How to Prepare for a Thread Lift?

During your initial consultation, the doctor will understand your issue and will know your expectations from the procedure. The doctor also reviews your medical history and you should provide all the required medical information. You can ask any questions you may have.

The doctor will give you certain instructions to be followed before the procedure such as:

• Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol for about 24 hours before your procedure
• Avoid using certain medications that may have the risk of bruising and bleeding

What Happens During a Thread Lift?

Before performing the procedure, the surgeon will first clean the area to be treated using water and soap to remove dirt, and other substances on the skin. The next steps are as follows:

• Now, a numbing cream is applied.
• Once the treatment site becomes numb, the topical anesthesia will be wiped.
• The face is again cleaned using iodine or chlorhexidine and markings will be made on the face using a surgical pen
• Now, threads are inserted into the marked sites under your skin using a small needle.

The entire procedure can take up to one hour based on the extent of lift required. Once the procedure is completed, you can go back home.

Results and Recovery from Procedure

After completing the procedure, you can notice an immediate lifting effect at the treated site. Over time, your skin continues to improve as the new collagen gives a firmer, and smoother appearance.

Following the procedure, you may have bruising, discomfort, and swelling for a few days. The doctor will give instructions on how to take care of the treated area. Some of them include:

• Avoid washing your face for 24 hours post procedure
• Apply cold or ice pack on the treated site
• Avoid using face moisturizers and makeup for a few days
