Upper Face Lift
A thread lift is a procedure that uses FDA approved threads made of barbed polydioxanone (PDO) placed under the skin in a strategic fashion to lift and suspend tissue that is sagging. The threads will dissolve and leave a thin strand of collagen in its place which produces a smoother and more lifted appearance. This specific treatment targets the cheeks and smile lines (nasolabial folds). It will provide some lift to sagging skin in that area and is a good choice to do before adding cheek or nasolabial filler.
Here are some frequently asked questions about our upper face thread lift:
How Does the Process Work?
The upper face thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that utilizes dissolvable threads strategically placed beneath the skin. These threads, made from biocompatible materials, stimulate collagen production, promoting natural skin tightening over time. Our skilled practitioners at Enlightened Medical delicately insert these threads to lift sagging skin in targeted areas, resulting in a naturally elevated and contoured facial profile.
What Are the Benefits?
This procedure is particularly effective in addressing sagging brows, jowls, and nasolabial folds. The collagen stimulation also enhances skin texture, giving you a smoother and more youthful complexion. With minimal downtime and long-lasting results, our thread lift is the ideal solution for those seeking a non-surgical facelift.
What Is the Procedure Like?
The procedure at Enlightened Medical is a personalized experience tailored to your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. During the treatment, you may feel minimal discomfort as the threads are inserted, but our practitioners prioritize your comfort, utilizing local anesthesia to ensure a painless experience. The entire procedure typically takes around 60-90 minutes, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly afterward.
What Can I Expect After the Procedure?
Post-procedure, you may experience some mild swelling or bruising, but these effects are temporary and generally subside within a few days. Results are noticeable immediately, with continuous improvement over the following weeks as collagen production is stimulated. Enjoy the confidence of a revitalized appearance without the extended recovery period associated with traditional surgical facelifts.
