A Hiko nose thread lift is a minimally invasive way to raise the nose: absorbable threads are placed in the subcutaneous layer of the nasal bridge, and the support of the threads, together with the new collagen they stimulate, makes the line of the bridge stand up. We don’t pre-package a set option. The doctor looks at your nose shape and skin condition at the in-person consultation, and only then decides between bridge threads or a bridge + tip lift, how far it extends, and whether to use Korean-made or imported threads; you are not handed over to anyone else, and the consultation, the design and the procedure are all done by the doctor. It suits people with a low, flat nasal bridge who want to see what a raised nose looks like first; but if the nasal tip droops severely or there are obvious structural problems with the nose, the support the threads can give is limited, and we will suggest you consider other options.

How we do it hereNose threads

Unit
Per session, in two types: bridge threads, and a bridge + tip lift (Hikofting); the threads are further divided into Korean-made and imported
Time
About 10–15 minutes
Pain
Numbing cream first, with local anesthesia if needed; usually a feeling of pressure rather than a sharp pain
Interval
How long it lasts depends on the threads and the individual, usually around a year; it can be repeated once the threads have been absorbed
Recovery
Same as a thread lift: avoid alcohol and saunas for one week, and do not rub your nose
