Thread Lifts

How Does It Work?

Pulling the sagging tissue upwards to improve the contours of your face is the main part of the procedure. However, a thread lift can also be used to stimulate collagen and remove some fine wrinkles. This happens by placing tiny, self-absorbing sutures beneath the skin in the specific areas where you want to induce collagen growth. This can be done in areas such as the lips and cheeks.

These sutures can also be used to draw back folds and wrinkles to provide a lift. This can be an eyebrow lift, neck lift, and so on. In fact, these sutures can even be used to lift the tummy, arm flaps, breasts, and buttocks.

The procedure will be performed under a local anaesthetic, and the Pro-Nox system can be used to enhance patient comfort where needed. All in all, the procedure is not very invasive, and while you might have some slight swelling initially, there should not be any major side effects.
