Facelift with thread lift (French lift)

The thread facelift procedure aims to give the skin a tighter and younger appearance with special threads placed in the subcutaneous connective tissue. These threads support the face as if they are bones. They stimulate the synthesis of natural collagen while dissolving. As a result, collagen production in the face peaks in 6 months. This leads to tightening in the skin and a decrease in sagging.

How are thread facelift procedures performed?

Before the threads are placed in the face or the scalp, the entry point is numbed with an anesthetic injection. Then, the cannula containing the threads is moved under the skin through a tiny hole opened with a needle. Once 

the threads are in place and in the correct shape and tension, the cannula is removed.

Are thread facelift procedures painful?

Before the threads are placed in the face or scalp, the entry point is numbed with an anesthetic injection. The patient does not feel any pain due to this. Since there are not any nerves under the skin, the cannula phase causes no pain.

What should be considered after a thread facelift procedure?

There might be redness, bruising, and swelling on the skin for a few days after the procedure. It is advised to apply ice to the area to reduce them. During the first 3 weeks after the procedure, the patient should be mindful of their mimics, not open their mouth too much, not apply pressure on the face, and not sleep face down. After these 3 weeks, the patient can move the area with the threads normally.

How long does a thread facelift last?

It depends on the used material and post-operative attention of the patient. While regular threads last between 1.5-3 years, non-dissolving silicon threads last even more.

In which cases can thread facelift procedures be performed? Can they be performed during the summer?

People who do not have an increased amount of sagging and deep wrinkles can make use of a thread facelift. It is generally performed on patients desiring a younger and livelier appearance, aged between 30-65, without a severe loss of elasticity on their face, and who do not require a serious face lifting surgery. Both men and women can undergo this procedure. However, if the patient has severe illnesses, such as connective tissue diseases or immunodeficiencies, the procedure is planned according to the patient and the disease. If you have a disease, please inform your doctor during the planning of the treatment. Since they do not cause sensitivity to the sun, they can be performed in all seasons.
