Why should you get a thread lift at an experienced clinic?
Thread lifting is a procedure that involves inserting special threads into the skin to immediately lift sagging tissue while simultaneously inducing collagen production, allowing for long-term improvement in skin elasticity. It is a popular choice because it can be performed without surgery using only anesthetic cream, and patients can return to their daily activities on the same day.
However, while thread lifting may appear simple, the results vary significantly. From the selection of thread type and quantity to the insertion direction and depth, and the design of fixation positions—the doctor's experience and understanding of facial anatomy directly determine the outcome. The more procedures performed, the more experience is accumulated in handling diverse face shapes and sagging patterns, enabling the creation of more natural and satisfactory results.
The reason Gwangju Mi Clinic has become the clinic performing the most thread lifting procedures in Gwangju is precisely due to the accumulation of that experience.
Silhouette Soft — Lifting and Volume Simultaneously
Silhouette Soft is a premium thread lifting product approved by the U.S. FDA and is one of the most trusted lifting threads in dermatology and plastic surgery clinics both domestically and internationally. Made from biodegradable materials, it is naturally absorbed by the body over time.
The biggest differentiating feature of Silhouette Soft is its bidirectional cone structure. Small cones attached to the thread anchor to the tissue like anchors, creating an immediate lifting effect. At the same time, during the healing process, it stimulates collagen production, providing continuous elasticity improvement over a period of 6 to 18 months. The ability to achieve both immediate lifting and long-term regenerative effects simultaneously is what makes Silhouette Soft special.
It is particularly effective in improving mid-face sagging, such as cheek sagging, nasolabial folds, and blurred jawlines, and is known to create significant synergy when combined with energy devices like Ulthera and Thermage.
Silhouette Soft is a procedure that combines the immediate lifting effect of a cone structure with collagen regeneration. Based on extensive treatment cases, Gwangju Mi Clinic designs the optimal thread placement tailored to your facial shape.

Aptos is a proven thread lifting solution used in over 70 countries worldwide. Aptos' strength lies in its diverse product lineup. Precisely customized treatment is possible based on the area of sagging, skin thickness, and desired results.
