How do thread lifts work?

A thread lift involves the use of temporary sutures to produce a subtle but visible lift in the skin around the face. Instead of surgically removing loose facial skin, portions of the face are resuspended. This has the effect of pulling back the skin and tightening the face.

The thread lift procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Special fine threads with barbs or cogs are placed under the skin using special needles. The barbs allow the threads to anchor to the tissues. When they are in the correct position, the top ends of the threads are pulled, tightened and secured to mobilise soft tissues into the new position.

Once the threads are in place, they stimulate collagen production around them. This helps in securing the tissues in the new lifted position, with further improvement seen over the following months.  

The number of threads used and the exact placement site depends on patient’s needs, facial structure and degree of sagging. Our experienced doctors use a number of different types of thread depending on what is most suitable for the patient.

The entire treatment takes less than an hour, and the recovery time is minimal compared to traditional facelift surgery, with low risk for scarring and bruising. Some discomfort is experience when local anaesthesia is injected, but no or minimal discomfort is felt after that.

Anchoring thread lift

We use anchoring threads, which have tiny barbs that gather the skin to produce a noticeable lift. The barbs are strategically placed to hook into surrounding tissue to lift and hold it in place, and then anchored into the brow, temple or scalp. The threads are hidden from sight in the hairline. Thicker barbed threads can also be used to lift the breasts and buttocks.

Frequently asked questions

What are the possible side effects or disadvantages of thread lifts?
As with any other procedure, side effects are far less encountered when the thread lift procedure is performed by an experienced clinician and when patients adhere to before- and after-care instructions. However, some patients experience:
  • Bruising and swelling
  • Skin puckering and dimpling
  • Infection
  • Thread breakage and migration (very rare with newer threads and good technique)

The usual recovery period following the thread lift procedure is 5-7 days.

How long does thread lift take?

The thread lift procedure takes 60-90 minutes. It is performed under local anaesthetic and is minimally invasive.

How many threads are used in thread lift?

The type of threads used, their number and placement site vary depending on facial structure and degree of sagging.

How can I optimise my results after thread lift?

To optimise outcomes, alternative treatments may be advised in addition to thread lift, such as dermal fillers or double chin treatment.

How painful is a thread lift?

You will not feel any pain during a thread lift procedure because local anaesthetic is used. You may experience some soreness during healing.
