Cheek sagging thread lifting

Gravity-Free Thread Lift

Prevention of warts (bumps) and
rapid recovery, natural contours

Surgery Information Surgery Information

Sagging Cheeks Thread Lifting is a lifting procedure that corrects the facial structure
by pulling up the deep cheek layers that have sagged due to gravity.
It does not simply pull the skin but pulls both the SMAS
(Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) and the fat layer together
to restore a natural contour.
Through Grace's method, we realize a smooth and long-lasting lifting
without any dimple phenomena.
The technology that changes from the inside, not the outside
—that is Grace's Cheek Lifting.

Check list Recommended for the following people

  • Those worried about dimples after Mint Lifting
  • Those who want to clearly improve a sagging jawline and double chin
  • Those who want a quick recovery with a non-incisional method without scars

If the lift is not designed to fit the face shape
and the cheek fat moves toward the cheekbones,
a "dimple" phenomenon can occur
where the face looks wider.
By crossing the sagging skin tissue in a mesh-like pattern,
we can prevent the appearance of the face spreading sideways.

MINT LIFTING Sagging Cheeks Thread Lifting
by MINT

Stronger and longer-lasting lifting effect
with a 360-degree Press Molding barb structure

  • 01 360-degree Three-dimensional Barbs

    Barbs are formed in a 360-degree spiral shape
    across the entire thread
    ,

    creating a structure that firmly
    grips the skin tissue.
    This allows for a much more powerful and stable
    lifting effect.

  • 02 Patented Manufacturing Method

    MINT Lifting is manufactured
    through a patented Press Molding process
    rather than the general cutting method
    to implement

    three-dimensional
    barbs.
    Thanks to this technology,
    the fixation and tensile strength of the thread are outstanding.

  • 03 Powerful Fixation

    The molded barbs do not bend
    or get damaged during the procedure,
    firmly supporting the skin and ensuring
    the lifting effect lasts longer.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

  • Since the threads used for lifting are made of heat-sensitive materials, the melting rate of the threads may increase if high-frequency or ultrasonic treatments (Thermage, Shurink) are performed immediately alongside it. For an effective lifting, it is recommended to proceed with Thread Lifting after a certain period following laser care.

  • Immediately after the procedure, you may feel some pulling or a foreign body sensation when moving, as the barbs of the thread are caught in the SMAS layer inside the skin. This usually subsides after about one week, and the tissues naturally stabilize over time.

  • The two procedures have different purposes. Thread Lifting is a method that directly pulls up sagging areas using thread structures inside the skin, while Laser Lifting is a method that strengthens the elasticity of the dermal layer with heat energy. Therefore, the choice varies depending on the skin condition and the degree of sagging, and Grace pulls up the outside and inside of the skin together through a combined design of Thread Lifting + Laser Lifting.
