MINT thread lift in Busan Seomyeon, the lift you can see before you leave.

₩100,000 per thread with your count written before placement — typical jawline plans total ₩800,000–1,200,000. Published prices, no foreigner markup, no count inflation.

Yes — English, Japanese (日本語) and Chinese (中文). We are a 5-minute walk from Seomyeon Station Exit 2, and healing reviews continue on WhatsApp after you fly home from Busan.

The barbs are press-moulded into the thread body in a 360-degree helix rather than cut into it — higher tensile strength, better grip, a hold that lasts. Generic cut-barb threads lift less and slip sooner.

Under proper local anaesthetic at our Busan clinic, placement reads as pressure and odd tugging rather than pain. The settling days after — tightness and tenderness — are the truer cost, and they pass within a week.

Yes — barbs engage on placement, and you check the mirror before leaving. It refines further over two to six weeks as swelling settles and collagen builds along the tracks.

Twelve to eighteen months for most — the PDO dissolves by around month six to nine, and the collagen it built carries the result beyond. Clinics promising permanence are promising past the biology.

Temporary: bruising, dimpling, tightness, asymmetric swelling — the settling week. Uncommon but real: thread visibility in very thin skin or migration, both minimised by honest candidate selection and proper depth. We screen for exactly these at the exam.

Descended tissue: threads move it today. Loosening skin still in place: HIFU firms it over months. Both, staged threads-first, is the common honest answer at our Busan clinic — and the exam says which applies to you.

Yes, sequenced — threads reposition first, filler restores volume after (typically two-plus weeks later), botox anytime around. One written Busan plan orders the trip.

Soft foods and small bites for the first week — wide mouth-opening and hard chewing strain fresh barbs. It is the single most-broken rule, so we say it twice.

Entry marks are needle-point small, usually hidden near the hairline and ear, and gone within days — bruising along tracks, when it happens, covers with make-up.

Yes — male jowl-and-jawline plans are regular bookings at our Busan clinic; heavier tissue sometimes earns an extra thread per side, stated in the written count.

From day two comfortably — nothing interacts with cabin pressure. Most visitors place early in a Busan week and fly home settled around day five to seven.

Blood-thinning supplements for several days (with your physician's agreement) and alcohol the night before — both reduce bruising along the tracks.

The lift tapers gently toward baseline over months — never a sudden drop. Repeat threads, or energy-based maintenance on the collagen that remains, are both honest paths, chosen by your photos.

A visibly higher jawline the same day, refined by week six, holding twelve to eighteen months. What threads do not do: surgical-scale lifting, volume replacement, or permanence — and we say all three before placement.
