Thread lifting works by inserting biocompatible, absorbable threads into targeted areas beneath the skin. These threads provide an immediate lifting effect while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen response.
Over time, as the threads dissolve, newly formed collagen continues to support the skin, gradually firming and improving texture.
Thread lifting is most frequently performed on the face, including the cheeks, jawline, chin, brows, and neck, where it enhances lift and definition while maintaining natural facial movement. It is ideal for patients seeking subtle contour improvement rather than dramatic volume changes.
