How Thread Lifts Tighten and Contour Skin
PDO thread lifts use dissolvable polydioxanone threads placed in the subcutaneous layer of the skin to mechanically lift and tighten sagging areas, while Silhouette InstaLift uses absorbable micro-cones to add volume and lift to the midface.
Step 1: A consultation determines whether PDO threads or InstaLift best suits your goals.
Step 2: Tiny needles place the threads or micro-cones beneath the skin's surface.
Step 3: The treatment takes 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the technique used.
Step 4: Collagen production continues for months after the threads are absorbed, extending your results.
Who Benefits Most From Thread Lifts
Ideal for patients who are:
- Experiencing mild to moderate sagging of the face or neck
- Wanting subtle lifting and tightening without surgery or significant downtime
- Bothered by sagging cheeks or deep nasolabial folds in the midface

- Not yet ready for a surgical facelift but wanting noticeable improvement

Caring for Your Skin After a Thread Lift

Apply ice gently to ease any mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness.
Avoid facial massages for the first one to two weeks to protect thread placement.
Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive facial movement for the first few days.
