Forehead & Brow Lift
A thread lift that lets you open your eyes with ease
A drooping-eye lift designed to improve the eye shape and relieve the heaviness of the eyes. From the eyes to the forehead line, a 1:1 custom treatment allows a quick return to daily life.
Overview
A thread lift that lets you open your eyes with ease
The barbed threads pull up the sagging skin to lift the forehead, delivering a brow lift effect that makes the eyes look sharper and clearer.
Principle
A stronger thread lift combining Mint Lift and Silhouette Soft
The forehead & brow lift uses PDO threads that dissolve in the body to pull and fix sagging, elasticity-depleted skin, aiding the contraction of the muscles that open the eyes so they can open with greater force and ease. The barbed threads pull up the sagging skin to lift the forehead and deliver a brow lift effect that makes the eyes look sharper and clearer, and by improving skin elasticity, it also helps improve forehead wrinkles.

FAQ
Medical threads with barbs (cogs) are inserted into the subcutaneous/SMAS layer to directly pull up sagging tissue. Because the tissue is physically lifted right after the procedure, it delivers an immediate lifting effect.
With dissolving threads (PDO), the threads themselves take about 6 months to 1 year to be absorbed by the body, and thanks to the collagen tissue that forms around them, the actual results usually last about 1 to 1.5 years.
In the past, non-dissolving threads (such as gold threads and Tess threads) were also used, but because of tissue adhesion and the difficulty of removing them when complications arose, dissolving threads that safely break down and are absorbed by the body now account for the vast majority of procedures.
After local anesthesia (injection anesthesia), the threads are inserted using a blunt-tipped cannula, so pain during the procedure is minimal. For those with severe pain or anxiety, sedation anesthesia can also be used.
If the threads are inserted too shallowly or excessive tension is applied at a certain point, dimpling — where the skin puckers or dents — can occur. It usually resolves within 1 to 2 weeks, and if it remains firmly fixed, it can be easily corrected at the clinic by adjusting the tension.
Bruising, a tight feeling when opening the mouth, and slight swelling right after the procedure subside within 3 to 7 days, and daily activities are possible from the same day.
Combining them offers excellent synergy. However, we recommend either first receiving a thermal laser (such as Ultherapy) to tighten the deeper fat/dermis and then performing the thread lift, or receiving the laser at least 1 to 2 months after the thread lift.
For about 2 weeks, you must avoid opening your mouth excessively wide (dental treatment, yawning), strong meridian massage, sleeping face-down, drinking alcohol, and saunas, so that the threads do not slip out of the position in which they were set.
If there is too much fat, its weight can cause the threads to sag easily, so it is better to combine the treatment with contouring injections or a fat-dissolving laser.
In the early period after the procedure, when you laugh hard or open your mouth wide, you may feel the thread suddenly slip from its anchor point or slightly snap. Any slight foreign-body sensation you can feel naturally disappears as the threads are absorbed.
