Thread Lift

Thread Lift Procedure In Mumbai

What is Thread Lift ?

Threadlift is a non-surgical office procedure with immediate visible improvement of saggy and wrinkled skin of one's face. In this procedure, absorbable threads with barbs attached to them are used to lift the sagging skin of your face and even body.

The threads used are usually of a dissolvable material that dissolve over time. They are replaced with collagen -- the building blocks of the skin that become lesser with age. Good quality collagen being laid down over time offers better results. It is a fairly common process in younger patients, because there is not too much sagging or deep wrinkling of the skin.

Who is the ideal candidate for thread lifts?

In case you do not want to go under the knife and have mild to moderate sagging of the skin over the face, or want some definition of the jawline, you should consider thread lifts after consulting your dermatologist. Double chins and jowls can also be improved with threads.

Types of Threads used in the Surgery

There are two types of threads: short-lasting and long-lasting. The cones can also be barbed or have barbs. In terms of thread application technique, it depends on the type of threads, the doctor's training, and the patient's individual circumstances. Threadlifts are most commonly used on eyebrows, cheeks, jowls and the neck area. They can also be used to give youthful tone to areas on the body such as the breasts, buttocks and upper arms.
