Shopping Threads

Shopping thread is the latest treatment developed in Korea, and aesthetically advanced country, and is attracting attention. By inserting “acupuncture needles” and “threads,” it is possible to obtain lifting and skin tightening.

By using a special needle with an ultra-fine absorbable thread that is thinner than a strand of hair, it is possible to have a casual lift-up with minimal downtime, unlike the conventional lift-up procedures where threads are inserted into the face.

The shopping thread is a special ultra-thin elastic with a fine absorbable thread attached to it, which is inserted under the skin and then removed, leaving only the thread under the skin. The inserted thread will be absorbed in 6 to 8 months, during this time, it will continue to stimulate the subcutaneous tissue and promote collagen production, which will not only lift up sagging skin but also improve the skin’s elasticity and glow.

Use of absorbable thread, which is widely accepted in surgical operations

The short absorbable thread attached to the ultra-fine needle is an absorbable thread used for suturing blood vessels in surgical operations, and its safety is widely recognized not only in cosmetic surgery but also in other surgical operations. Among the absorbable threads, we use a thread that can remain under the skin for a long time, about 8 months.

Multiple effects from healing power to having beautiful skin at the same time!

The treatment principle of cosmetic acupuncture is applied to improve skin metabolism and blood circulation by stimulating acupuncture points on the face, which are considered good for beauty.

This treatment was named “Shopping Thread Lift” by the women’s magazine “Beauty Story” because it is a tightening treatment that does not cause pain, swelling, or internal bleeding, and allows the patient to wear makeup and go shopping after treatment.
※Shopping thread is also known as Ultra V Lift, Lead Fine Lift, Fine Lift, Power Lifting, etc.

Shopping Thread Tornado

PDO (Polydioxanone), a biocompatible dissolvable thread with an established safety record, is used. The spiked dissolvable thread is wrapped around the needle, which increases the area of contact with the surrounding tissue in the skin, resulting in a powerful lifting effect despite being a thin thread.
It can be added to shopping threads for a more powerful lifting effect.

(There is no single treatment for tornados alone. It is usually in combination with shopping thread)

Characteristics of Shopping Threads

Shopping thread is a special ultra-thin insert attached with a fine absorbable thread, which is inserted under the skin, and the thread remains under the skin as the binding is removed.

The inserted thread will be absorbed in 6 to 8 months, but in the meantime, it will continue to stimulate the subcutaneous tissues and promote collagen production, which will have the effect of lifting up sagging skin and improving the skin’s quality such as firmness and glow.
