Pain Points & Agitation

"Why does my face look like it's sliding down?"

The jawline looks less defined, cheeks feel heavier, and the face looks older even when the weight hasn't changed. "I didn't gain weight... so why does my face look heavier?"

"Where did my jawline go?"

Side profile looks softer and less sculpted. Photos from the side become frustrating. "My side profile used to be my favourite..."

"These little things beside my mouth weren't there before."

Jowls can make the lower face look heavier and contribute to an aged appearance. "The jowls came quietly... but suddenly I can't unsee them."

"Why do these lines make me look tired?"

Facial laxity can make folds around the nose and mouth appear more noticeable. "I slept enough. Why do I still look tired?"

"I look okay in the mirror, but terrible in photos."

Certain angles, lighting and camera lenses can make facial sagging and loss of definition more obvious. "POV: You suddenly understand why you hate candid photos."

"I don't feel this old... but my face is starting to look it."

Skin laxity can change facial proportions and create an older-looking lower face. "Your age is 40. Your face doesn't have to look 50."

"Why does my makeup suddenly make my face look heavier?"

Changes in facial contours can make familiar makeup techniques look different. "When your makeup isn't the problem... your facial contour is."

"I keep pulling my skin up to see what I used to look like."

That moment can make patients more aware of facial laxity. "We've all done the mirror lift..."

"I feel like my face changed so much in the last few years."

Collagen loss and tissue laxity become more noticeable with age. "It didn't happen overnight. You just suddenly noticed it."

"I want lifting, but I'm not ready for a facelift."

Patients may want a minimally invasive option but need realistic expectations about what it can achieve. "Want a lifted look without surgery?"

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a Threadlift?

Threadlift is a minimally invasive procedure where medical threads are placed beneath the skin to provide support and a lifting effect to selected areas of the face.

2. What areas can be treated?

Depending on your anatomy and the technique used, Threadlift may be used to address areas such as the cheeks, jawline and jowls. Your doctor will determine which areas are appropriate.

3. Will it make my face look unnatural?

The goal is a natural-looking improvement, not to change your facial identity. The treatment is planned according to your facial structure and degree of laxity.

4. Is Threadlift painful?

Local anaesthetic is used to improve comfort. You may still feel pressure, pulling or some discomfort during the procedure.

5. How long does the procedure take?

Treatment time varies depending on the areas being treated, number and type of threads, and the technique used. Your clinic can provide an estimated duration during consultation.

6. Will I have swelling or bruising?

Yes, swelling, bruising, tenderness and a temporary tight or pulling sensation can occur after Threadlift. The degree varies between individuals.

7. How long is the recovery?

Most patients can expect some early swelling, bruising and tenderness, which gradually settle. Recovery varies depending on the individual and treatment performed.

8. Can I go back to work after Threadlift?

This depends on your job, the extent of treatment and your comfort level. If your work involves a lot of physical activity or public-facing interaction, your doctor may recommend allowing more recovery time.

9. Can I exercise after Threadlift?

Strenuous exercise is generally restricted during the early recovery period. Follow the specific timeline provided by your doctor.

10. Can I sleep normally after Threadlift?

Your doctor may recommend sleeping on your back and avoiding pressure on the treated areas during the early healing period. Follow your clinic's specific instructions.

11. When will I see the result?

Some lifting may be noticeable immediately, but swelling can temporarily affect the appearance. The result becomes clearer as the tissues settle during recovery.

12. How long does the result last?

Longevity varies considerably depending on the thread material, technique, individual ageing process, skin/tissue characteristics and lifestyle. Your doctor can give you a more personalised expectation.

13. Does Threadlift stimulate collagen?

Some thread types are designed to provide mechanical support and may also stimulate a tissue response associated with collagen production. The extent varies according to the thread and individual response.

14. Is Threadlift the same as a facelift?

No. Threadlift is a minimally invasive procedure and does not provide the same degree or permanence of lifting as surgical facelift surgery.

15. Can I combine Threadlift with other aesthetic treatments?

Potentially, but this depends on your facial anatomy, treatment areas and timing. Your doctor should determine which combinations are appropriate and when they should be performed.

16. How many threads do I need?

There is no universal number. The treatment plan depends on your facial anatomy, degree of laxity, treatment area and desired outcome.

17. Can everyone have a Threadlift?

No. A medical assessment is needed to determine whether you're a suitable candidate. Certain medical conditions, medications, active infections or anatomical factors may make treatment unsuitable or require additional consideration.

18. What happens if I don't like the result?

Early swelling and asymmetry can make the result look different during recovery, so the final appearance should not be judged too early. If you have concerns, speak with your treating doctor for assessment.

19. Are there risks?

As with any medical procedure, Threadlift has potential risks and complications. These can include bruising, swelling, infection, pain, asymmetry, thread visibility/palpability, dimpling and other complications. Your doctor should discuss the risks relevant to your treatment.

20. How do I know if Threadlift is right for me?

Start with a consultation. Your doctor can assess your facial laxity, tissue characteristics and goals, then explain whether Threadlift—or another treatment—would be more appropriate.

Non-Surgical Rejuvenation

Threadlift isn't about changing your face. It's about restoring definition where you feel you've lost it.
