What are thread lifts?

Thread lifts are sometimes called the “lunchtime facelift” because they are less invasive and painful than a facelift and have minimal downtime. They avoid scalpels used to remove sagging skin and instead utilize threads to suspend and stitch your skin. 

Collagen levels, which are responsible for your skin’s ability to heal and revitalize, can decrease as you age. Thread lifts trigger your system’s natural collagen production for improved firmness and texture. 

What are the benefits of thread lifts? 

Thread lifts most benefit those experiencing early signs of aging in their late 30s to early 50s and not looking for extensive surgery. Thread lifts benefits include:

• Increased and prolonged collagen production
• Reduced fine lines and wrinkles 
• Eyebrow lifting 
• Lifting or slimming of your nose 
• Neck lifting and line smoothing 
• Tightening of skin 
• Improved skin firmness and elasticity 
• Results lasting up to two years 

Overall, the results of a thread lift are elegant and natural. The procedure takes only an hour, and you can immediately return to daily activities.

What happens during a thread lift procedure? 

Your provider thoroughly examines your skin to be sure you’re a good candidate for a thread lift and informs you of any minimal risks coinciding with the procedure.

You are awake during the procedure, and they use a local anesthetic to ensure you are comfortable. Your provider uses a cannula (thin needle) to insert several threads under your skin at the treatment spot.

You may experience some swelling or bruising, so it’s important to take minor precautions after a thread lift procedure. Avoid washing your face for a day, and steer clear of makeup and moisturizers for several days. 

Depending on your needs, your provider may recommend sleeping upright or propped up for a week or taking medications to avoid infection. Fortunately, there is zero risk of severe bruising, scarring, or bleeding.
