Thread Lifts are non-surgical lifting procedure to reposition droopy fat and sagging skin to improve deep nasolabial folds, heavy jowls, sagging cheeks and droopy eyebrows.  Fine threads are used for bio-stimulation to thicken the skin for a youthful transformation. 

 

It is done by inserting absorbable threads via a few needle-sized entry points with blunt ended cannula into the deeper layer of skin. The threads, made of Polydioxanone (PDO), Poly L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) or Polycarprolactone (PCL) are biodegradable and stimulates the skin to increase fibroblast cells and create new collagen, creating a long-lasting lift and a youthful appearance.
