LIJIN’s Thread Lifting
Design Custom V-Line and Stimulate Collagen with Thread Lifting
Thread lifting uses dissolvable PDO, PLLA, or PCL threads to reposition sagging tissue and stimulate collagen, providing immediate lifting and gradual firmness. At Lijin, treatments are customized to facial structure and skin thickness using certified sterile threads, with all procedures performed by experienced doctors to ensure safe, natural, balanced results.
Type of Thread Lifting
What is MINT Lift?
MINT Lift is a facial lifting procedure that uses absorbable PDO (polydioxanone) threads with 360-degree 3D barbed cogs. These threads help lift and secure sagging skin for improved facial contours. Manufactured through a molding process, MINT Lift provides stronger tensile strength than conventional cog threads, helping improve various skin concerns.
What are the Benefits?
- Immediate lifting effect can be observed after the procedure.
- As the PDO threads gradually dissolve in the body, they stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin elasticity.
- Effective for lifting heavy jawlines, nasolabial folds, jowls, and the mid-face area.
What is ZAVO THREAD?
ZAVO THREAD is a next-generation dual-volume thread featuring a patented double mesh structure. The combined inner and outer mesh layers promote tissue regeneration while maximizing contact with the skin. This structure stimulates fibroblast activity and enhances collagen production.
What are the Benefits?
- The double mesh structure increases the contact area with skin tissue, providing instant lifting and volume restoration.
- Actively stimulates collagen production within the skin.
- Compared to fillers, it creates more natural contours with minimal foreign body sensation.
- Effective for nasolabial folds, under-eye hollowness, forehead, glabella lines, and neck wrinkles.
What is Silhouette Soft?
Silhouette Soft is a premium non-surgical lifting treatment that uses PLA-based medical threads and 360-degree cone technology to lift sagging skin while restoring facial volume.
What are the Benefits?
- Reconstructs the skin structure to improve facial firmness and smoother contours.
- Not only lifts the skin but also repositions sagging fat pads, naturally restoring volume in areas such as the cheekbones.
- As the threads dissolve, the PLLA component stimulates collagen production, helping maintain skin elasticity even after the threads are absorbed.
- Effective for sagging cheeks, jowls, and nasolabial folds.
Thread Lifting, Restoring Firmness from Within
As skin ages, collagen and elastin — the key components for elasticity — gradually decrease, leading to wrinkles and sagging.
Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that repositions the skin while stimulating new collagen production.
This dual effect not only provides immediate lifting but also promotes long-term regeneration for firmer, more youthful skin.
Before Thread Lifting
As aging progresses, collagen and elastin
— the key components for skin elasticity
— decrease, leading to deeper wrinkles and reduced firmness.
After Thread Lifting
After thread lifting, the red collagen fibers within the skin become denser and more abundant, and increased vascularity can also be observed.
Lijin’s PDO & PLLA Thread Lifting
Lijin’s PDO thread lifting is a clinically proven technique that engages with the skin’s underlying tissue, promoting collagen production and improving firmness as the threads naturally dissolve over time.
The PLLA thread method provides a non-surgical option for contouring and volume restoration, using cone-shaped threads to support lax skin and deliver a natural lifting and volumizing effect.
Personalized Thread-Lifting Expertise
Thread types vary widely, so choosing the right approach for each patient’s skin and facial features is essential.
Excessive or improper techniques may cause bruising or discomfort, making experience and skill essential.
At Lijin Clinic, we assess facial structure and aging patterns carefully to deliver the most suitable,
individualized thread-lifting treatment.
Natural Line-Refining Lifting Treatments
Jawline Lifting
Refines sagging skin around the jawline and double chin to create a slimmer, more defined facial contour.
Nasolabial Fold Lifting
With extensive clinical experience, even deep or hollow nasolabial folds can be improved naturally.
Eye Area Lifting
Gently lifts the delicate eye area, improving sagging skin and fine lines with precision thread lifting.
Cautions
Refrain from facial massage, lymphatic massage, or strong pressure around the treated area for 1–2 weeks.
Minimize wide mouth opening or exaggerated expressions for 3–7 days to help stabilize the threads.
Keep a face-up sleeping posture for about a week to prevent tension on the inserted threads.
Light cleansing is allowed on the same day, but makeup is recommended from the next day to reduce irritation.
Bruising, swelling, and slight tightness may occur and typically subside within several days to two weeks.

FAQ
A. Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dissolvable threads to lift and support sagging skin. The threads also stimulate collagen production, which enhances elasticity and improves skin texture over time.
A. Patients typically notice an immediate lifting effect right after the procedure. Over the following weeks, collagen remodeling continues, providing a more natural and long-lasting improvement.
A. On average, results last between 9 months and 1.5 years, depending on the type of threads used and individual skin condition. Maintenance sessions can help prolong the effect and keep contours well defined.
A. The procedure is performed under local or topical anesthesia, which significantly reduces discomfort. Patients may feel some tightness or pulling during the procedure, but this usually subsides quickly.
