THREAD LIFT: ALL FACE

Procedure Overview

A Thread Lift is a type of procedure wherein temporary sutures are used to produce a subtle but visible “lift” in the skin. Instead of removing the patient’s loose facial skin surgically, the cosmetic surgeon simply suspends it by stitching up portions of it. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face. In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat aging in another way: by provoking the body’s “healing response” and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas. This is important because of the vital role collagen plays in the aging process.

What happens after the operation?

Typically, patients return to daily activities, including a return to work, within 1 week after procedure . Expect your face to feel tight for a few weeks, and know that bruising and swelling are normal . After 1 week you should be in minimal discomfort and be able to return to light duties at work at 1 week. We ask that you refrain from strenuous activity or exercise until 6 weeks after your surgery. Bruising and discoloration of the face may be visible for the first 2 weeks. The face will initially be swollen and this will subside over 1 weeks.
