Threads for Face Lift, Tightening, Acne & More

Thread Lift Treatment

If a person has loose skin on their face, it might cause them to grow jowls or drooping cheeks. Some people decide to have cosmetic surgeries like thread lifting to tighten this loose skin for aesthetic purposes. A thread lift is a cosmetic procedure that can help pull loose facial skin. A thread lift is a procedure that intends to tighten the skin on the face. It is a slightly invasive alternative to a facelift.

Procedure?
During a thread lift at our clinic, our skilled team uses a temporary suture, or "thread," to lift up portions of the skin. Our surgeons insert a thin needle or cannula into the skin. They can then use this to insert threads beneath the skin to lift the skin up. Inserting and slightly pulling threads and barbs draws the skin up, lifting and tightening the face. As well as lifting the skin and making it look tighter, thread lifts can also encourage the body to direct large amounts of collagen to the treated areas.

Which areas of the face can our surgeon lift?
According to our experienced and professional surgeons, a thread lift is an option for treating:
sagging eyebrows
premature loosening of the skin on the neck
early loosening of the facial structures
Jowls

Who can get this procedure?
Thread lift procedures can be helpful for anyone who wants to decrease the appearance of wrinkles, sagging skin, or early jowls. They may also be appropriate for people with sagging skin. A complete facelift procedure involves the person going under a general anesthetic. A thread lift only involves a local anesthetic. This means a thread lift is a great option for individuals with specific conditions that can make them unqualified for surgery under a general anesthetic. These conditions include high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

Benefits of thread lifting

This cosmetic procedure has a lot of benefits. Some of them include the following:
A thread lift involves a lesser amount of recovery time than a facelift. A thread lift is much less invasive and does not involve heavy sedation. During a facelift, an individual gets a general anesthetic. Afterward, the person must organize for someone to drive them home from the hospital. They might also require help from a caregiver for around 3 days after the surgery.
Thread lifts are low-risk and noninvasive. This means that there is practically no risk of scarring. Scarring is often a matter of people who undergo a surgical facelift. Due to the noninvasive nature of thread lifts, an individual is at low risk of problems.
The technique does not require a general anesthetic. This means that an individual having a thread lift is not at risk of developing side effects associated with a general anesthetic. Thread lifts are more inexpensive than full facelifts. This is because they are simpler to perform and do not involve a general anesthetic.
