Onyx V-Shape Thread Lift
V-shape contouring for a slimmer, more defined lower face.
- What is Onyx V?
- Onyx Thread Lift is a non-surgical V-shape facial contouring procedure using PDO/PCL absorbable cog threads — barbed sutures placed beneath the skin that lift jowls, redefine the jawline, and elevate the chin angle. Results are visible after treatment; the threads dissolve naturally over 12-18 months while continuing to stimulate native collagen production.

The Onyx V-Shape Thread Lift at Waleerat Clinic utilizes dissolvable threads strategically placed to lift and contour the lower face. This treatment is designed for individuals seeking to refine their jawline and chin angle, creating a more defined V-shape.

The price starts from ฿129,000 at Waleerat Clinic in Bangkok. This treatment is FDA-approved for use in Thailand.

Onyx threads are placed to redefine the V-line of the lower face — narrowing the jaw silhouette and lifting the chin angle for a more refined profile. The vectors run along the jawline and chin only, so it is a lower-face programme rather than a full-face lift: mid-face volume, eye area and neck are treated with different protocols.
It is usually planned as a multi-thread package (6 threads is the most commonly used) because a V-line needs symmetric tension on both sides. Best suited to patients whose main concern is a square or heavy lower face with mild jaw laxity.
Where it comes from, what's inside, who certifies it.
PDO/PLLA absorbable threads are fully synthetic polymers (polydioxanone / poly-L-lactic acid). No animal-derived components, no alcohol.

| Treatment | Mechanism | Duration | Results last | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Onyx V-Shape Thread Lift(this page) | V-shape contouring for a slimmer, more defined lower face. | 45 minutes | A firmer, more defined lower-face outline after treatment, refining further as collagen responds over 4–8 weeks. Typically lasts 12–18 months. | From ฿5,999 / Per thread | Square or heavy lower face |
| Ruby No.5 Baby-Face | A hydrating thread protocol for a softer, baby-face quality. | 45 minutes | A softer, more hydrated look with visible glow within 1–2 weeks. Typically lasts 6–9 months — the shortest of our thread programmes, because mono threads resorb faster. | From ฿2,599 / Per thread | Dull or dehydrated skin |
| Program Lipo Lifting X | Absorbable threads placed through the cheek and mid-face to lift and firm the face line, without surgery. | 45–60 minutes | The face line looks narrower as swelling settles over the first weeks. Threads are absorbable, so the result is not permanent and is refreshed when needed; how long it holds depends on anatomy, tissue thickness and weight change, and the physician gives you a realistic expectation at consultation. Individual results vary. | From ฿699 / per cc | A wide-looking cheek or mid-face rather than sagging skin |
| Grand Diamond Thread Lift | A signature full-face lift, engineered around your bone structure. | 60–90 minutes | A visible lift after the treatment; collagen remodelling continues 2–6 months. Lasts 18–24 months. | From ฿14,999 / Per thread | Facial sagging from age 35 onward |

Research-informed guidance for this treatment type. Your doctor’s written plan after assessment always takes priority.
Before your appointment
- Tell the doctor about medicines and supplements, bleeding or clotting conditions, active skin or dental infection, previous threads or surgery, allergies, smoking, and upcoming dental treatment.
- Do not stop prescribed medicine without agreement from the prescribing clinician.
- Confirm thread material, treatment vector, anaesthesia plan, expected recovery, and the clinic's urgent contact path.
After treatment
- Use a wrapped cool pack gently if advised; avoid direct pressure and do not massage the treated area.
- Sleep on your back with the head elevated for 5–7 nights and keep facial movement gentle.
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 2 weeks, strong heat or sauna for 3 weeks, and dental work or prolonged wide mouth opening for 4 weeks, unless your written plan differs.
- Use gentle cleansing after 24 hours and follow the clinic's makeup timing.
What may be expected
- Tenderness, swelling, bruising, tightness, dimpling or temporary asymmetry can occur early and should progressively settle.
