Thread Lift

Loose hanging skin can alter your facial appearance and is a common cause for people to lose their self-confidence as they age. While some treatments remove the loose skin surgically, a thread lift treatment can suspend a few portions of it.

A Thread Lift Treatment is a minimally-invasive cosmetic treatment during which a dermatologist or a trained cosmetic surgeon puts fibres under the skin to pull it back. Since it is not a surgical treatment, the recovery time following this treatment is quick.

What is

What is Thread Lift?

The Thread Lift Treatment is not just a corrective treatment for ageing signs but also stimulates the body’s healing response and triggers collagen production in large amounts. A rise in collagen fibres in the skin delays ageing, improves skin firmness, texture, and volume, and keeps it hydrated and supple.

This treatment can be combined with other aesthetic treatments like Dermal Fillers for specific skin conditions.

Thread Types

Different types of threads used in this treatment

Polydioxanone or PDO threads: A PDO thread lift uses dissolvable sutures to lift your sagging skin and rejuvenate it.

These are derived from a biocompatible material derived from lactic acid. These threads are resorbable and regenerate collagen over a more extended period of time.

Polycaprolactone or PCA threads are newer than PDO threads and comprise monofilament threads of synthetic origin. These are bioabsorbable threads.

  • Areas of the Face
  • Eyebrows

how it works

How Does the Thread Lifts Work?

A Thread Lift Treatment works in different ways based on the area being treated. There are two ways by which thread lifts work:

  • Temporary threads are placed under your skin that pull it back or up, giving your skin a tighter experience.
  • The thread used under your skin: Some threads give your facial skin an instantly lifted look.

The basic technique for a thread lift treatment is:

  • You will be asked to get comfortable and recline in the treatment room.
  • Your doctor will apply a topical anaesthetic or alcohol to the treatment area to numb it.
  • A cannula or a thin needle is used to insert the threads under your skin. This step can take around 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Once all the threads have been inserted, the cannula or needle is removed. You might feel mild tightening under the skin.

You will be allowed to go home after the treatment and return to your daily activities.
