Thread Face Lift

Are you looking for instant, natural and quality results without invasive surgery?

A thread face lift uses minimally invasive absorbable threads to treat sagging skin. During this procedure, threads made of an FDA cleared material are inserted below the surface of the skin to instantly lift sagging tissue as well as stimulate collagen production.

As you age, the production of elastin and collagen dramatically decreases which contributes to wrinkles and loose, sagging skin. These effects present on the face as heavy nasolabial folds, deep smile lines, jowls and sunken cheeks. Threads are intended to instantly lift up loose skin on the face and neck with minimal pain and downtime. The results can be seen immediately, so you can look and feel your best in no time.

Lifting threads can reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds, jowls, marionette lines, an undefined jawline, downturned corners of the mouth and flattened cheeks. They can be used as an alternative to fillers or can be used to compliment dermal fillers. We often lift the skin first using threads and then use filler to treat any remaining volume loss in the face.

In our office we offer MINT™ PDO threads as these threads have received two FDA clearances, have a patented 360 degree helical mold and high tensile strength. This provides maximum anchoring strength to effectively lift and reposition the skin tissue.

During the procedure, injectable lidocaine is used to increase patient comfort. The procedure takes anywhere from 30-60 minutes and mild bruising can occur. There are restrictions in regards to heavy exercise and excessive facial expressions following the procedure but otherwise patients can return to their normal, daily activities.

Patients will see immediate results after the procedure that can last up to one year.
