About the treatment

What is Thread Lift?

Fine dissolvable threads (PDO) are placed under the skin with a thin needle or cannula. They give an immediate lift and, as they dissolve over months, prompt new collagen.

Threads suit mild to moderate sagging and are often combined with fillers or HIFU for a fuller result.

FAQ

Thread Lift: your questions

How long does a thread lift last?

Usually around a year, depending on the threads used and your skin.

Will people see the threads?

No. They sit under the skin; you may feel a slight tightness for a few days.

Results vary from person to person. Suitability, number of sessions and fees are confirmed after a consultation.
