(Gangnam Station, Seoul) Dermatology Clinic Recommendation | Honest Review of Thread Lifting
Today, I went to Gangnam.
I've heard that recent thread lifting procedures are becoming popular.
On the recommendation of a colleague I work with
I went to get a real lifting.
The hospital I visited is a dermatology clinic near Gangnam Station!
It's close to Exit 10 or Exit 9 of Gangnam Station.
It is located within a 5-minute walk from Gangnam Station.
For those driving their own cars,
Parking fee including valet service for up to 2 hours: 4,000 won
Since then, a cost of 1,000 won has been incurred every 10 minutes!
After consulting with the director
I had a consultation with the doctor who will perform the procedure today!
Looking at the photograph that was taken
They explained about thread lifting.
We proceeded with lower eyelid skin lifting.
A total of four lines, two on each side, will be done.
(Up to 16 lines possible)
In my case, my square jaw has developed.
Because of increasing skin
For someone like me, if I undergo lower face real lifting,
They say that a square jawline can be emphasized!
So, it's also good to proceed with square jaw Botox together.
After consulting with the director
I waited outside briefly and then went straight into the treatment room.
Store accessories and all belongings in the locker.
You need to change into slippers!
<Face lifting procedure method>
- Sitting and marking on the face (where the needle goes)
- Face disinfection (at this time, the disinfectant that enters the mouth or nose can be ingested)
- Hair grooming (done by the nurse and the director)
- Anesthetic injections (in multiple areas on the face)
- Injecting lifting thread
Hemostasis at the treated site after the procedure
- Treatment area tape application (DuoDERM)
That's the end!
I think the total time was within 10 minutes!
This is a photo taken immediately after the procedure.
Is it swollen and puffy?
However, when viewed from the front, you can see that the jawline is well-defined.
Points to be careful about after thread lifting!
It might be helpful for those who are interested.
Additionally, you need to take the medication for three days after the lifting.
They say you have to eat every day without missing a single day.
Advantages of the procedure
- The price range is affordable
- You can resume daily activities immediately after the procedure.
- The facial line is clearly defined and noticeable.
- No severe bruises (in my case, none at all)
- It can be managed without surgery.
Disadvantages of the procedure
- You may feel a foreign body sensation
It is said that swelling can last from one to three days.
- Due to temporary anesthesia
Experiencing vomiting or nausea (individual differences may vary)
I had many questions before the procedure.
I think there are people who share the same thoughts as me.
I will try to answer the questions myself!
Q) Should I choose local anesthesia or sedation anesthesia?
Will it hurt a lot?
A. I used local anesthesia, and the pain was not severe.
If you're good at getting injections, local anesthesia is also okay!
But there may be a slight fear when the tube is inserted or pulled, even though there is no pain.
It felt like putting rose thorns into my skin.
Because the doctor explained in advance
I was okay.
Q2) Is it okay to open the jaw wide?
A. Since it's the day of the procedure, it's difficult to make significant progress right now!
So, I'm eating something like porridge. They say it will be okay after a few days. (I'll check again in a few days and update you)
Q3) Are there any side effects?
A. The biggest fear before getting thread lifting was the side effects! My colleagues and friends, as well as various reviews, mentioned that if done at a place without proper skill, it can cause a puffy dimpling or similar phenomenon.
I am a plastic surgeon specializing in cosmetic surgery and an experienced doctor in lifting procedures.
Fortunately, there were no side effects after finding the doctor!
Everyone, please make sure to check the reviews before you go ㅠㅠ
Q4) Is it possible to lift the corners of the mouth with real lifting?
A. I asked the doctor directly about this!
It is not possible to lift the corners of the mouth with thread lifting.
The corners of the mouth should be done with fillers and surgery.
Q5) Is it okay to get a real lifting procedure in my 20s?
A. Yes!!!!!! I saw the effects that I couldn't see with Botox!
Q6) How to find a good hospital for procedures
A) I referred to reviews and YouTube videos from people who actually used the service, and I also visited dermatology clinics around Gangnam Station to consult! I found a few places with good reviews, received consultations, and ended up finding a hospital that suited me well.
Q7) Procedure cost
It varies depending on the hospital and the type of equipment.
In my case, I underwent an epithelium removal procedure.
The price per line was 44,000 won.
It's not about advertisements or anything like that.
This is a genuine, out-of-pocket purchase review.
Thinking back to the past when I was anxious because there were no reviews like this
