Thread lift technique and material comparison guide
Lowest listed price for Spiral Thread Lift at Abijou Gangnam in Seoul is ₩132,000~ (PDO Tornado 10 threads 1 Session · VAT excluded), Price observed 2026-10-14. Your final treatment plan, product choice and total cost are confirmed only after an in-person evaluation by the treating clinician at this branch.
A spiral thread lift places a helically shaped absorbable thread under the skin, a shape description that by itself says nothing about the polymer, the manufacturer, the specification or the insertion technique used. An ex vivo study designed to isolate what determines pull-out strength in barbed PLCL suspension threads found that angled insertion patterns produced significantly higher pull-out force than straight-line insertion (p<0.001), while its own authors describe the finding as a biomechanical proof of concept rather than a way to predict an individual thread’s performance. Because the sources cited here study insertion technique, material evidence and pooled complication rates rather than a shape called "spiral," this page treats material, manufacturer, specification and technique as the questions to compare across quotes.
A spiral or screw thread lift places a thread with a helical, coil-like structure under the skin, as distinct from a thread with directional barbs cut along a straight core. That description is about geometry only. It does not by itself say what polymer the thread is made of, how thick or long it is, or how the operator inserts it — three separate questions this page treats as the ones that actually decide what the procedure delivers.

The main building is about 100 m from Gangnam Station Exit 10. Gangnam Main and Gangnam New are two buildings of the same branch, not two nationwide branches.
Ask which material the planned thread is made of and why, the manufacturer and product name, how many threads are planned and at what length, what insertion technique the operator will use and why, and how the clinic manages each of the complications reported in the literature — edema, dimpling, paresthesia, infection, extrusion and a palpable or visible thread. Agree in advance on a contact route if a problem appears after you have left the clinic.
The lowest captured Spiral Thread Lift price is ₩132,000~ (PDO Tornado 10 threads 1 Session), excluding VAT, observed on 2026-10-14. The final amount depends on the confirmed product, area, amount and event eligibility.

No — they are two buildings of the same Gangnam branch. Gangnam Main is on floors 3, 11 and 13 of the Nude Zone Building. Your booking confirmation states which building to visit.
Gangnam Main is about 100 m from Exit 10, about a one-minute walk. From Exit 9 it is 126 m, about two minutes. Gangnam Station is served by Subway Line 2 and the Sinbundang Line.
On weekdays it closes between 14:00 and 15:00. Saturday runs 10:00–16:30 without a lunch break, so a Saturday slot avoids the midday gap.
No — Sunday and public holidays are closed. Weekdays run 10:00–20:00 with a lunch closure, and Saturday runs 10:00–16:30.
Availability on the booking menu does not mean a treatment is suitable for every visitor.
Consultation and treatment are provided by the medical team at this branch. The clinician shown leads the branch; the doctor assigned to your visit may vary, so confirm the assignment when booking.

We started in Gangnam in 2006 and the network now runs 17 branches across Korea. The line we work to is skin transformation woven into everyday life — care you can keep up with, rather than one dramatic intervention.
