Lifting Threads

Lifting threads treatment involves the use of biocompatible threads that are strategically placed underneath the skin to lift and support sagging tissues. These threads are designed to stimulate collagen production, promoting skin firmness and elasticity for a lifted and rejuvenated look. Thread lifts can target areas of the face and neck that may have lost volume and elasticity over time.

How Lifting Threads Work

Lifting threads work by utilising a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that aims to tighten and lift the skin on the face. The procedure involves the insertion of special threads with tiny barbs into the facial tissue through small incisions. These threads provide support and lift to the skin, creating a rejuvenating and lifting effect.

The process begins with a detailed assessment to identify areas of the face or body that require lifting. A facial map is created, and vectors are determined to guide the placement of the lifting threads. The threads are strategically inserted to lift sagging skin and redefine contours, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

Lifting threads work in two ways: they provide immediate mechanical support through the lifting action of the threads, and they stimulate collagen production in the skin. The presence of the threads encourages the body to produce new collagen around the threads, further enhancing the skin's firmness and elasticity over time.

By combining immediate lifting effects with long-term collagen stimulation, lifting threads offer a non-surgical solution to address sagging skin and restore a more youthful appearance.
