Threads are a non-surgical alternative to a traditional face or neck lift, but without the usual expense, recovery and downtime. The minimally invasive procedure is designed to raise the brows, cheeks, neck and jowls, and to soften smile lines around the mouth and nose, giving you a fast facelift. You’ll rewind time gaining a relaxed, refreshed appearance, while preserving and enhancing the contour of your face.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thread Lifts involve a small injection of local anaesthetic to the treatment area. After this, the thread is placed under the skin using a fine needle (no incision required). The tissue is then slightly compressed and reshaped by hand to obtain the desired lifting effect and skin tightening. Unlike a regular facelift, there’s no risk of scarring.
Thread Lifts can be used to treat many different parts of the face. You can redefine your facial contour, firming up the skin and giving your cheeks a fuller look. Treating the lower jaw also helps you regain facial definition while contouring your cheeks. Cheeks and cheekbones can benefit from lifts too, appearing fuller with a reduced nasolabial fold (those indented lines running down between the edges of your nose and mouth). Finally, eyebrows can be reshaped, opening up the eyes and raising the outer edge of the brow.
Thread Lifts feel like a light pinch, and you may experience slight pressure or a ‘stinging’ sensation during injection.
Results are almost immediate but typically improve over 3 to 6 months. How long threads last depends on their thickness, quality and your body’s metabolism rate. Most patients find that their threads dissolve within 6 to 9 months, although results often last longer, particularly after repeat treatments.
Treatments usually take between 30 and 45 minutes.
There may be some light swelling, bruising and redness immediately following the procedure, but any side effects normally dissipate in a few days. Facial movement may be somewhat limited for 2 to 3 weeks, but you can enjoy normal daily activities within an hour.
