Facelift vs. Thread Lift – Which Is Right for You?

Grand Plastic Surgery, Gangnam, Seoul

As we age, sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of facial volume become more noticeable. If you're considering facial rejuvenation, you might be wondering: Should I get a facelift or a thread lift? At Grand Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, we offer both surgical and non-surgical lifting treatments, helping you choose the best option for your goals.



What Is a Non-Surgical Facelift?

Both procedures have unique benefits depending on your age, skin condition, and desired results.

What Is a Facelift?

A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure that lifts and tightens sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and jowls by removing excess tissue and repositioning facial structures. It provides a dramatic, long-lasting anti-aging effect.


Benefits of a Facelift at Grand Plastic Surgery

Best for advanced aging – Treats deep wrinkles, jowls, and skin laxity
Long-lasting results – Effects can last 10+ years
Customized options – SMAS facelift, deep plane facelift, mini facelift, and more
Performed by facelift specialists – Expert surgeons in Gangnam, Seoul



What Is a Thread Lift?

A thread lift is a non-surgical facelift alternative that uses absorbable threads to lift and firm the skin. The threads stimulate collagen production, providing a natural lifting effect without surgery.


Benefits of a Thread Lift at Grand Plastic Surgery

Minimally invasive – No incisions, no scars
Quick recovery – Resume normal activities in 1–2 days
Immediate lifting effect – Results continue improving as collagen rebuilds
Great for early signs of aging – Ideal for patients in their 30s to 50s



Facelift vs. Thread Lift – Which One Is Right for You?

  • If you have severe sagging and deep wrinkles, a facelift is the best choice for dramatic, long-term results.
  • If you have mild to moderate skin laxity and want a quick, non-surgical solution, a thread lift is ideal.
  • Some patients combine both treatments—starting with a thread lift and opting for a facelift later for long-term rejuvenation.
