I-Thread
A strong-hold thread that firmly lifts sagging.
About I-Thread
I-Thread is a dissolvable thread with a cog structure that grips sagging tissue, used to firmly lift areas where sagging is more advanced.
As the thread dissolves, it stimulates collagen production, offering lifting and improved firmness together.
SIA Clinic Gangnam offers I-Thread for the deep cheeks, jawline and nasolabial area (1, 4, 6 or 10 threads), forehead/brow and double chin, plus full-face I-Thread packages.
