A Threadlift procedure is ideal for someone with early signs of aging seen in mild to moderate laugh lines or facial joweling. This procedure does not replace a facelift, which lifts underlying facial muscles and tissue.   For someone with severe laxity of facial skin and neck, a facelift would be a better option. A brief 15-minute consultation with our Aesthetic Injection Specialist will determine if a Threadlift will achieve your goals.

Threadlift is noninvasive, low risk procedure, approved by the FDA. There is little chance of scarring, severe bruising or bleeding following the procedure. Recovery is relatively easy as only a local anesthetic is used. Patients should be able to drive home after the procedure.

Before the procedure begins, our Aesthetic Injection Specialist will assess and mark your face to identify where the sutures will be placed. The area is numbed with a local anesthetic. Using a thin needle, dissolvable sutures are inserted into the skin and gently pulled in the direction the lift should occur. Each suture is interspersed with tiny “cones” that will subtly gather and lift the facial skin. The sutures are small, absorbable and cannot be felt once the skin has healed around them. The number of sutures used varies, depending on the skin laxity. The procedure lasts about 60 minutes.
