Thread Lifting (PDO, PCL Threads) Cost in Korea
Thread lifting is a popular non-surgical anti-aging procedure in Korea that involves inserting dissolvable threads under the skin to lift sagging areas and stimulate collagen production. Korean clinics commonly use PDO (Polydioxanone) and PCL (Polycaprolactone) threads for face, jawline, and neck lifting. This minimally invasive procedure offers noticeable lifting results with minimal downtime, making it a sought-after choice among domestic and international patients.
