Thread Lifts

Thread lifts are non-surgical face lifting procedure that is gaining popularity and efficacy. Thread lifts are a good option for those aged 30 to 60 years, for whom gentle sagging may be apparent, but collagen deposits are still enough for regeneration. Younger patients who want to improve their facial contours, or those with facial asymmetry may also consider this treatment.

How it works?

It involves the use of threads or sutures made from the same materials used in surgery to close wounds. When placed under the skin, they can be used to tighten and add volume on areas of the face that are loose or sagging. Much like suspension cables, they are designed to hold up the skin in place and provide a supportive structure that defies the effects of gravity and aging.

What to expect after treatment ?

The results are immediately visible and continue to improve in the next 2 months as collagen remodeling takes effect. The threads are invisible, although can sometimes be palpated (felt with the fingers) in certain areas. Some patients feel minimal discomfort such as a slight ache or sensation while chewing or smiling, but this fades within the first week. Slight dimpling, bruising, and swelling is normal within the first few days, but improve rapidly as the sutures are absorbed. The incisions made for the entry and exit points are tiny and heal without unsightly stitches.
