Post-Treatment Instructions for Thread Lift

Please follow the instructions below carefully after your thread lift treatment to support proper healing and help maintain your results.

For the first 48 hours after treatment, it is best to avoid excessive activity and get plenty of rest.
For up to 1 week after treatment, sleep with your upper body elevated so that your head is positioned higher than your heart. This can help reduce swelling.
Please sleep on your back with your face facing upward. Avoid sleeping on your side or stomach.

For 2–4 weeks after treatment, avoid hard or chewy foods and choose soft foods instead.
Please avoid excessive facial movements, such as laughing widely or opening your mouth too wide, as this may affect how the threads settle into place.

Swelling and bruising may increase during the first 48 hours after treatment, then gradually improve over about 1 week.
Recovery speed may vary from person to person.
Apply a gentle cold compress for the first 3 days after treatment. After that, applying a gentle warm compress for about 1 week may help reduce swelling and bruising.

Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area with your hands.
Do not press firmly on the skin or massage the treated area for at least 4 weeks, as this may cause the threads to shift.
Avoid opening your mouth widely or chewing tough foods, as this may affect how the threads settle.

You may wash your face from the day after treatment, but avoid rubbing the treated area strongly.
Showering and hair washing are allowed from the day of treatment. Please use lukewarm water instead of hot water and wash gently.
Makeup may be applied from the day after treatment. When cleansing, remove makeup gently without rubbing the treated area.
Avoid direct sunlight for 3 months after treatment, and apply sunscreen when going outside.
Avoid saunas and Korean bathhouses/jjimjilbangs for 2–4 weeks after treatment.

Light daily activities may be resumed from the day after treatment.
Light exercise is recommended from 1–2 weeks after treatment, while strenuous exercise should be avoided until 3–4 weeks after treatment.

Please take your prescribed medication regularly and exactly as directed.
If you experience any unusual reactions after taking the medication, such as diarrhea or hives, please contact the clinic.
Avoid aspirin, vitamin E, and similar products for 1 week after treatment, as they may increase the risk of bleeding.

Alcohol and smoking may increase the risk of inflammation and delay healing.
Please avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 2 weeks to 1 month after treatment.

A pulling sensation, foreign body sensation, and uneven or bumpy skin texture may occur after treatment. These are part of the normal healing process and usually improve over time.
You may feel tightness when smiling or speaking, and temporary asymmetry may occur. These symptoms usually become more natural as you heal.
As the threads settle into place, the skin may temporarily appear puckered or indented. In most cases, this improves within 2–4 weeks.
The final lifting effect usually appears gradually over 1–2 months.

Please contact the clinic immediately and visit the clinic if you experience sudden severe swelling, pain, heat, or changes in skin color after treatment.
If a thread becomes exposed or can be felt through the skin, do not try to remove it yourself. Please visit the clinic for proper care.
