▶V-Face Contouring (Cheek Sideline Lift with Dissolvable Threads)
This procedure involves the insertion of specialized absorbable threads with cogs (hook-like structures) underneath the skin using a fine needle to improve skin sagging along the cheek and jawline. The lifting effect can be described as similar to gently supporting the area with the palm of your hand. In addition to the mechanical lifting, the threads stimulate collagen production around the insertion sites, which may contribute to improved skin texture and a delay in visible signs of aging. Please note that the effects vary among individuals. We generally recommend repeating the procedure once every 6 to 12 months.

- Pain, Swelling, and Bruising: These symptoms typically subside within about one week, although they may take longer in some cases. Occasionally, bruising (blue discoloration) as subcutaneous hemorrhage may appear on the cheeks but usually resolves within approximately two weeks. In very rare cases, swelling of the parotid gland may occur. If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to return for a follow-up consultation.
- Needle puncture marks: One small puncture will be made on each side within the hairline at the temples. These typically heal within about a week.
- Infection: Although rare, there is a possibility of infection. If you experience increased swelling or other unusual symptoms, medical treatment may be required. In such cases, please return for a follow-up consultation.
- Tightness, Skin Irregularities, and Thread-Related Issues: You may experience sensations of tightness, skin irregularities, dimpling, or thread-related issues such as a visible or palpable thread beneath the skin. In very rare cases, the end of a thread may protrude through the skin. If you notice any of these symptoms, please return for a follow-up consultation. Some cases may be corrected manually, while others may require minor surgical revision.

- Cleansing and Makeup: You may gently wash your face, shampoo your hair, take a shower and apply makeup starting from the day of the surgery. However, please refrain from taking a bath until 3 days after the surgery. Please avoid hair coloring for at least 1 week after the surgery.
- Driving and Operating Vehicles: Please refrain from driving a car, riding a motorcycle, and operating a bicycle or any other vehicle at least on the day of the surgery. For several days after the surgery, please choose soft, non-irritating foods.
- Antibiotics and Painkillers: Please take the prescribed antibiotics for one day. Painkillers should be taken as needed, with a dosage of 1 or 2 tablets per dose, and a maximum of 3 tablets per day. It is advisable to avoid taking painkillers on an empty stomach.
- Facial Massage: Please refrain from vigorous facial cleansing, facial or scalp massage, and dental treatment for 1 month after the surgery.
- Effects of Surgery: Immediately after the procedure, the effect will appear more lifted than the final result. Over the course of about 1 month, the lifted area will gradually settle into its final position. Following that, the results will naturally continue to change at a pace determined by your individual aging process.
- Variation in Results: The speed at which the skin sags and the perception of youthful appearance vary greatly between individuals and are subject to personal factors. Therefore, it is difficult to predict the exact duration of the effects of the procedure. If there is little or no change, or if the results revert more quickly than expected, please note that re-treatment will be charged at the standard fee. In cases where the results return quickly, we recommend considering a higher-grade treatment for the next procedure. Please allow at least 3 months before undergoing re-treatment in the same area.
- Deformity: If any visible deformity occurs, we will provide corrective treatment free of charge within 1 year after the initial surgery.
- Other Concerns: If you have any questions or notice anything unusual, please do not hesitate to contact us.
