What is a thread facelift?
Thread lifting is an innovative method of non-surgical facelift that allows you to restore the oval, remove wrinkles and give the skin elasticity. During the procedure, special biocompatible face lifting threads are inserted under the skin, creating a strong frame that supports the tissue and stimulates the production of its own collagen. This is an effective way to achieve natural rejuvenation without a long rehabilitation period.
In which areas is thread lift used?
The technique is suitable for correcting various areas of the face and neck:
- Face oval – restoration of contour clarity, elimination of “floating” lines.
- Cheeks and cheekbones – tightening of sagging tissues, elimination of nasolabial folds.
- Eyebrows and area around the eyes – an open, expressive look without the effect of tension.
- Chin and neck – elimination of a double chin and flabbiness of the skin.
Stages of the procedure
- Consultation and diagnostics
A cosmetologist evaluates the skin condition, determines the correction zones and selects the optimal type of threads.
- Preparation
The area to be treated is cleaned, local anesthesia is administered for the patient's comfort.
- Insertion of threads
Using thin needles or cannulas, the doctor inserts absorbable or non-absorbable threads under the skin, forming a frame.
- Completion of the procedure
After installing the threads, the specialist does a light massage to distribute the material evenly.
Recovery after thread lift
After the procedure, slight swelling and redness are possible, which disappear within a few days. It is important to follow the doctor's recommendations:
- Avoid active facial expressions in the first 2 weeks.
- Avoid facial massage, baths and saunas for a month.
- Sleep on your back to prevent deformation of the threads.
Benefits of thread lift
- Instant effect – the tightening is noticeable immediately after the procedure.
- Long-lasting result – the skin continues to rejuvenate due to collagen production.
- Safety – the procedure is performed under local anesthesia and does not require complex recovery.
- No scars – threads are inserted through micro punctures that heal quickly.
- Natural rejuvenation – facial expression mobility and a natural look are preserved.
Results of thread lift
- Improvement of the face oval and clarity of contours.
- Smoothing of wrinkles and nasolabial folds.
- Skin lifting without surgery.
- Increasing skin firmness and elasticity (thread lift for skin tightening)
- Long-term effect (1.5−3 years).
How long does thread lift last?
The result lasts up to 3 years depending on the type of threads, your age and skin characteristics. The threads dissolve over time, but the process of natural rejuvenation continues due to the active synthesis of collagen – this is how thread lift works.
