Treatment Overview
Full Face Thread Lift Rejuvenation in Korea is a comprehensive, minimally invasive procedure that lifts sagging skin, improves facial contours, and restores youthful definition across the entire face. Using dissolvable PDO (Polydioxanone), PLLA (Poly-L-lactic acid), or PCL (Polycaprolactone) threads, dermatologists reposition soft tissue while stimulating collagen and elastin production for long-term tightening and rejuvenation.
Korean dermatologists frequently combine full-face thread lifts with Juvelook skin boosters, dermal fillers, or Secret RF treatments to enhance hydration, elasticity, and natural lifting results. With advanced mapping and vector techniques, clinics in Korea deliver balanced, natural outcomes customized for each patient’s facial anatomy.
