Threads Lifting in RE:NINE Clinic (리나인의원)
About the clinic
Thread lifting at RE:NINE Clinic in Seoul, South Korea, is a non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedure that typically runs between $3,100 and $12,400 depending on the thread count and combined therapies. This JCI-accredited facility specializes in powerful lifting techniques using premium Mint PDO and Jamber barbed threads. The clinic operates as a single-doctor practice, which means every patient receives personal attention from the head specialist.
Expertise of Dr. Jung Hyun-woo
Dr. Jung Hyun-woo is an aesthetic medicine specialist who leads all lifting procedures at the clinic. He graduated from the Dong-A University College of Medicine and completed his residency at the well-known Severance Hospital. As an active member of the Korean Academy of Lifting Medicine, he focuses on precise thread placement to achieve natural-looking results. Every procedure starts with a private one-on-one consultation where Dr. Jung Hyun-woo creates a plan based on the patient's face shape and skin elasticity.
Advanced Thread Lifting Methods
The clinic uses two primary types of threads. Mint PDO threads feature barbs or cogs that grip the skin tissue to pull it upward. Jamber threads are often used to fill and smooth deep lines, such as nasolabial folds. Patients can choose from different thread counts, ranging from 4 to 16 threads. For better results, these threads are often combined with other technologies:
- Onda and Shurink: These energy-based treatments help tighten skin using microwave or ultrasound energy.
- Ulthera: This is used specifically for lifting the double chin area alongside 4 Mint threads.
- Injectables: Fat-dissolving injections or skin botox help refine the jawline after the lift.
Recovery and Aftercare
Because the procedure is non-surgical, recovery is relatively fast. Some temporary swelling may occur shortly after the treatment. Patients should not touch or irritate the treated area on the day of the procedure. It is important to avoid saunas and traditional Korean bathhouses, known as jjimjilbangs, for about one week. Following these simple steps helps the threads stay in place and reduces the risk of irritation.

Personalized Aesthetic Care
The clinic operates as a single-doctor practice led by Dr. Jung Hyun-woo. This structure creates a private, safety-focused environment. Dr. Jung graduated from Dong-A University College of Medicine. He trained as a resident at Severance Hospital and later served as a director at Better Me.
Advanced Lifting and Rejuvenation
The team focuses on three areas: lifting, anti-aging skin boosters, and facial contouring. Several ultrasound and radiofrequency options are available for skin tightening:
- Ultherapy Prime – uses DeepSEE™ real-time visualization to target tissue layers accurately
- Volnewmer – a monopolar radiofrequency system for skin tightening
- Sofwave – micro-focused ultrasound for lifting and wrinkle reduction
- InMode – combines fat reduction with skin lifting effects
- Potenza – microneedle radiofrequency to improve skin texture and elasticity
For patients seeking skin quality improvements, the clinic offers LDM (Local Dynamic Micro-massage). This technology uses ultrasonic waves to promote regeneration and reduce redness.
Injectable and Cosmetic Procedures
The clinic provides customized filler and Botox programs tailored to individual facial structures. Dr. Jung performs 1:1 consultations before every procedure. He designs specific injection sites based on each patient's anatomy. Available brands include Xeomin, Coretox, and Belotero. Specialized Botox applications target the nasolabial folds, corners of the mouth, and salivary glands.
The skin booster menu focuses on molecular regeneration and hydration:
- Rejuran – uses salmon DNA components to repair damaged skin
- Juvelook – a collagen-stimulating filler for volume and skin texture
- Exosome therapy – uses ASCE Exosome MTS to trigger cell-level renewal
- PRP Injection – involves 60cc of the patient's plasma combined with LDM
Laser services include Pico-Fractional Laser for skin tone and CO2 Laser for removing small blemishes. The clinic also uses the Fotona Avalanche system for precise facial hair removal for both men and women.
Specialized Medical Equipment
The facility has several support systems to improve patient comfort and safety. AirNox provides medical-grade laughing gas for patients who feel anxious during procedures. For post-treatment recovery, Cryocell uses cryogenic cooling to reduce swelling and irritation. The clinic also features Astrodome for oxygen therapy and Omega Light LED systems to treat acne and inflammation.
Patient Wellness and Logistics
The clinic supports recovery through targeted IV drip programs. Options include chronic fatigue relief, hangover recovery, and high-dose vitamin infusions. Patients should avoid heat from saunas for one week after procedures.
