Life-Changing Results

Thread Lift

As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen and elastin, causing it to sag over time. If you want to address moderate signs of aging without the discomfort and downtime of extensive surgery, a thread lift is a quick, convenient procedure that can tighten your skin and refresh your appearance. Commonly performed on the face and neck, a thread lift can also be used to provide a subtle but visible lift to various areas of the body.

What is a Thread Lift?

A thread lift is a minimally-invasive rejuvenation procedure that uses skilled technique and special threads to elevate sagging skin. It can be used to lift sagging brows, cheeks, jowls, and more for a youthful appearance. 

The original thread lift has been around since the late ‘90s and was commonly performed until the mid-2000s. However, the sutures that surgeons used in the past had a history of not providing enough hold and came with some complications.

Today, updated technology has brought back a newer, safer version of the thread lift, which uses dissolvable sutures with soft cones. These new sutures are customizable and ensure the lifting necessary to hold your skin in the desired youthful position. 

To help make your thread lift treatment more affordable, we can provide you with various financing options. If you are interested in financing, our team will connect you with our financial partners and simplify the application process.

During your in-office thread lift procedure at Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery, our board-certified team will use a local numbing agent to ensure the procedure is completely comfortable. Your surgeon will then make a needle entry point into the skin to insert the thin threads. Next, they will lift and tighten the deeper layers of the skin in the targeted area.

Your surgeon can place customizable threads virtually anywhere on your face and body. However, they mostly use threads as a non-surgical alternative to a facelift or neck lift.

Your body’s natural collagen is stimulated by the procedure to fill in wrinkles and folds once your body absorbs the threads. 

Generally, the thread lift procedure takes about 45 minutes to complete. With this single lunch break procedure, you can walk out looking years younger with little to no downtime.

After your thread lift treatment, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, and soreness. These symptoms should resolve in about five days. Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and resuming their normal routine immediately following the procedure.

During the first week after the procedure, you should avoid rubbing the treated area. If you have a thread lift performed on your face or neck, be gentle when washing your face and applying skincare products. We also often recommend that you avoid sleeping on your stomach or side for a few weeks, as that can put pressure on your face. Over the next four to six weeks, you will begin to notice a more lifted appearance.

The results of your thread lift will vary depending on the types of threads your surgeon uses and your specific concerns being addressed. After your thread lift procedure at Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery, you will notice immediate results, such as a natural-looking lift and a younger appearance. Your thread lift results will continue to become apparent over the next four to six weeks following your procedure and fully develop over eight to nine months.

It is important you follow your provider’s post-thread lift instructions and recovery tips to ensure proper healing and the best results. Your thread lift can last up to two years, but results will vary from patient to patient. If you wish to maintain your results over a longer period of time, you can have additional thread lift procedures or injectable treatments. 

Healthy men or women who show mild to moderate signs of aging caused by skin laxity and volume loss may be ideal candidates for thread lift procedures. The best candidates are usually in their late 30s to early 50s, as patients over 55 may benefit more from facelift or neck lift surgery. 

Ideal thread lift candidates want to improve their appearance without having a surgical procedure. Good candidates also have realistic expectations about the procedure and its outcome. The best way to determine if a thread lift is right for you is to consult with one of our board-certified surgeons.

Your thread lift procedure will be tailored to your specific needs, so the cost will vary. The national average cost of a thread lift is $2,050 and is influenced by factors such as your geographic location, your provider’s experience, and the area being treated. This price also does not include any facility fees or anesthesia fees.

This is only a rough estimate, and your actual price will depend on your treatment plan and the technique used. For a more accurate quote, we encourage you to schedule a consultation at Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery.
