COG Thread Lift at Yeongjong Central Dermatology Clinic, Incheon
Deep Tissue Lifting and Facial Rejuvenation with Barbed Threads
The COG Thread Lift is a powerful non-surgical lifting treatment that uses barbed PDO threads to mechanically elevate sagging skin, restore facial contours, and stimulate collagen production. At Yeongjong Central Dermatology Clinic, we specialize in advanced COG thread techniques to achieve firm, natural-looking lift results for the mid- and lower face—without surgery or extended downtime.
Understanding COG Thread Lifting
COG (short for “cogwheel”) threads are designed with small barbs or hooks that anchor into deeper layers of tissue. These threads provide immediate mechanical lifting and long-term skin tightening through collagen induction. COG threads are ideal for:
- Lifting sagging cheeks and nasolabial folds
- Reducing jowls and defining the jawline
- Elevating drooping mid-face structures
- Creating a natural V-line shape
- Tightening loose skin in the neck and lower face
Compared to smooth or mono threads, COG threads offer a more dramatic lift and longer-lasting results.
Consultation & Diagnosis at Yeongjong Central
During your first visit, our dermatologist will assess:
- Skin laxity, thickness, and degree of facial sagging
- Facial proportions, symmetry, and aging patterns
- Overall suitability for COG threads vs. other lifting methods (e.g., HIFU, RF, or surgical lift)
- Areas where mechanical lift is most beneficial
A custom treatment plan will be designed for targeted facial rejuvenation.
Treatment Options Available
- Midface Lift with COG Threads
Threads are placed along the cheek and smile line areas to lift sagging soft tissue, reducing heaviness and restoring youthful volume to the mid-face. - Jawline Redefinition
Strong COG threads are inserted along the jawline to contour and reduce jowls, providing a clean and defined lower face. - Neck and Lower Face Combination Lift
Threads are extended into the upper neck to tighten loose skin and create a smoother transition between the jaw and neck. - Vertical Cheek Lift Design
For patients with deep nasolabial folds or sunken cheeks, vertically placed COG threads elevate the tissue while minimizing the appearance of deep folds. - Customized Lift Patterns for Asymmetry
Threads can be placed in different vectors on each side of the face to address uneven sagging, droop, or facial imbalance.
