Thread Lift

You don’t have to go under the knife to get a facelift. A thread lift is a non-surgical procedure which creates a general facial lift in order to refresh and renew facial features for a younger look.

This treatment avoids the high cost as well as the risks and complications of the surgical route. It also offers a natural-looking result after healing. 

How does a thread lift work?

Threads are added around specific points on the facial structure which can be manipulated so that certain features can be lifted and sculpted as desired.

An added benefit of this process is that sterile threads, once added to the skin, can trigger the production of new skin cells and collagen, giving patients firmer and fresher looking skin.

What does a thread lift treat?

Thread lifts are ideal for those looking to counter the effects of ageing via a non-surgical facelift. It is particularly effective in clients in their 40s and 50s.

“Thread lifts cannot only give you a general facelift but also work to better define and sculpt individual facial features such as the eyebrows or lips. 

“It is a non-surgical way to make you look younger, while giving your skin a healthy dose of new collagen.”
