A face thread lift begins with a consultation with a qualified practitioner who assesses your facial structure, skin condition, and aesthetic goals to determine if the procedure is right for you.
Your face is thoroughly cleansed, and local both, topical and injectable, anesthesia are applied to minimize discomfort. The practitioner marks the insertion and exit points where the threads will be placed, focusing on lifting the cheek area, jawline, and marionette lines. Using a thin needle or cannula, they insert biodegradable threads under the skin. These threads are gently pulled to lift and tighten the skin in the targeted areas, with adjustments made to achieve the desired effect. Once the lift is satisfactory, the threads are secured, and any excess is trimmed. The threads have tiny barbs or cones that anchor them in place within the tissue.
Results are immediately visible, with continued improvement as collagen production is stimulated over the following weeks and months. The effects of a thread lift can last from one to two years, depending on the type of threads used and individual factors.
