What is a thread lift?
A thread lift places fine, dissolvable PDO (polydioxanone) threads under the skin. Some threads have tiny cogs that gently reposition tissue for an immediate lift. Others work mainly by stimulating collagen, which improves firmness over the following months.
How it works
The area is numbed with local anaesthetic, then the threads are inserted through tiny entry points using a fine needle or cannula. You’ll leave with no stitches, and most people return to work within a few days.
Aftercare
- Avoid wide mouth opening, chewing gum and facial massage for 2 weeks.
- Sleep on your back with your head raised for 5 nights.
- No dental treatment, saunas or intense exercise for 2 weeks.
Results vary from person to person. A medical consultation is required to confirm suitability.
