At the time of publication, eased COVID-19 restrictions were gradually allowing a return to everyday life. The outdoor mask requirement had been lifted in May, and further unmasking was expected as summer approached. Some people still kept masks on because of caution or habit; others were concerned about facial contours that had sagged over the preceding two years.

Dr. Jang said inquiries about anti-aging and lifting procedures had recently increased. He described thread lifting as one of the simpler, quicker ways to lift facial contours and improve firmness with an immediate effect.

The article highlights quick results, the ability to resume everyday activities, and the option to select different threads for concerns that vary by age and facial area.

“What affects the result is not simply the kind or quantity of threads, but which thread is placed in which location,” Dr. Jang explains. He describes the use of threads that dissolve completely in the body, while cautioning that indiscriminately pulling upward for a dramatic effect can accentuate the cheekbones and make the face look wider. Facial structure and skin type must be analyzed carefully to find a suitable design.

Because skin, aging, and the pattern and shape of sagging differ between individuals, precise planning and treatment are important for natural-looking, desired results. The article recommends consulting a specialist with extensive clinical experience and familiarity with a variety of threads.
