What is a thread lift?

A thread lift is a type of procedure wherein temporary sutures are used to produce a subtle but visible "lift" in the skin. Instead of removing loose facial skin with surgery, threads will suspend it by 'stitching up' small sections. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face.

In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads also combat aging by prompting the body's "healing response" and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas. This is important because of the vital role collagen plays in the aging process.
