Non-surgical facelift methods are ideal for individuals who do not want to undergo a traditional facelift or fat injection surgery, prefer to avoid anesthesia, are concerned about the potential negative effects of surgery and anesthesia, and wish for a much shorter recovery period. These non-surgical facelift techniques, which come in various forms, are typically suitable for people from their thirties onwards who do not have excessive sagging and desire tighter skin.
Thread lifts are most often performed in a clinic under local anesthesia. If planned in conjunction with other cosmetic surgeries, the procedure can also be done under general anesthesia in a hospital setting. After an examination, the areas to be treated with thread suspension are determined, and appropriate threads are selected before starting the procedure. Thread lifting generally takes 1-2 hours, depending on the area being treated.
Some of the threads used in thread lifts are self-dissolving. However, threads that are more permanent and provide longer-lasting effects have become increasingly popular. Compared to dissolvable threads, thread lifts performed with these permanent threads result in more effective and longer-lasting outcomes.
