At Haru Clinic, we understand that many international visitors are looking for effective facial rejuvenation treatments with natural-looking results and minimal downtime. Haru Thread Lifting is our signature thread lifting procedure designed to improve facial sagging, restore smoother contours, and support a refreshed appearance.
What Is Haru Thread Lifting?
Haru Thread Lifting is a non-surgical lifting procedure using dissolvable threads placed beneath the skin to lift and support areas affected by facial laxity. Specially curved threads are used to help create a natural-looking improvement in facial contour while addressing concerns such as:
- Sagging cheeks and midface volume changes
- Deepening nasolabial folds
- Uneven or less-defined facial contours
- A tired or aged-looking appearance caused by loss of skin elasticity
The goal is not to create an overly tight or dramatically altered appearance, but rather to help the face look smoother, firmer, and more balanced.
Treatment Case: Smoother Contours for a Patient in Her 30s
This patient, in her early 30s, had naturally defined facial features but was concerned about reduced skin elasticity and sagging in the cheek area. Hollowed areas and facial laxity made the overall contour appear less smooth.



Following a personalized consultation, the treatment plan included:
- Haru Thread Lifting to lift the deep cheek area and improve facial contour
- Under-eye filler treatmnt to address hollowing beneath the eyes and reduce a tired-looking appearance
Immediate Post-Treatment Changes
Immediately after treatment, the deep cheek area appeared more lifted, while hollowing around the nasolabial folds and side cheeks was improved. The under-eye filler treatment also helped soften the appearance of the under-eye hollows.



The patient’s facial contour appeared firmer and smoother without an excessively pulled or widened appearance. Small needle marks from the under-eye filler procedure may be visible initially, but typically become far less noticeable within several days.
Bruising and swelling can occur with any injectable or thread-based procedure, but Haru Thread Lifting is designed with careful technique and individualized planning to support a comfortable recovery and natural-looking outcome.



What International Patients Can Expect
For medical tourists, minimizing disruption to travel plans can be an important consideration. Many patients are able to return to light daily activities soon after treatment, although recovery experiences vary depending on the individual, treatment area, and number of threads used.
Before your procedure, our team will discuss:
- Your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals
- The most appropriate treatment areas
- Whether combination treatments, such as filler, may be beneficial
- Expected recovery, aftercare, and travel considerations
- Potential risks, side effects, and realistic expectations
Natural-Looking Results, Personalized for You
Thread lifting is not a one-size-fits-all procedure. At Haru Clinic, each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s facial structure, degree of skin laxity, and desired outcome.
Haru Lifting may be an option for patients who would like to improve facial sagging and contour while seeking a non-surgical approach with relatively limited downtime. A consultation is essential to determine whether thread lifting is suitable for your individual needs.
Results may vary from person to person. All medical procedures carry potential risks and side effects, which should be discussed with a qualified medical professional before treatment.
