What You Need To Know About Thread Lifts
2) What Are The Benefits?
he immediate and most obvious benefit of thread lifts come from the effect it has on lifting and tightening sagging skin. They can improve the look of the cheeks, jowls, neck, and brow area. They can also be used to reduce wrinkles and fine lines.
Overall, a thread lift done by a qualified professional can turn back the clock to make a big difference to your physical appearance. A side-benefit for patients is the confidence boost they receive after a thread lift. While this can also be achieved via other cosmetic procedures, thread lifts have the advantage of being minimally invasive and quick. In fact, a thread lift can be completed in as little as 30 minutes.
Thread lifts in Singapore last for typically 1 to 3 years and can be repeated once the results begin to fade off. This also means they may be more cost-effective than other procedures which might need to be redone every few months. Finally, their collagen boosting properties also have a host of benefits as your skin may become more plump and smooth.

Thread lifts are generally low risk procedures and are therefore suitable for most men and women who are experiencing early signs of ageing. They are most effective on individuals who have mild to moderate skin laxity. They are not recommended for individuals with severe skin laxity, as they may not be able to achieve the desired results.
Not all patients may be suitable for a thread lift so it’s best to check with a qualified medical professional before making an appointment and committing.
You will be allowed to go home immediately after a thread lift. It’s best to avoid touching or rubbing the treatment area for at least a week. Participation in high-intensity physical activities may also be discouraged.
You may experience some swelling in the first few days which is perfectly normal. To reduce the swelling you can sleep with your head elevated and use a cold compress to reduce discomfort. Avoid makeup or skincare products for at least 24 hours after the procedure and decrease your exposure to sunlight for the best results. You may also be given further instructions by your doctor which should be followed closely.
