Thread Lifting

A minimally invasive treatment designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin, thread lifting offers a subtle yet effective alternative to surgical facelifts. Using dissolvable threads placed under the skin, this treatment provides immediate structural support while stimulating collagen production for long-term skin tightening.


Thread Lifting

Benefits of Thread Lifting

Lift & Define – Helps reposition sagging skin, enhancing the contours of the face.

Stimulates Collagen Production – Supports natural skin rejuvenation for improved firmness and elasticity.

Minimally Invasive with Short Recovery – No incisions or general anesthesia, with less downtime than surgery.

Progressive, Long-Lasting Results – Immediate lifting effect, followed by gradual collagen remodeling over the next few months.

Customizable Treatment Areas – Can be tailored to lift the cheeks, jawline, neck, brows, or other areas of concern.

What Type of Threads Do We Use?

We use a selection of high-quality threads tailored to individual needs, with a focus on both lifting strength and collagen stimulation:

✔ APTOS Threads – Made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and caprolactone, APTOS threads offer a gradual, natural-looking lift while significantly improving skin quality over time. Their composition stimulates prolonged collagen production, leading to firmer, more elastic skin with long-lasting results. APTOS threads are ideal for those seeking subtle yet enduring facial rejuvenation.

✔ MINT Threads – Composed of polydioxanone (PDO), MINT threads provide a stronger mechanical lift due to their molded barbs, making them highly effective for significant repositioning of sagging skin. While the lifting effect is immediate and more dramatic, PDO threads tend to dissolve faster than PLLA-based threads, meaning results may not last as long as those from APTOS threads. MINT threads are well-suited for individuals seeking a more defined contour in the lower face, jawline, or mid-face with a shorter recovery period.

The choice between APTOS and MINT threads depends on desired longevity, skin type, and the level of lift required. A consultation will determine the best approach to achieve a balanced, natural, and refreshed appearance.

Thread Lifting

How It Works

Thread lifting involves the placement of biodegradable threads beneath the skin to provide both an immediate lifting effect and long-term collagen stimulation. These threads are made of materials such as polydioxanone (PDO), poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), or polycaprolactone (PCL), all of which naturally dissolve over time while supporting skin rejuvenation.

The treatment works in two phases:

  1. Immediate Lift – The threads mechanically reposition sagging tissue, providing an instant firming effect.
  2. Collagen Stimulation – Over the following months, the threads encourage collagen production, further tightening and improving skin quality.

Results typically last between 12–24 months, depending on the type of thread used and individual skin response.

Who Is It For?

Thread lifting may be suitable for individuals who:
✔ Have mild to moderate skin laxity and want a non-surgical lifting effect.
✔ Want to enhance definition in areas such as the jawline, cheeks, brows, or neck.
✔ Prefer a gradual, natural improvement rather than an overdone or dramatic change.
✔ Are looking for a minimally invasive alternative to a surgical facelift.

It may not be suitable for those with severe skin laxity, where a surgical approach may provide better long-term results.

FAQ

How long do results last?

Results last between 12–24 months, depending on the type of threads used and individual collagen response.

Is the procedure painful?

A local anesthetic is used to ensure comfort. Some discomfort, swelling, or bruising may occur post-treatment but typically resolves within a week.

How soon will I see results?

An immediate lifting effect is noticeable right after treatment, with continued improvement over 3 months as collagen production increases.
