Threads

LA's instant lifting threads.

Be refreshed and lifted with facial threads. 

Instant lifting threads is a minimally invasive procedure that is done under local anaesthesia. With special threads and technique, this treatment can elevate facial skin and soft tissues, reposition and support cheeks, jowls, and brows to create an enhanced, rejuvenated and more youthful facial shape and form.

Common treatment areas for Threads are: cheeks,  jowls, nasolabial creases, and marionette lines. 

What to expect:

During the treatment threads are inserted with a fine needle and laying a dissolvable suspension thread into the fatty layer of the skin. The thread placement repositions the fat and tissues that have naturally dropped during the aging process. When the threads are pulled, cones along the thread to tighten the underlying layer, which repositions the fat pads to provide an immediate and lasting effect.

After the threads have been laid, they stimulate the body to create collagen around them. The threads are slowly resorbed by the body over 6-9 months with newly created collagen product up to 18 months.
