Thread lifting
As we age, gravity takes a big toll on our skin. Sagging, drooping and wrinkles occur over time. This may make you feel self-conscious, and you may find ways to appear youthful again by re-tightening and plumping the skin.
The problem is that there aren't many non-surgical options, until now.
With thread lifting, the results are slightly more subtle and natural. What's more is, the procedure is quite simple, and after the implementation of the threads, the skin experiences a boost in the production of natural collagen. Not only can the threads be used to lift the face, but they can aesthetically alter the face in other ways as well.
What is a Thread Lift procedure?
A thread lift procedure is a short procedure that focuses on targeting the signs of ageing on the lower face. It involves the placement of threads that are pulled to achieve the desired lift in the skin. Although it can address cheek sagging and eyebrow sagging, and cheek sagging, thread lift often can also target the midface, jowl, and neck-lifting.
Thread lift procedure: What to expect
You will be asked to lie on a bed in the room where your procedure is being done. A local anaesthetic and alcohol will be applied to your skin to prepare the skin. Next, a thin needle is used to insert the threads underneath your skin. Inserting the threads can anyways between 30 to 45 minutes. After the needles are removed, your procedure will be complete, and you will be free to go home.
