Thread Face Lift

Since there is no surgery involved in a minimally invasive thread lift treatment, hence, you do not need to expect a significant downtime after your non surgical face lift. However, for the next few days, experts do advise the thread lift patients to take a break from all kinds of strenuous activities such as:

• Jogging
• Gym workouts 
• Swimming

Be sure to strictly follow the aftercare guidelines of your doctor to avoid any unwanted complications following your thread lift.

One of the biggest benefits of thread lifts at CosmeDocs is the instant gratification in the form of facial skin rejuvenation. Unlike in a surgical face lift, thread lift results are natural looking and aesthetically pleasing.

Patients can expect to notice:

• A lifted midface or lower face area
• Contoured facial features
• Softer look of nasolabial folds or laugh lines
• Snatched and defined jawline
• Tight and taut neck skin

Moreover, in a course of a few next months of your procedure, you can also expect to notice a firmer looking skin as thread lift stimulates collagen production.

A single treatment usually delivers excellent results for the most of our patients such as instant lift to drooping skin while also boosting collagen and elastin to support loose skin. You can pay us a visit six to nine months following your first treatment so that we can assess whether you require a second session. You shouldn’t need another procedure for three years after that.

PDO thread face lift procedure is quite effective aesthetic rejuvenation treatment for men and women dealing with sagging skin and loss of firmness. However, it cannot address loss of volume and wrinkle prevention or correction which are common signs of an aging skin.

Thread lifts are commonly combined with other injectable procedures, including as anti wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, and others. PDO threading is often coupled with the following treatment options:

• Since thread lifts are usually inadequate for treating Crow’s feet and frown lines around the brow and eyes, wrinkle relaxers like BOTOX® and Dysport® may be used with them to minimise their look.
• In order to get a lifted effect that is more similar to a surgical procedure or liquid facelift, a thread lift can be combined with a dermal filler, such as Restylane® or Sculptra®.

PDO threads are not permanent. However, the effects last longer than many other non-invasive cosmetic treatments such as hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers that last for up to 6 months. 

The majority of the patients at CosmeDocs report that their results have lasted for up to 2 years. Nevertheless, there are many factors that influence the longevity of the effects such as:

• Age of the patients
• Condition and health of the patient’s skin
• Material of the thread used for the thread lifts.

Even though this non-invasive skin tightening and lifting procedure is a low risk procedure with a safety profile and a proven efficacy record, there is always a slight chance that it may not go as per expectations. Some of the possible complications that a PDO thread lift caused are as follows:

• Infection
• Slight facial asymmetry
• Unwanted migration of threads
• Difficulty in facial movement or expressions

You can always avoid such a scenario by doing your due diligence and research on the procedure as well the doctor and the clinic. It is best to choose a place that has a good reputation with tons of satisfied thread lift before and after transformations as well as good reviews.

These subside in a few days but it is of vital importance that you choose the professional and experienced cosmetic doctor for the treatment to minimise the side effects.
