Thread Lift · Seomyeon, Busan

Lift it with a thread —
surgery only if needed.

Haneul is a thread-lift clinic in Seomyeon where dermatology and plastic surgery sit under one roof. Face threads, HICO and Barbie nose threads, energy lifting and, when structure truly needs it, surgery — so you get the lightest option that actually works.

The right depth of intervention — not the most.

01

Petit / non-surgical

Botox, filler and energy lifting when a light touch is enough.

02

Thread lift

Face and HICO / Barbie nose threads — lift without surgery.

03

Surgery

Eyelid, ptosis and lifting surgery when structure needs it.

Why see a clinic that does both?

One doctor who can say 'you don't need surgery'.

A surgery-only clinic tends to recommend surgery; a skin-only clinic can't offer it when you need it. Because Haneul does both dermatology and plastic surgery, the same doctor can honestly place you on the right rung — a thread when a thread is enough, surgery only when structure demands it. Our specialty is thread lifting, including HICO and Barbie nose threads, so most patients lift and define without an operation.

Our approach

My job is to recommend the lightest thing that actually works. Often that is a thread, not a scalpel.

Do I need a thread lift or surgery?

Usually the lighter option — and we will tell you honestly.

At Haneul the same doctor offers both non-surgical and surgical lifting, so the recommendation is honest: a thread lift repositions early to moderate sagging without surgery and recovers in days, while a facelift or eyelid surgery answers structural change that threads cannot hold. Because we are a dermatology and plastic-surgery clinic, we are not limited to one answer, and our habit is to start with the lightest effective option — often a face or HICO / Barbie nose thread — and step up only when it genuinely helps. We explain the realistic choice in English before you decide.

Foreign patient FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer consultations in English?
Yes. Haneul provides consultation and aftercare in English, and staff help with photo pre-consultation, booking and pricing before your visit.
Where is Haneul and how do I get there?
We are in Seomyeon, Busanjin-gu — central Busan, on subway Lines 1 and 2 at Seomyeon Station, within easy reach of downtown hotels.
What is a HICO or Barbie nose thread?
They are non-surgical nose threads that raise and define the tip and bridge using absorbable threads — an alternative to rhinoplasty for suitable candidates, and a specialty at Haneul.
Why see a clinic that does both dermatology and plastic surgery?
Because the same doctor can recommend the lightest option honestly — a thread when a thread is enough, surgery only when structure needs it — instead of being limited to one answer.
How long does a thread lift last and how soon do I recover?
A thread lift typically lasts 12 to 18 months as collagen rebuilds, with most people back to daily life in one to three days.
Do you perform surgery as well?
Yes — eyelid, ptosis, mini facelift and fat grafting are offered, but recommended conservatively, only when threads or energy cannot achieve your goal.
How much does a thread lift cost in Busan?
Thread pricing depends on the number and type of threads and the area treated; we give a written quote at consultation after designing the lift for your face.
Can I plan from abroad before travelling?
Yes. Send front and side photos and we will advise whether a thread, energy or surgical option suits you, with a quote before you travel.
