I have always been generally slim and do not have much facial fat, but my face somehow looked a little flat and the lower part seemed saggy, which was subtly stressful. In photos, my facial contours were not defined and everything looked somewhat droopy. I thought losing more weight would make my face look hollow, so I looked into lifting. Since it was my first lifting treatment, I read many reviews, and I was most worried because thread lifting can cause dimpling or unevenness. I also wondered whether inserting threads into a face with little fat would make them too noticeable. Still, I decided to consult first. At the clinic recommended by someone I know, I said I wanted only the sagging areas naturally tidied rather than having my whole face pulled tightly and looking obvious. They said they would do that and told me not to worry. Since I went through an acquaintance's recommendation and the consultation was not vague, I decided to have a thread lift. [Before] This is my face before the procedure. Even in the photo, I did not have much facial fat, but the area below my cheeks was slightly descended, so it looked flat, right? From the side especially, the lower face looked a little saggy, and even from the front it felt somewhat lacking in dimension. [Day of procedure] There was some swelling and a slight pulling sensation where the threads were inserted, but I could already see my facial contour forming! Since it was only the first day, I decided to wait and see, but honestly my expectations were already rising from then, haha. [1 week] After about a week, the pulling sensation had decreased a lot and the swelling had almost disappeared! It looked clearly more natural than at first, and I could definitely see the lower face being refined. Most importantly, I was relieved that there were no dimples or uneven areas, which I had worried about! [2 weeks] It has now been about two weeks, and I am quite satisfied! I love that my face gained dimension as only the areas that looked saggy were refined, rather than giving the impression that my face had been forcibly pulled, haha. It is still only week two, so I need to observe it a little longer, but it seems to have turned out naturally and well, so I am satisfied! I compared the before-and-after photos and the difference shows clearly, so I will upload them together in the order of before/day of procedure/one week/two weeks, haha.

I went to get nose contouring because I wanted a slimmer-looking nose. They said the alar Botox included in the promotional nose-contouring package was only a small dose, so I paid extra for alar Botox as well because I was concerned about
