What is a HICO nose thread?

Project the tip without an operation.

HICO (High-Correction) nose threading inserts fine absorbable threads along the nose to project the tip and build a subtly higher, straighter bridge — a non-surgical alternative to rhinoplasty. The threads give immediate definition and stimulate collagen for lasting support as they dissolve. The nose is unforgiving, so conservative design and precise placement matter most; a doctor aims for a natural profile rather than an overdone tip. Swelling settles within a few days.

Our approach

We start with the lightest option that works, and step up only when it truly helps. That is the whole idea.
