This is a case where I ended up choosing thread lifting after comparing it with laser lifting. I went for the Crazy V-Lifting at Apgujeong Miracle. I did my research on various clinics and doctors before making my choice. The results from laser treatments aren't always super noticeable, so I felt more drawn towards the seemingly more effective thread lifting.
To be honest, my face had always been a complex for me. My cheeks were quite sunken, making my cheekbones stand out and my face asymmetrical. I kept thinking, "Is there any way to improve my facial contour?" and eventually made an appointment. My doctor was Dr. Woo.
During the consultation, the doctor said that lifting the sagging skin upward would make a huge difference overall, but I thought it was just a sales pitch. However, after the procedure, I really saw the change in that direction… I was pleasantly surprised to see a slight egg-shaped contour.
The procedure was done with local anesthesia. It wasn't a full sedation; the doctor chatted with me throughout, and time flew by. I had heard from others that the doctor was quick, and experiencing it firsthand, I understood why. The procedure didn’t take long, which eased my anxiety.
Honestly, I didn’t expect a dramatic change. I just hoped my cheekbones would look a bit less prominent. But I was a bit shocked to find that the sunken cheeks and asymmetry had improved as well. I honestly didn't think all three issues would get resolved at once… The contouring turned out really clean.
I also felt relieved that it was a non-incisional procedure. Since it was completely non-invasive, I didn’t worry much about scars, and after returning home, I paid attention to cold compresses and ended up with less swelling than I anticipated. They say the procedure time correlates with swelling, and I definitely felt that was true.
In any case, after a long period of contemplation, I chose the Crazy V-Lifting at Apgujeong Miracle, and I feel proud of my past self for designating both the clinic and Dr. Woo… I’m glad I made this choice, so I wanted to share my experience!
