What Is a Thread Face Lift?
A thread face lift is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment that uses medical-grade dissolvable sutures to lift and support areas of sagging skin.
The threads are carefully placed beneath the skin, where they help reposition tissue and encourage collagen production. This makes the treatment suitable for patients who want a refreshed look without undergoing a surgical facelift.
Thread lifts are often chosen to improve:
- Softened jawline definition
- Mild jowling
- Lower face laxity
- Drooping brows
- Midface descent
- Loose skin around the neck
- Overall facial contour
For patients exploring wider non-surgical facial rejuvenation, our aesthetic treatments page explains more about related options.
How Thread Lifts Work
Thread lifts work in two main ways, immediate lifting and longer-term collagen stimulation.
Immediate Lifting Effect
Fine medical threads are inserted into the subcutaneous layer of the skin. Depending on the treatment area, the threads may use small barbs or cones to anchor gently to the tissue. This allows the skin and underlying support structures to be lifted and repositioned.
Collagen Stimulation
Once the threads are in place, the body begins a natural healing response. This can encourage collagen production around the treated area, helping improve firmness, texture and skin support over time.
The threads gradually dissolve, but the collagen response may help results remain visible beyond the life of the threads.
Treatment Areas Available
We offer thread lift treatment for several facial areas, depending on your skin quality, anatomy and goals.
Eyebrow Lift
An eyebrow thread lift can help subtly lift the brow area, creating a fresher and more open appearance.
Lower Jawline Lift
A lower jawline lift is designed to improve definition where mild jowling or softness has developed.
Midface Lift
A midface lift can support the cheek area and help improve facial contour where mild descent has occurred.
Neck & Jawline Lift
This option focuses on tightening and supporting the lower face and neck area for improved definition.
Full Face Lift
A full face thread lift may be considered where several areas require support, including the brows, cheeks, jawline and lower face.
Who Is Suitable for a Thread Lift?
Thread lifts are usually most suitable for people with mild to moderate skin laxity. They are often considered by patients in their late 30s to 50s who are beginning to notice sagging but do not yet require surgical intervention.
You may be suitable if you have:
- Mild sagging around the cheeks
- Early jowling
- Softening of the jawline
- Mild neck laxity
- Drooping brows
- Good general skin quality
- Realistic expectations
A thread lift is not a replacement for a surgical facelift. It may not be suitable for severe skin laxity, significant volume loss or advanced tissue descent.
If another treatment may be more appropriate, your clinician will explain this clearly during the consultation.

Your Thread Lift Journey at Altri Medical Ltd
Consultation & Facial Assessment
Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation. Your clinician will assess your facial anatomy, skin laxity, medical history and desired outcome.
Treatment Planning
The most suitable treatment areas are discussed, such as eyebrow, midface, jawline, neck and jawline, or full-face lifting. You will receive clear guidance on what is achievable.
Treatment Delivery
Thread lift treatment is carried out under local anaesthesia. Fine threads are carefully inserted and positioned to lift and support the selected areas.
Aftercare & Recovery Guidance
You will receive clear aftercare advice before leaving the clinic. Mild swelling, bruising, tenderness or puckering can occur and usually settle with time.
Results & Recovery
The initial lifting effect may be visible soon after treatment, although swelling can temporarily affect the final appearance.
Collagen-stimulating benefits develop gradually over the following weeks and months. Threads usually dissolve within 6 to 12 months, while results may last longer depending on skin quality, lifestyle, age and treatment response.
Most patients return home the same day. Your clinician will explain what to avoid after treatment, including pressure on the area, certain facial movements and specific activities during the early healing period.
