Flower Lift

Flower Lift

Our signature thread lift — immediate lifting with ongoing collagen stimulation.

Overview

Precision thread lift for natural lifting.

Flower Lift is Link Plastic Surgery's exclusive non-surgical lifting procedure using absorbable lifting threads. In a single 30-minute session, threads mechanically lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production from within. The result is an immediate V-line contour with progressive improvement as new collagen builds over the following weeks.

No incisions. No scarring. Most patients return to daily activities within 2–3 days.

Process
How it works
Consultation

Consultation

Your surgeon evaluates your skin elasticity, facial volume, and sagging pattern. Together you select the thread type and package that matches your goals.

Skin diagnosis and pre-simulation

Skin Diagnosis & Pre-simulation

Based on the consultation, your surgeon demonstrates the expected results of the Flower Lift through a pre-simulation, so you can visualize the changes before the procedure begins.

Thread lift procedure

Procedure

Threads are inserted through tiny entry points using a fine cannula, then anchored to lift tissue upward. The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, performed by experienced specialists.

FAQ
Common questions
What exactly is "Flower Lift"?

Flower Lift is our signature thread lift using advanced PDO threads with multi-directional cogs to lift and tighten sagging skin without surgery. The threads also stimulate your body's natural collagen production, improving skin texture and firmness over time.

Who is a good candidate for Flower Lift?

Ideal candidates are in their late 30s to early 50s with mild to moderate sagging in the cheeks, jawline, or neck. If you have good skin elasticity but want a noticeable lift without surgery, Flower Lift may be the right choice.

How is Flower Lift different from a regular thread lift?

Standard thread lifts use a one-size-fits-all approach. Flower Lift is customized with a pre-simulation stage and tailored into three packages (Pure, Flutter, Allure) so the thread type and count precisely match your degree of sagging and desired outcome.

Does it hurt?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you feel no pain during treatment. You may experience mild soreness and tightness for 2–3 days afterward, easily managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

What is the recovery like?

Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 days. Mild swelling and bruising may last 3–5 days. Avoid strenuous exercise, facial massages, and extreme facial expressions for about 2 weeks.

Are there any risks or side effects?

Thread lifts are considered very safe with minimal risks. Temporary swelling, bruising, and mild soreness are the most common side effects and resolve within a week. Serious complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced surgeon.

Will there be any visible scars?

No. The threads are inserted through tiny needle-sized entry points that heal within days and leave minimal visible scarring in most cases. This is one of the key advantages over surgical facelifts.

How long do results last?

Results typically last 1–3 years depending on thread type and your skin condition. Collagen stimulation continues even after the threads dissolve, so the anti-aging benefits extend beyond the thread's lifespan.

Can I combine Flower Lift with other procedures?

Yes. Flower Lift pairs well with filler, Botox, Ultherapy, or skin boosters for comprehensive rejuvenation. Many international patients combine procedures to maximize results during a single visit to Korea.

How long should I stay in Korea?

We recommend a minimum stay of 3–5 days: one day for consultation, one day for the procedure, and 1–2 days for a follow-up check before you travel home.
