No – before the thread lift procedure begins, your Dr Leah clinician will inject a local anaesthetic to numb the treatment area and prevent pain.
The lifting effect from the thread lift will be visible immediately. Additionally, the rejuvenating effect of your thread lift will gradually become visible over 3 months.
MINT threads: Known for providing a more dramatic initial lift, but may stimulate a different type of collagen to Silhouette Soft thread lift.
Silhouette Soft threads: Offer a subtler lift initially, however, they may promote the production of a more durable and long lasting type of collagen vs PDO threads.
Additionally, MINT threads are generally considered a better option for lifting the neck area compared to Silhouette Soft threads.
Some patients notice some bruising and swelling immediately after their Silhouette Soft® procedure. Other common side effects visible for the first 5 days are puckering of the skin and dimples. We generally advise 5 days of work following a threadlift procedure.
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.
Up to 18 months, at which point the treatment can be repeated.
Yes, there is no limit to how many times your face thread lift treatment can be repeated.
Yes, the majority of thread lift patients combine the treatment with other treatments such as Ultherapy to tighten the skin prior to lifting, or small amounts of dermal filler after thread lift to enhance the result. These treatments are offered at a discounted rate at your follow up appointment after thread lift treatment.
Thread lift treatments are performed at either our Baker Street clinic or our Loughton clinic.
The Silhouette Soft® thread facelift (also known as a one stitch facelift) uses bi-directional absorbable threads.
Threads are dissolvable stitches that promote collagen and elastin production. A thread has etched or coned structures that enable it to hook into and lift the tissue beneath the skin. The material from which the thread is made then stimulates collagen production in the skin.
A Thread Lift operates in two ways:
- Firstly, it mechanically lifts the skin, instantly providing a lifted appearance to the face, acting as a non-surgical facelift.
- Secondly, over the following months, the threads stimulate the body's collagen production, resulting in a smooth, naturally lifted appearance.
