Threads are a non-surgical, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment which involves using biodegradable threads, typically made of polydioxanone (PDO), to lift and tighten sagging or wrinkled skin on various parts of the face and body. The threads stimulate collagen production in the targeted areas, providing long-lasting results with minimal downtime.

How Does Thread Lifting Work?

Thread lifting works by inserting thin needles into specific areas of sagging skin before threading PDO sutures through them. These sutures then create an anchor point for tissue stimulation while simultaneously creating scaffolds under our skin so it can stay lifted even after its deployment has been completed. Over time these thread sutures dissolve causing new collagen growth rejuvenating sagging…

Is Thread Lifting Safe?

Yes! PDO threads have been used in surgical procedures and medical applications for decades, making their safety profile well-established. As a result, thread-lifts offer patients minimal risks when performed by certified practitioners.

No! Patients may experience mild discomfort during or right after the procedure due to needle insertions; however, there should be no significant pain beyond this initial stage.

Who Can Benefit from Thread Lifting Procedures?

Thread lifting procedures can benefit both younger patients who want preventative measures against aging as well as those looking to counteract signs of aging such as saggy facial features or wrinkles.

What Areas Can Be Treated By Using This Method?

Thread lifts can target many different areas, including:

How Long Does A Thread Lift Last?

The results typically last between 12-24 months depending on each individual patient’s response to the treatment. PDO threads can continue stimulating collagen production for up to two years after insertion, so they have a prolonged effect.
