FAQs

How long does it take to look normal after thread lift? ›

You'll see instant results from the physical lift, but there is more to come since collagen takes 2-3 months to generate fully. You can expect a complete recovery from your thread lift in no more than two weeks.

Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian is renowned for being transparent about her use of cosmetic surgery. According to reports, she has looked into a number of non-surgical procedures, including as thread lifts, to keep her face elevated and sculpted.

PCA lifts are the newest and the longest-lasting treatment. They dissolve after 12-15 months, during which they stimulate more collagen and elastin than PDO and PLA threads. PCA lifts provide more lift and support, while PDO threads are better at repositioning and revitalizing tissue.

For most patients, this treatment results in an immediate improvement because the placement of the threads offers a lift right away. Your results will fully develop, or settle, over the next month as the body begins to ramp up collagen production that will offer longer-term support.

These results will appear over time, so once you leave your appointment, you can rest in the fact that your results will just keep getting better over time. Within six to eight months, you'll experience your final results. Results do vary among patients, but most people enjoy results that last for 18 months or longer.

Most people who receive thread lifts are between the ages of 30 and 60. This particular procedure is especially ideal for those who can't receive a facelift because they're unable to have general anesthesia administered due to health concerns or adverse reactions with medication.

In suitable candidates, a thread facelift can create a lifting effect. But in patients who have more extreme sagging and excess skin, a thread facelift may not be the best option. Unlike a facelift, it does not trim away loose skin or reposition the underlying fat, tissue, and muscle. They aren't a permanent fix.

A thread lift is a relatively quick procedure with little downtime and risk. However, results are subtle and temporary.

Once the threads are in place they visibly and immediately lift the skin, but only by a few millimeters, which ensures subtle, natural results. The threads also spur the body to produce additional collagen, which develops over time and gradually plumps the skin.

What is better than PDO thread lift? ›

NovaThreads were the first FDA-approved absorbable PDO sutures. The procedure uses the same technique as PDO thread lifts to create a refreshed, youthful look, but the effects are often longer lasting. Depending on your desired results, your dermatologist or cosmetic specialist may use barbed or smooth PDO threads.

PDO threads are better at repositing and revitalizing tissue while PLA and PCA threads are better at lifting sagging parts of your skin.

Results from a thread lift aren't meant to be permanent. Successful effects typically last from 1 to 3 years. Like other dissolvable dermal fillers, such as Botox, the threads used in the procedure will eventually be absorbed by the tissue underneath your skin. After a thread lift, you can resume your normal routine.

As the threads induce collagen production in the treated area, you'll notice more structure, plumping, and hydration within three months after the procedure, with results peaking around six months. Patients can enjoy their PDO Thread Lift results for up to two years.

A PDO thread lift is an outpatient procedure, with a recovery time of two days to a week. In addition to your practitioner's instructions, there are general guidelines to follow to make the process go smoothly and ensure the best results. Avoid wearing makeup for the first 12 hours after the procedure.

A process of protein synthesis begins after about 10-14 days. Over the subsequent weeks, results will continue to improve, peaking at around nine months and lasting for up to 2 years as your own body produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

While each patient's response to treatment will vary, patients can generally expect mild residual swelling to last from a few hours to a few days after PDO thread lifting. In some cases, swelling may last for up to a week, though it is typically very mild.

Lumps and/or bumps may temporarily occur at/or along treatment sit(s). These will resolve with time and are seldom a cause of concern 3. Asymmetry and irregularity of the tissues treated is common post treatment and usually resolves itself.
