Thread lift

Also known as a non-surgical facelift, a thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure which does not require incisions or general anesthesia. The procedure utilizes temporary sutures or “threads” to produce a visible “lift” in the skin, particularly in the face. Contrary to a facelift where a patient’s loose facial skin is surgically removed, the threads are introduced via a cannula into the deeper layers of the skin, anchor onto the sagging tissue, and the thread is lifted upwards to achieve an instant, rejuvenating & contouring effect to the face.

In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat aging in another way: by provoking the body’s “healing response” and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas..Collagen helps support “growth factors” that greatly influences the condition of our skin by keeping it strong, voluminous and supple.

Who is a good candidate for a Thread Lift?

A thread lift is safe for adults who keep up with healthy lifestyles and have maintained their weight for at least three months.

What is the recovery time associated with a thread lift? 

After the procedure, patients may immediately return to daily lives, but they should avoid intense activities and exercise for 1-2 weeks post treatment.

How long do the results last? 

Patients will see immediate results after the procedure that can last up to 12-18 months

Are there additional benefits to the procedure?

Patients  can also experience improvement in skin texture, fine lines, and elasticity from collagen stimulation and neovascularization.  As a result, after about 6-8 months when the threads are completely dissolved by the body, the results will last for about 3-6 months more due to the collagen stimulation. With minimal scarring and downtime, it is an amazing option for patients looking into achieving instant and natural-looking results.
