A thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to tighten and lift sagging skin on the face and neck. It is also known as a non-surgical facelift or a suture lift. A thread lift is an alternative to traditional facelifts, which involve cutting incisions and removing extra skin. Instead, dissolvable threads are inserted beneath the skin with the help of a specialized needle. The skin is then lifted and tightened by gently pulling on these threads.
The thread lift treatment in Chandigarh provided by Dr. Ishaa Junejaa, a leading skin expert can help people achieve refined skin looks and a contoured face. The threads used in a thread lift are made of biodegradable substances like polylactic acid or polydioxanone, which encourage the skin's own collagen production, further tightening and lifting the skin. The body replaces the threads as they fall out over time with natural collagen, producing long-lasting results.
The following Skin Conditions are Treated with a Thread Lift:
- Sagging skin
- Loss of volume
- Drooping cheeks
- Mouth folds or puppet wrinkles
- Interfering wrinkles
- Hanging eyebrows
- Mild to moderating aging of the skin
- Nasolabial folds or furrows
Difference Between Thread Lift and Other Facelifts
Thread lifts are less invasive and involve less recovery time than traditional facelifts. Patients can typically resume their regular activities within a few days of the procedure, which can be carried out under the observation of a doctor under local anesthesia. Additionally, thread lifts are typically less expensive than conventional facelifts.
It is important to keep in mind, though, that in cases of more severe skin sagging or significant facial volume loss, thread lifts might not be as effective as conventional facelifts. A thread lift produces less dramatic results than a traditional facelift, and patients may need several procedures to get the results they want.
Overall, a thread lift is a less invasive and more affordable alternative to traditional facelifts, but it may not be suitable for all patients. It is important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist to determine if a thread lift is the best treatment option for your individual needs and goals.
