Shinsa Thread Lifting Gangnam Lifting: Good Youthful-Skin Care Tips to Know Before the New Semester and Returning to Work image 1

Hello.

I’m Director Lee Seong-jun of the Seoul branch of Liting Plastic Surgery.

Every time a new season begins,

we naturally look back on ourselves,

and the desire to try even small changes

often comes naturally.

In particular, recently, college students

have been trying to adapt to new environments

as they enter a new semester,

and are showing greater interest

in appearance care as well.

Office workers, too, often feel the need

for self-care after a long holiday ends or

when starting a new project.

Of course, simply changing your clothing or hairstyle

can already give a fresh image.

However, facial contours and skin elasticity

are not just about appearance;

they are factors that greatly affect

the overall first impression,

so they continue to receive attention.

Especially when detailed lines such as

the jawline, cheeks, and forehead are neatly defined,

they can create a cleaner and healthier impression,

which is why many people take interest.

Amid this trend,

as one of the relatively simple care methods,

a treatment that can provide a contouring effect

without shaving bone,

thread lifting continues to be mentioned.

Among the better-known methods,

treatments such as Shinsa thread lifting

or Gangnam lifting are often discussed.

Because they can be expected to help improve

skin elasticity and refine contours,

they are one of the care methods that

both office workers and college students take interest in.

Today, we’d like to look together at

the characteristics of thread lifting like this

and what to be careful about.

What is thread lifting?

Shinsa Thread Lifting Gangnam Lifting: Good Youthful-Skin Care Tips to Know Before the New Semester and Returning to Work image 3

Thread lifting is a procedure performed by

inserting specially manufactured medical threads

under the skin

and lifting sagging tissue upward.

Unlike general incision surgery,

the key feature is that the skin is not made into a large incision;

instead, the threads are inserted through small openings

and fixed in place.

Because of this,

methods such as Shinsa thread lifting

and Gangnam lifting

are often chosen as relatively low-burden care options.

The inserted threads play a role in physically

supporting the skin,

and as they are gradually absorbed by the body over time,

they are known to stimulate collagen production,

which may help maintain skin elasticity.

In other words, the threads do not simply

serve to pull;

they can also have a certain effect on

the skin environment afterward.

However, this process and its results

may differ from person to person.

Depending on various factors such as skin thickness,

electricity? (No) elasticity, age, lifestyle habits,

and recovery speed,

the degree of perceived durability or satisfaction

can vary,

so it is difficult to explain in a uniform way.

Therefore, when looking into thread lifting,

it is important to understand in advance that

“individual differences may exist,”

and after 충분히 consulting with a specialist

about whether it is the right method for you,

it is advisable to decide.

Understanding dual-method thread lifting

Thread lifting can be classified in detail

depending on the type of threads used

and the treatment method.

One of the ways it is described is

the ‘dual method.’

The dual method is characterized by a structure

in which the threads do not simply pull in one direction,

but are designed to lift tissue in two stages,

providing more stable fixation.

In other words, it can help more evenly with

contour adjustment and skin elasticity improvement

that may be difficult with a single pull.

However, this method also does not guarantee

the same effect for everyone.

Because the degree of perception may vary depending on

various factors such as an individual’s skin elasticity,

tissue condition, and age,

it is important to consult thoroughly with a specialist

before the procedure.

Shinsa thread lifting: In what cases can it be considered?

Shinsa Thread Lifting Gangnam Lifting: Good Youthful-Skin Care Tips to Know Before the New Semester and Returning to Work image 7

Thread lifting cannot be said to be a care method

that is absolutely necessary for everyone.

However, in some situations,

it can be one of the options worth considering.

| ✔️ When you feel that your skin elasticity is not what it used to be |

As you get older,

it is normal for the skin’s natural elasticity

to gradually decrease.

At times like this, as one relatively low-burden

care method,

thread lifting can be considered.

Its ability to physically support the skin

and stimulate collagen production

may help with a natural recovery of elasticity.

| ✔️ When the jawline or cheeks look saggy |

Facial contours play a very important role

in a first impression.

If you feel that the jawline or cheeks

look like they are losing definition,

and you want to make a change,

thread lifting can be one option.

| ✔️ When you feel that major surgery is burdensome but care is needed |

Incision surgery tends to involve a

longer recovery period and higher cost.

If you want to start with a relatively simple procedure

and experience some change,

thread lifting can be considered first.

In this way, thread lifting can be useful when you

notice reduced skin elasticity or contour changes,

but it is not applied the same way to every face.

Depending on skin condition, tissue structure,

and facial shape, the effect of the procedure can vary,

and sometimes combining it with other care methods

may lead to more satisfying

results.

In other words, Shinsa thread lifting is not a method

that becomes the ‘answer’ for everyone,

so it is important to consult sufficiently with an expert

based on your own condition and needs.

Gangnam lifting: Is it applied the same to every face?

Thread lifting is not a procedure that is suitable

on its own in every situation.

✔️ When the skin is excessively thin

✔️ When there is very little fat in the face

In such cases, the threads may not be fixed properly,

so the effect may be limited,

and rather than a standalone procedure,

it may be more appropriate to combine it

with other care methods.

For example,

when performed together with various skin care programs such as

“Benefit Booster,” which amplifies skin elasticity,

or the first step of a lifting booster,

skin care “Facefit Booster,”

Rejuran Healer, Exosome ASCE+, Pink Booster, and others,

it can supplement the procedure method depending on the individual’s condition.

However, these choices also vary depending on

the individual’s skin condition and tissue characteristics,

so for an accurate judgment,

it is important to undergo sufficient consultation

with a specialist.

One question many people ask when getting thread lifting is:

“If you get thread lifting a lot,

can’t you have a facelift surgery later?”

To give the conclusion first:

No.

Even if you have received thread lifting many times,

it does not make sense to say that you cannot

have facelift surgery.

Rather, if you continue to receive thread lifting

and keep the face in a less sagging state,

then when the effects of thread lifting start to decline,

considering traditional facelift surgery afterward

can be a more effective solution.

✅ The effect and duration

vary from person to person.

Shinsa thread lifting may feel highly satisfying

for some people,

but for others, the degree of sensation

may be smaller.

The level of results and the duration of maintenance

can vary depending on

the individual’s skin condition and tissue characteristics.

✅ Pain and recovery also

vary from person to person.

The pain felt during the procedure and

the speed of recovery afterward

are all different from person to person.

Therefore, categorical expressions such as

‘there is almost no pain’ or ‘painless’

are not appropriate.

✅ It is important to understand the information

in a balanced way.

Thinking that thread lifting alone can solve

all problems may not match reality.

It should be understood as one of several care methods,

and it is advisable to choose according to

your condition and needs.

Self-care season: Is thread lifting the answer?

Rather than being a method that becomes the

‘answer’ for everyone,

thread lifting is better viewed as one of several options

that can be considered during the self-care process,

in a more balanced perspective.

What matters most is not creating a perfect change,

but the mindset of caring for yourself

and paying attention to yourself.

Whether you are a college student preparing for a new semester,

or an office worker entering a new project and return season,

even the desire to improve yourself through small attempts

is already a meaningful process.

A heart that values and cares for oneself

can ultimately make a new beginning

feel more secure.

Thank you for reading to the end.
