Thread Lift: A Minimally Invasive Alternative to Facelift Surgery

A thread lift is a less invasive alternative to traditional facelift surgery. This procedure uses medical-grade threads inserted into the skin, which are then gently tightened to lift and firm sagging areas, creating a youthful appearance.

Cost Of Thread Lift Surgery

The cost of a thread lift varies depending on factors such as location, the practitioner’s expertise, and the areas being treated. On average, a thread lift costs about 40% less than a traditional facelift.

  • Areas Treated:
    Common areas for thread lifts include the forehead, jowls, under-eye region, and eyebrows. You can target a single area or multiple areas, with the latter increasing the overall cost.

    • Eyebrows and Crow’s Feet: 5-6 threads
    • Chin and Jawline: 10-15 threads
    • Full Face (for older adults): 40+ threads
  • Cost Per Thread: Approximately ₹1,500 per thread, with the total cost depending on the number of threads required.

A thread lift for areas like the breasts may cost more. Since general anesthesia is not required, costs are reduced, and recovery is quick — often within 24-48 hours, allowing you to return to your daily routine immediately.

To enhance results, additional treatments such as Botox or dermal fillers (e.g., Juvederm) may be recommended by your surgeon.

How Does Thread Lift Surgery Work

Thread lift treatments work in two key ways:

  1. Physical Lifting:
    • Dissolvable sutures with tiny, painless barbs are inserted under the skin. These barbs anchor the thread to the skin, lifting tissues and creating a firmer appearance.
  2. Collagen Stimulation:
    • The threads trigger your body’s natural repair response, stimulating collagen production in the treated area. This helps reduce wrinkles and improve skin elasticity over time.

Results:

  • Immediate lifting effects that gradually improve as collagen rebuilds.
  • Sutures dissolve after a year, but the collagen boost can last up to three years.

Full Procedure Of Thread Lifts

  1. Preparation:
    • The surgeon marks the treatment area to determine the direction of the lift.
    • Local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort.
  2. Thread Insertion:
    • Barbed threads are inserted into the skin through tiny incisions using a hollow needle.
    • The threads are carefully positioned along the marked contours to lift sagging areas.
  3. Securing the Threads:
    • Once in place, the threads are tightened to achieve the desired lift.
    • The excess thread is trimmed, and the sutures are buried beneath the skin, leaving no visible scars.

Material Used:

  • The threads are made from polypropylene, a durable and biocompatible material. While the threads dissolve over time, collagen fibers maintain the lift for years.

Immediate Results:

  • Sagging is visibly reduced, and a natural, rejuvenated look is achieved.

Benefits of Thread Lift Treatment

  • Minimally invasive with no general anesthesia required.
  • Immediate lifting and long-term collagen stimulation.
  • Short recovery period (24-48 hours).
  • Cost-effective alternative to surgical facelifts.
  • Treats multiple areas, including the face, jawline, and neck.
  • Results look natural and subtle.

Thread lift treatments offer a safe, effective, and minimally invasive way to rejuvenate your appearance. By tightening and lifting sagging skin while promoting collagen production, thread lifts provide natural-looking results with minimal downtime.
