Thread lift treatments involve the use of thin, dissolvable threads that are inserted under the skin to lift and tighten the facial tissues. These threads contain small cones or barbs that grip onto the skin and underlying tissues, creating a gentle pulling effect that lifts the sagging areas of the face.

The threads are generally made of polydioxanone (PDO), a material that is commonly used in medical sutures. PDO is biocompatible and biodegradable, meaning that it is safe for the body and gradually breaks down over time.

The thread lift treatment is minimally invasive and typically takes less than an hour to complete. Patients can usually resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure. The results of the thread lift treatment can last for up to 18 months, depending on the individual’s skin condition and aging process.
