What Is Thread Lift Treatment?
The thread lift treatment is a non-invasive cosmetic technique that tightens loose, saggy wrinkled skin on the face and neck. Dermatologists use special threads to lift your skin while stimulating your body to manufacture more collagen. These threads are available in a wide range of materials and lengths.
The thread lift is a simple method that doesn’t involve surgery and yields minor benefits. It’s also known as a “lunchtime facelift” because it’s a quick treatment with minimal downtime. It is a cosmetic procedure that uses a medical grade thread to tighten and shape the skin in various areas of the body. It can tighten your skin, reduce sagging, and restore youthful contours to your face. A thread lift, unlike a facelift, is a non-surgical procedure with limited effects.

How Long Do The Thread Lift Treatment Results Last?
The thread lift treatment results last between 1 to 3 years as the threads progressively disintegrate and are absorbed by the body; however, the precise period varies based on the kind of threads used as well as individual characteristics such as skin type and healing reaction.
How To Prepare For A Thread Lift Treatment?
To prepare for Thread Lift Treatment, you should follow the pre-treatment guidelines, including;
- Before the procedure, your dermatologist or skin doctor will explain the procedure thoroughly about what will happen before the treatment, how the treatment works, and what you need to expect from it.
- Unlike surgical procedures, you don’t need any general anesthesia prior to treatment.
- The dermatologist will administer local anesthesia which means you will be awake but feel no pain during the procedure.
What To Expect During Thread Lift Treatment?
You can expect the following during Thread Lift Treatment;
- The thread lift process begins with the administration of local anesthetic to keep you comfortable throughout.
- Your doctor will next use fine needles or cannulas to carefully apply sutures to the specific places.
- This minimally invasive procedure normally takes around an hour to perform.
- The threads also boost the body’s own collagen synthesis.
- The threads eventually disintegrate, but their presence stimulates collagen creation in your body’s fibroblasts.
- Collagen is a protein that helps the skin maintain its structure and elasticity. Increased collagen production promotes skin firmness, texture, and overall rejuvenation, which can last longer than the threads themselves.
- Following the procedure, the doctor further tugs and pulls the thread in an upward position to cause the tightening of loose skin and underlying tissues.
- Furthermore, ends are sutured under the skin’s surface to provide structural support.
- Once these threads get in place, you won’t be able to see and feel them anymore.
Recovery Period
The thread lift treatment doesn’t require much serious recovery period. While other procedures that involve cutting and rearranging facial tissues take many days to fully heal the patient.
Following the treatment, you can resume your normal routine with ease. There can be a little bruising and swelling. But don’t be worried; it’s natural.
