Not only have we dedicated ourselves to performing only thread lift procedures, but we have also opened the first and only thread lifting research center in Korea. Our skills and materials are backed up with science and data – we have used our copious amounts of experience to develop exclusive threads for PangPang patients.
Exclusive Pink Lift Threads

Carrying the PangPang name, they are the result of the clinic’s top-tier expertise and unwavering dedication – designed for effective results even with just one thread.
About the Thread Lift Procedure
How is a Thread Lift Done?
A thread lift involves inserting medical-grade threads created especially for lifting into the subcutaneous layer of the skin, and then lifting and pulling it into the desired position. The thread ends are then trimmed so as not to be visible from the surface of the skin. The lifting effect is achieved thanks to small cogs on the threads that hold the skin in position after being lifted, as well as encouraging the skin’s natural collagen production. Over time, these threads dissolve, meaning thread removal is not necessary.
Step 1 – Lift
Powerfully lift the jawline and cheeks where elasticity is lost and skin sags.
Step 2 – Volume
Restore the volume of the mouth area where both sagging and sinking occur.
Step 3 – Hold
Insert tightening threads for a strong hold that prevents sagging.

Thread Lift: The PangPang Way
The future of Thread Lifting: Sculpting, not just placing.
Thread lifting is evolving from simply ‘lifting’ to ‘shaping’, or as our doctors at Pangpang Clinic like to call it: ‘sculpting’. Placement, angle and vector matter as much as the thread itself. Our doctors have a developed a technique wherein they plan vectors to harmonize with your facial anatomy, aiming for natural movement and soft transitions rather than an over-pulled look. Results vary by individual, but techniques is the single most important factor in achieving a refund outcome.
Types of Threads Used for a Thread Lift
Here at PangPang Clinic, we have 31 types of lifting (cog) threads available for our patients to choose from, all in order to personalize your treatment down to the last thread. Besides the classic lifting threads, we also offer volume threads, tightening mono threads, and detail mono threads. In combination, our variety of threads provide a superior thread lifting experience with more precise effects, lengthened results, and increased confidence.
Lifting Threads
Called ‘cog threads’, these threads have barbs along them and are used to directly lift skin tissue. The cogs on the threads provide enhanced fixation and hold.
Volume Threads
These are smooth threads that come in a twist or spring shape. They’re used to help fill in sunken areas, and as such are commonly used to treat wrinkles.
Tightening Mono Threads
These smooth, straight threads tighten the skin and fat layers together, and stimulate collagen production and fat breakdown in the area of application.
Detail Mono Threads
These are smooth, fine threads that are used in delicate areas requiring precise shaping, such as the areas around the nose and lips.
PangPang’s Exclusive Lifting Threads

By analyzing our accumulated data on thread lifts in our thread lifting research center – the only one of its kind in Korea – we have created the optimal threads for thread lifting: Pink Lift: Dual and Pink Lift: Fix. Available exclusively at PangPang Clinic, a thread lift with our Pink Threads delivers the best results in terms of lifting effect and longevity of results.
