A thread lift is the traditional facelift’s less invasive younger sibling. As the name would suggest, thread lifts use unique threads made of clear polypropylene, which are inserted through small incisions using a needle. These threads have small cones on the end that grab and pull at the skin underneath the surface to lift and tighten the skin. These hypodermic needles are inserted superficially into the soft tissue, where they can grip and pull to reposition the skin. No worries the face is numbed prior and the downtime is minimal. Really just a day or two maximum.
Threads with small cones, as described above, can also be inserted individually and used to grip and tighten the skin as needed.
The unreal part? The threads actually stay in your body. They’re surgical sutures that are made of a synthetic and absorbable polydioxanone or PDO. They’re the same kind of sutures that are used in surgery, and PDO is considered one of the safest materials and very few people react to this material. The PDO helps your body stimulate collagen and increases tissue healing, therefore, causing an Anti-aging effect.
