How do facial thread lifts work?
Facial thread lifting procedures are relatively simple non-surgical procedures that can be performed by a medical doctor. The procedure can take as little as 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your needs. A consultation with the doctor performing the procedure is necessary to determine the best approach to cater to your needs. After a local anaesthetic, threads are inserted under the skin to lift and tighten. Over time, the threads may stimulate collagen production to provide longer-lasting results.
Are facial thread lifts painful?
Using a local anaesthetic, the procedure is practically painless. Following the procedure, slight swelling may arise, and this is usually resolved within a few days but may take up to 2 weeks.
