How do threads smooth and tighten the face?

Are you looking for a simple way to take years off your face? The fast-growing ThreadLift may be the answer for you. AThreadLift is a non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedure. But just how do threads smooth and tighten the face.

What is a ThreadLift?
A ThreadLift is a procedure that uses special threads to smooth wrinkles and tighten sagging skin. These lifting threads can be used in several parts of the face including the eye area, cheeks, jawline, jowls, and neck.

There are several types of threads or sutures that are used to perform a ThreadLift, including the PDO absorbable sutures. These are safe, dissolvable sutures that are composed of polydioxanone.

How threads smooth and tighten the face
The threads are inserted into the face just under the skin, using a tiny needle. They are then pulled tight in order to elevate the skin and underlying muscle, and this makes the skin tighter and smoother.

The threads are absorbed by the skin over the following 4-6 months, and this triggers the skin’s repair process and stimulates collagen production. The results typically last for about 12 months, but this depends on the type of threads used.

Are you a good candidate?
Men and women with mild to moderate sagging of the skin are the best candidates for a ThreadLift. Younger individuals get better results since their skin has a greater capacity to produce new collagen.
