A thread lift, sometimes referred to as a "lunchtime lift," uses absorbable, barbed sutures to offer a tighter, more youthful aesthetic appearance to the face and neck.

This minimally invasive procedure works by stimulating the production of collagen in the skin in order to produce healthier, firmer skin. It can also mechanically lift tissues where the barbed sutures are placed.

What a thread lift can treat:

• Early loosening and sagging of the facial structures

• Jowls

• Sagging eyebrows

• Premature loosening of the neck skin

The advantages of thread lifts are:

• Shorter down time

• Less expensive than plastic surgery

• Very safe

• Effects are long lasting, lasting a whole year

• Results are seen in a month, and keep improving over 3 months
