THREAD LIFTS
Frequently Asked Questions
Depending on the individual, results can vary for how long a thread lift might last. Some factors that can influence the results of your thread lift procedure can include individual skin characteristics, the specific technique used, and the number of threads used.
The threads themselves are often made of materials that gradually dissolve. On average, the results from a thread lift procedure can last anywhere from 1-3 years.
It’s important to note that thread lifts offer a more temporary solution compared to surgical facelifts. Maintenance sessions may be recommended to prolong and optimize the results.
A PDO thread lift is a specific type of non-surgical cosmetic procedure that utilizes threads made of Polydioxanone (PDO) to lift and tighten sagging skin on the face. This material is biocompatible and absorbable, gradually dissolving over time.
A “regular” thread lift may involve different materials, such as polylactic acid or polyglycolic acid, with similar mechanisms of lifting and collagen stimulation. The choice between the two may depend on individual preferences, the specific materials used, and the advice of a qualified cosmetic professional.
The choice between a thread lift and fillers mostly depends on an individual’s preferences and the specific aesthetic concerns one wishes to address. As a non-surgical procedure that involves inserting dissolvable threads beneath the skin to lift and reposition sagging tissue, results are subtle and often accompanied by stimulated collagen production. However, these results are temporary as the threads gradually dissolve over time.
As for fillers, these procedures typically consist of substances like hyaluronic acid being injected beneath the skin to add volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours. Fillers offer immediate results and can be used to address various areas, including the lips, cheeks, and eyes. The effects of fillers are temporary, usually lasting several months to a year, depending on the specific product used.

A thread lift is designed to address sagging or loose skin on the face and even to certain areas of the body. Commonly treated facial areas include the midface, where thread lifts can enhance nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Additionally, the procedure is effective in targeting sagging skin along the jawline, providing a lift to the jowls and contributing to a more youthful appearance. Thread lifts can also be applied to the neck, addressing loose skin and wrinkles. Depending on your personal areas of concern, certain procedures can be adapted to suit your needs.
