Home » Thread Lift FAQ »

Is Threadlift safe?
Threadlift is considered the safest lifting procedure available today.

How does it work?
Tissues are repositioned by thread’s traction (see our What is Threadlift? page for more info).

Who are the best candidates?
Patients with sagging face and/or neck skin or a flaccid face make the best candidates.

Who is not a candidate for the procedure?
Since Thread Lift does not remove excess skin, patients with skin that is too heavy or too thin may not see the results they hope for.

Is the procedure painful?
No. Thread Lift is done under local anesthesia.

How long is the recovery time?
24 hours

What are the side effects?
Small bruises, but no scars.

How much does it cost?
An average Threadlift procedure costs $2,000-$4,000.

How long do the results last?
Around three years. Your results can be enhanced with Botox and/or Restylane injections.

How Thread Lift differs from plastic surgery? Plastic surgery is more expensive, more risky, but effects of plastic surgery last for 10 to 15 years according to plastic surgeons. Also surgery can remove unnecessary skin.

Can threads become visible? Yes, if skin becomes too thin because of aging. In this case thread will be removed at no cost for you.
