Hello.

I am Dr. Seo Kyung-hee, head of I Love Gangnam Clinic.

The forehead is one of the first areas on the face to show signs of aging.

Even just the habit of opening your eyes can continuously use the forehead muscles, making it an area prone to deep wrinkles.

Also, as collagen decreases over time, the forehead skin sags downwards, creating a heavy appearance around the eyes.

That's why many people naturally seek out forehead thread lifts to refine the upper eyelid line and improve sagging in the upper face.

At this point, a common question is: "How long does a forehead thread lift last?"

The average duration is typically about 8 to 18 months, depending on the individual's skin condition.

The duration can vary depending on the type and structure of the threads used, the procedure method, and the skin's elasticity.

Lifestyle habits and facial expression patterns also significantly affect the duration.

In other words, the duration is not a fixed number but rather a process that varies depending on the individual's skin and muscle patterns.

Forehead thread lifts don't simply pull the skin from the outside; instead, they restore the SMAS layer and superficial tissues to their original positions and support them in place.

Additionally, PDO, PLLA, and PCL threads dissolve within the skin, stimulating collagen production, resulting in a dual effect of immediate lifting and enhanced elasticity over time.

Therefore, the duration doesn't solely depend on how long the threads take to dissolve; the strength of the regenerated collagen is a crucial factor in determining the results.

The reason the duration varies from person to person is simple.

The forehead is an area with significant facial muscle movement.

For those who use their forehead muscles a lot when opening their eyes or have a habit of frowning frequently, the threads' ability to hold the tissue may be exhausted more quickly.

Conversely, those with stable muscle use and good skin elasticity tend to experience longer-lasting results.

Therefore, analyzing facial habits and muscle patterns is crucial for forehead thread lift procedures.

The process of naturally settling in involves:

Immediate lifting → Stabilization for 2-6 weeks → Enhanced elasticity and collagen formation for 2-6 months → Subsequent duration varies individually.

In short, forehead thread lifts offer a combination of rapid change and improvement over time.

That's why people say, "You'll understand why it's recommended once you try it."

Those who tend to see better results are individuals who don't overuse their forehead muscles, have stable eye-opening habits, maintain good hydration and sun protection, and incorporate skin boosters into their routine.

In these individuals, the generated collagen lasts longer, and the lifting effect is naturally sustained.

On the other hand, excessive facial massage, frequent strong expressions, and irregular lifestyle habits can shorten the duration.

More important than the duration is a clear design tailored to your facial structure, analysis of fascia and muscle usage habits, and natural results with stable lifting.

If you want a subtle, smooth, and bright forehead line, focusing on customized design expertise rather than just the duration will lead to much higher satisfaction in the long run.
