Thread Lifts

What are Thread Lifts?

Thread lifts are a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging skin, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance without the need for surgery. This innovative treatment uses dissolvable threads made of biocompatible materials, such as polydioxanone (PDO), which are carefully inserted beneath the skin to provide immediate lift and stimulate the body’s natural collagen production over time.

How Do They Work?

During a thread lift procedure, fine threads are strategically placed under the skin to gently pull and lift sagging areas, such as the cheeks, jawline, neck, or brow. These threads act as a scaffold, providing immediate support to the skin and creating a subtle, natural-looking lift. Over time, the threads dissolve, but not before stimulating collagen production, which helps improve skin texture, firmness, and elasticity for long-lasting results.

Why Consider a Thread Lift?

Thread lifts are ideal for those seeking a natural-looking lift with minimal downtime. The procedure can effectively address mild to moderate sagging, offering a subtle rejuvenation for those not ready for more invasive surgical options. The results are typically visible immediately, with continued improvement over several months as new collagen forms. The effects of a thread lift can last from 12 to 18 months, depending on individual factors and the type of thread used.

What to Expect During Treatment

The procedure is quick, usually taking less than an hour, and is performed under local anaesthesia to minimise discomfort. You may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness, which generally subsides within a few days. Most patients can return to their normal activities shortly after treatment, making thread lifts an attractive option for those looking for effective facial rejuvenation without the downtime of surgery.
