Everything You Need To Know About Threadlifts

A traditional face lift is an invasive surgery that costs thousands, and can take a good few weeks to recover from.

But what if we told you there were a way to get similar results for a fraction of the cost and minimal down time?

Rumoured to count celebrities like Kim Kardashian, J. Lo and Gwyneth Paltrow as fans, the 'thread lift' is one of the most effective forms of non-surgical face lifts you can get.

We spoke to Dr. Josh Wall, medical director of Contour Clinics to tell us everything we need to know about the thread lift.

What is a thread lift?

The name of the procedure makes it sound almost medieval, but the technology behind it is advanced.

Dr Josh describes a threadlift as: "A form of non-surgical face lift that uses suture-like material to raise sagging facial features. This procedure causes an intensive collagen stimulating process around the threads, which causes a lifting and tightening effect to the area treated. The suture material itself will dissolve over the next 3-6 months."

Is the procedure painful?

A huge downside of the traditional face lift is the high level of pain associated with it. As for the thread lift, Dr Josh says, "most people tolerate the procedure well, with mild discomfort, rather than pain."

How long do the results of a thread lift last?

All good things must come to an end, and unfortunately thread lift results aren't permanent. Dr Josh says you can expect results to last "12-18 months, depending on the threads used."

Who is the ideal candidate for a thread lift?

Dr. Josh says you could look into a thread lift if you have "mild sagging of facial features including: mild-moderate nasolabial folds, mild jowling, and mild brow heaviness."

How long does the procedure take?

Because the procedure is non-invasive, it is quite quick. Dr Josh says that "in my hands, the procedure takes 10-20 minutes depending on the number of threads."

Is there any downtime?

The downtime for this procedure is very minimal, and Dr Josh says recovery time will vary. "Some people leave the clinic with no evidence of any procedure being done. Others, have mild to moderate facial swelling that resolves in 1-2 days."

How much does a thread lift cost?

"Depending on the number of threads and the area treated, prices vary from $1400 for a brow lift, and $4200 for a full non-surgical face-lift."

My names are Ashley Vivian, Am here to share a testimony on how Dr Raypower helped me. After a 1/5 year relationship with my boyfriend, he changed suddenly and stopped contacting me regularly, he would come up with excuses of not seeing me all the time. He stopped answering my calls and my sms and he stopped seeing me regularly. I then started catching him with different girls several times but every time he would say that he loved me and that he needed some time to think about our relationship. But I couldn't stop thinking about him so I decided to go online and I saw so many good talks about this spell caster called Dr Raypower and I contacted him and explained my problems to him. He cast a love spell for me which i use and after 24 hours, my boyfriend came back to me and started contacting me regularly and we moved in together after a few months and he was more open to me than before and he started spending more time with me than his friends. We eventually got married and we now have been married happily for 3 years with a son. Ever since Dr Raypower helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before. You can also contact this spell caster and get your relationship fix Email: urgentspellcast@gmail.com or urgentspellcast@yahoo.com see more reviews about him on his website: https://urgentspellcast.wordpress.com/ WhatsApp: +1 (424) 330-8109

The results look promising but I don't think I would go for it, I am scared of the long term effects of these procedures so refrain from these.

It sounds like they are stitching your face up, I'm not sure if I want to try this.

I love the results of the Threadlift, looks great. A procedure I would have to save for.

I learned a lot from this article! !! At the same time, I heard that the radio frequency has a good effect on lifting and wrinkling the skin. I wonder if this is really the case? I see a lot of knowledge about radio frenquency in this blog, and share it with everyone.

Meedee 25 Nov 2019 12:40 PM

WOW......Thats how much I would spend on a car and I would be hoping that the car would last longer then 18mths. Too expensive for me im afraid.

Paul481 25 Nov 2019 9:01 AM

Claire88 24 Nov 2019 11:25 PM

It’s not for me, but the results look impressive.

onlyoni 24 Nov 2019 9:34 PM

Nah, I wouldn't have it done even though it looks impressive.

AndreaD 24 Nov 2019 8:19 PM

The side by side photo is really quite impressive. But for over $4K for 12-18 months, the upkeep of this really, really expensive.
