Thread Lift: The Instant Facelift Solution

A thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves inserting medical-grade threads into the skin to lift and tighten it. These threads, made of a material such as polydioxanone (PDO), stimulate the production of collagen, a protein that supports the skin’s structure and elasticity. Collagen production slows down as we age, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin.

During a thread lift procedure, a doctor or nurse practitioner inserts the threads under the skin using a needle or cannula. Once in place, the threads are lifted to tighten the skin. The threads remain under the skin, gradually dissolving over several months while the skin continues to produce collagen. The results of a thread lift typically last one to two years.

A good candidate for a thread lift is someone who has mild to moderate skin laxity and wants a less invasive option than a facelift. Thread lifts are most effective on the cheeks, jowls, and neck. People with more severe sagging or excess skin may not be good candidates for a thread lift and may require a facelift instead.

Before the procedure, the provider will mark the areas where the threads will be inserted. The skin is numbed with a local anesthetic, and the threads are inserted using a needle or cannula. The provider then lifts and tightens the skin by adjusting the threads. The procedure usually takes one to two hours, depending on the extent of the treatment.

After a thread lift, the provider may advise you to avoid strenuous activity, heavy lifting, or excessive facial expressions for a few days. Some swelling and bruising are common, but this usually subsides within a few days. You should avoid sleeping on your side or stomach and should keep your head elevated for the first few nights.

The benefits of a thread lift include a more youthful appearance, improved skin texture and tone, and minimal downtime. Unlike a facelift, a thread lift is a less invasive procedure that does not require general anesthesia, surgical incisions, and a lengthy recovery period. Additionally, a thread lift is more affordable than a facelift and can be performed in a doctor’s office.

While both procedures aim to lift and tighten the skin, a facelift is a surgical procedure that involves making incisions and removing excess skin and tissue. A facelift is more invasive than a thread lift and requires general anesthesia. The recovery period for a facelift is typically longer than that of a thread lift. However, a facelift may provide longer-lasting and more dramatic results than a thread lift.

How long does a thread lift last?

A thread lift typically lasts one to two years. The results vary depending on the individual’s skin type, lifestyle, and the number of threads used.
