How long does the pain last after a thread lift?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A1. Most patients feel a dull ache or tightness for 3\u20135 days. Over-the-counter pain relief is usually enough to manage it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. When will I see the final results?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A2. While you see an instant lift, the &#8220;final look&#8221; appears after 3 months once the swelling is gone and new collagen has started to form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. Can I get a thread lift and fillers at the same time?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A3. Yes! Combining a thread lift with fillers for volume is a popular trend in Korea for a more &#8220;balanced&#8221; and natural anti-aging effect.
