What Is a Thread Lift?

 While it is commonly noted that beauty is on the inside, we must admit that having our outer beauty reflect our inner beauty is often essential to our self esteem. Having confidence and pride in ourselves makes our lives much happier and more fulfilling.

Even a woman that has everything: a successful career, a wonderful love life, and a lovely family can be de-motivated by the thought of herself getting older. As women get older we often get a deeper sense of self and become more confident in who we are on the inside, but we may also have lingering nostalgia for the  bodies and the faces we had in our youth.

It's no wonder that so many women turn to surgery and chemicals in search of the perfect look, but those methods are expensive and dangerous. Thread lift is a new method of cosmetic surgery that can enhance your appearance without a face lift. It is a fraction of the cost and requires much less downtime than your average face lift. Usually a thread lift can be performed in an hour.

So in that hour of your time, Thread Lifts Treatment will be inserted under your facial tissues to lift sagging eyebrows, eyelids, deep folds, or aging neck tissues. There are barbs on one end of the thread that grab the sagging skin, and teeth on the other side attach the skin to the surrounding facial tissues. This whole operation is done with a thin needle, and no incisions or stitches are required. Subsequently, there is no scarring as with a traditional face lift.

The two types of thread lifts currently being performed in the United States are the Contour Threadlift and the Featherlift. There are a few differences in the two procedures. The Countour thread material is made out of clear polypropylene and has barbs along that thread that open like an umbrella. The Featherlift method was developed overseas and has barbs that are inserted along through the entire length of the thread.

Recovery is quick and the pain is minimal, requiring only over the counter medication. Most people can resume normal, non-strenuous activity within 24 hours and resume all activities within a week.
