How the Dr. L Lift Works

  • Radiofrequency Microneedling
    The combination treatment starts with Morpheus8, an energy-based device that remodels the skin by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, the essential building blocks of youthful skin. This improves skin quality, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and unveils a firmer, more youthful complexion. You will have three treatments, each 3-4 weeks apart.
  • Thread Lift
    Collagen-stimulating threads are dissolvable stitches that are strategically placed beneath the skin's surface by expert doctors. They work by repositioning facial tissues to mechanically lift the face upwards and backwards in an L-shaped direction (hence the name!) while simultaneously producing collagen and elastin.
     

What Dr. Leah Totton Says

"My specialist interest within aesthetic medicine is in treating face and neck sagging. I am an international trainer for thread lifting treatments and see hundreds of women each year who present with face and neck sagging often associated with menopause. We know that women lose 30% of the collagen in their skin in the five years around menopause, and this plays a key role in the formation of a 'pulled down' or 'sad' look of the face, resulting from sagging cheeks, downturned mouth corners, the formation of jowls, and a loss of jawline definition.

My goal when developing the Dr. L Lift treatment was to reposition the facial tissues to their position in the more youthful face and replenish the collagen and elastin in the skin, essentially restoring the face to how it may have looked several years before. This approach allows us to achieve immediate and long-lasting, natural-looking results.

The Dr. L Lift works in two ways: by stimulating natural collagen and elastin in the skin and by lifting the face using threads to reposition areas that have 'sagged' to where they would have been several years ago. This approach ensures that you look refreshed and rejuvenated, rather than looking like you have had 'work done'."
 

The Happy Face Lift reviews

Here’s what our clients have to say…
It wasn’t a one-size-fits-all approach with Dr Leah – she looked at every angle – really studied my face. I didn’t want to be pumped up full of fillers which worried me when you look at some celebrities. I wanted to look like my naturally best self, and still have facial movement. Dr Leah - gets it. She is all about a subtle, natural loo...

Catherine, 65
I was instantly less jowly and my jawline more visible than it had been in years. Even my husband, Dillon, who is not known for his observational skills, said I looked ‘fresh-faced’…. My niece insisted I looked like ‘a twentysomething’ — all right that was in just one, blurry photograph she’d taken — and my sister said I looked ‘ten years youn...

WHAT AGE IS BEST FOR A DR L LIFT

The optimal age for a Dr L lift is from an age range of 45-65 years or after premature menopause, however Dr Leah Clinic have also treated patients with loose skin due to premature aging in their 30s. We access each case on an individual basis as our patient attend clinic.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH A DR L LIFT


* Lift cheeks and reduce sagging

* Lift middle and lower face to reduce folds/pouches of sagging tissue beside mouth

* An excellent jowls treatment – improving jawline definition acting as a lower non-surgical facelift

* An effective neck lift/ Neck thread lift to improve a saggy neck area under chin and jaw

* Eyebrow/ brow lift

HOW DOES THE DR L LIFT WORK?

The combination-treatment starts with Morpheus8, an energy-based device that remodels the skin by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, the essential building blocks of youthful skin. This improves skin quality, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, unveiling a firmer, more youthful complexion. You will have three treatments each 3-4 weeks apart.

Following your Morphues8 treatments, collagen stimulating threads are dissolvable stitches which are strategically placed beneath the skin's surface by expert doctors, they work by re-positioning facial tissues to mechanically lifting the face upwards and backwards in an L-shaped direction (hence the name!) while simultaneously producing collagen and elastin.

WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS AFTER TREATMENT

Morpheus8 downtime and aftercare:
Morpheus8 treatment can cause redness, sensitivity, and minor swelling in the treated area for 1 to 3 days. However, most patients can return to normal activities, such as work or social events, within 2 to 3 days as the side effects subside and the redness fades. Makeup should be avoided for the first 48 hours, but normal skincare and makeup application can typically resume within 3 to 5 days. It is recommended to keep the treated area clean and hydrated, avoid harsh skincare products and sun exposure

Thread Lift downtime and aftercare:
At your consultation with Dr Leah Clinic your doctor will discuss in depth the aftercare which you will have to follow after your procedure. Any movement in the treated areas will decrease the overall results of the thread lifting and so it is important to avoid exercise for 7-14 days aside from gentle walks. You will also need to sleep on your back for 5 nights. You are likely to have obvious marks on the face for around 5 days after the treatment so we advise you may want to avoid social activities during this period.

IS THE DR L LIFT PAINFUL

Before the thread lift procedure begins, your doctor will inject a local anaesthetic to numb the treatment area and prevent any pain.

With the Morpheus8 - while pain tolerance varies from person to person, topical anesthesia is also used during Morpheus8 treatment to numb the treated area and minimize discomfort. The treatment is generally considered more sensitive than other body remodeling and skin-tightening treatments, but it is still tolerable for the majority of patients. As a result, Morpheus8 has become one of the clinic's most popular treatments.
