Thread Lifts

A thread lift, sometimes referred to as a suture or stitch lift, is a minimally invasive facelift. Nothing is cut. Instead, threads are strategically placed to rectify laxity, improve firmness and streamline the face and neck.

The threads do more than provide an instant lift. They also stimulate collagen production as the skin heals around them, making the skin more resilient from the inside out.

The threads are sterile strands of surgical material that are completely compatible with the human body. In fact, the skin eventually absorbs the threads on its own.

Because the threads contain tiny barbs, they anchor themselves to the skin, pulling just enough to provide a lift where it’s needed. This ends up creating a natural look. It’s not as dramatic as a surgical facelift, but it creates subtle support without incisions or scarring.

Thread lifts are ideal for people who are at least 30 years old who would like to raise their jowls, jawline, neck and mid-face. The perfect candidates are those with mild or moderate skin laxity. Those with extremely loose skin may not benefit from the procedure.
