, so thread lifting inevitably has physical limitations.

� In other words, the real beneficiaries of thread lifting are people in middle age whose skin has not sagged much and whose skin thickness is moderate.

Isn’t It Better to Insert More Threads in Thread Lifting?

� Some people think that the more threads inserted during thread lifting, the better the result will be. However, what matters in thread lifting is not the number of threads, but their position and direction.

� It is necessary to carefully analyze the facial structure and accurately identify the positions where the threads can work most effectively. In addition, the pulling strength must be adjusted appropriately according to the degree of sagging skin for a natural and firm lift.

� If this design process is not carried out, then no matter how many threads are inserted, the result may still be no effect from thread lifting.

� A well-designed thread lift can be expected to do more than simply pull up sagging skin; it can also create the effect of a natural facelift.

� So if you are considering thread lifting, please check whether sufficient facial structure analysis and planning were done before the procedure.

� To summarize, the effect of thread lifting can vary depending on the facial structure and skin condition.

� Therefore, to prevent no effect from thread lifting, facial structure analysis and a customized plan should come before any procedure rather than choosing it unconditionally.

� Director Kim Hyun-jo of Obje Plastic Surgery carefully examines the degree of skin sagging and skin thickness of each patient who visits for thread lifting, then meticulously designs the number of threads, insertion locations, and pulling strength before performing the procedure.

� Through thread lifting tailored to each patient, the clinic achieves a high level of satisfaction with lifting effects comparable to surgery.

� If you want to experience the true effect of thread lifting, rather than first focusing on the cost or the number of threads, please choose a board-certified plastic surgery specialist who can provide a customized plan based on an accurate analysis.

� This has been Obje Plastic Surgery. Thank you.
