Medically supervised thread lift treatments designed to gently lift and support facial contours without surgery.
WHAT RESULTS CAN YOU EXPECT?
A thread lift is designed to provide gentle lifting and support to areas of the face that have begun to lose firmness over time. Rather than dramatically changing facial features, the treatment helps reposition and support the skin to create a more refreshed, naturally lifted appearance.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Step 1: Consultation & Assessment
You’ll begin with a consultation to evaluate your facial structure, skin quality, and goals, and to confirm whether a thread lift is appropriate for you.
Step 2: Thread Lift Procedure
The procedure is performed in a clinical setting, with threads placed strategically to support and lift targeted areas of the face. Comfort and safety are monitored throughout.
Step 3: Aftercare & Follow-Up
After treatment, you’ll receive guidance on aftercare and healing, along with recommendations on what to expect as results continue to settle.
Schedule a consultation to review your facial concerns, discuss expected results, and determine whether a Thread Lift is an appropriate option for your goals.

Good to Know
A Thread Lift is a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedure that uses dissolvable medical threads placed beneath the skin to lift and support sagging areas. Over time, the threads also stimulate collagen production, helping improve skin firmness and structure.
Thread Lift procedures are commonly used to lift and tighten areas such as the cheeks, jawline, lower face, neck, and brows. During your consultation, your provider will assess which areas are appropriate based on your facial anatomy and goals.
Results vary by individual, but most patients experience visible improvement that can last 12 to 18 months. Longevity depends on factors such as skin quality, age, lifestyle, and the type of threads used.
This is not permanent, but it offers longer-lasting support than many non-surgical options.
Most patients report mild to moderate discomfort rather than pain. The procedure is performed using local anesthesia to help keep you comfortable. Some soreness, tightness, or swelling is common afterward and typically resolves within a few days.
Downtime is generally minimal. Many patients return to normal daily activities within 24 to 48 hours, though mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness can occur. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions to support proper healing.
Thread Lifts are best suited for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity who want visible lifting without surgery. It may not be appropriate for advanced sagging or significant excess skin, which will be evaluated during your consultation.
Your consultation focuses on evaluating your facial structure, skin laxity, and aesthetic goals. A licensed provider will explain whether a Thread Lift is appropriate for you, outline expected results, review aftercare, and answer any questions before recommending next steps.
If treatment is appropriate, scheduling options will be discussed based on your needs and availability.
