What is it?
The ThreadLift is a simple, minimally invasive non-surgical
procedure that takes about an hour and provides many of the
benefits of a conventional facelift. Tiny barbed threads called
prolene sutures are implanted to lift and support drooping tissue
including brow, cheeks, face and neck.
What does it help & not help?
Usually helps with:
Moderate facial droopiness, providing up to 70 percent
of the lift of a surgical facelift without the associated
surgical risks and recovery issues.
Will not help with:
Excessive facial droopiness
How long will it last? Appearance benefits of The ThreadLift are noticeable for 3-5
years and longer.
Surgical Considerations The ThreadLift is performed under local anesthesia in an accredited
outpatient surgery center or hospital. For about a day, there
may be slight bruising and swelling, which can be concealed with
makeup.
