Ponyorin Frequently Asked Questions

Ponyorin involves inserting threads into the nasolabial folds and the sagging skin around the mouth, which is expected to smooth out unevenness around the mouth.

This treatment is ideal for those who want to naturally tighten the skin around their mouth or who are starting to notice mild sagging.

Yes. You can expect it to help smooth out the mild sagging and unevenness that cause nasolabial folds.

Depending on the cause and severity of sagging, we may combine treatments such as hyaluronic acid injections and thread lifts.

A major difference between Ponyorin and standard thread lifts is that it features cogs (small protrusions) arranged from both ends of the thread toward the center.

By pulling the areas of concern—such as nasolabial folds and the sides of the mouth—toward the center from both sides, it smooths out localized unevenness.

The number of threads required varies depending on the degree of sagging, the treatment area, and the desired results.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we examine the condition of the area around your mouth during your consultation to determine the appropriate number of implants and their placement.

The treatment typically takes about 20 to 40 minutes.

The time required varies depending on the number of implants inserted and the treatment area.

Ponyorin is a procedure that involves relatively little downtime—such as pain or swelling—and has minimal impact on daily life.

For about a week after the treatment, the needle marks may look like moles or brown spots.

We use nitrous oxide anesthesia during the procedure to ensure you feel as little pain as possible.

Pain, bruising, swelling, or puffiness may occur after the procedure.

Ponyorin typically lasts for about 6 months.

Since the duration of the effects varies from person to person, we will determine the timing of follow-up treatments based on the condition of your skin and any sagging.

Yes. Ponyorin can be performed not only on its own but also in combination with other thread lifts.

We combine the necessary treatments based on the causes of sagging and the areas of concern.

At YAYOI CLINIC, four Ponyorin treatments cost 196,000 yen, and each additional treatment costs 60,000 yen.

Since the fee varies depending on the number of units used, we will determine the required number during your consultation.
