Thread Lifts

A thread lift is a popular cosmetic procedure known in aesthetic medicine as the “lunch hour facelift”. Performed in as short as an hour with less pain and minimal recovery time compared to a traditional facelift, it is a relatively simple procedure that instantly creates a more youthful look.

Thread lift, which offers longer lasting results when compared to Botox and dermal fillers, involves the use of a special, implantable surgical thread that lifts sagging skin on the forehead, eyebrows, mid-face, and the neck. It can also be done on eye corners, laugh lines, forearm, and even the abdomen.

In thread lift, a tiny notch is made behind the hairline or behind the ears. Afterwards, fine threads or sutures are placed in strategic pre-planned areas marked along the contours. These threads have fine filaments such that they attach to the tissue and can be easily smoothened to create a natural look. When the body naturally produces new skin cells, they will surround the filament in the threads to create a subtle, yet very effective lift. Thread lifts offer many benefits including the following:

• Rejuvenates and makes skin look more rested and firm
• Allows a more defined facial contour
• Achieves a youthful look without scarring and the need for general anesthesia
• A more affordable option or alternative to a full facelift
• A quick and effective solution for a wide range of aging problems
