What is a "cog" thread, and is Cog a brand?
Cog is not a brand — it is a shape descriptor for a suture with small barbs cut or molded along the thread so the barbs catch tissue when the thread is placed under the skin. A published case series studying this shape describes it plainly as a "barbed polydioxanone (PDO) cog thread," with no brand attached to the term. Because the name only describes the barb shape, asking for "a cog thread lift" does not by itself specify which material, manufacturer or product a clinic will use.

How Abijou works
Abijou started in Gangnam in 2006 and opened the Myeongdong branch in March 2007. Myeongdong is where office workers and visitors to Seoul overlap, and a clinic that only opens on weekday afternoons misses most of both. Running with no lunch break and staying open on Sunday was a decision made for that reason. The line we work to is skin transformation woven into everyday life — care you can keep up with, rather than one dramatic intervention.
- Opened March 2007 — now one of 17 Abijou branches nationwide
- Open Saturday and Sunday, and no lunch break on any day of the week
- We quote the official published price list as it stands
- Across the 17 branches in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon and Busan: over 1,000 medical professionals and more than 350 certified medical devices
- Authentic products only, in appropriate amounts — the treatment is fitted to the condition, not to a package
