Thread Lift

A thread lift is a surgery in which thin, temporary stitches are used to give the skin a slight yet noticeable “lift.” Our cosmetic physicians suspend the patient’s sagging facial skin with sutures rather than physically removing it.

This has the effect of elevating and tightening the face by slightly drawing the skin back. Threads are excellent for boosting the skin, but they also work to delay the ageing process by inducing the body’s “healing response” and directing massive amounts of collagen to the treated areas. This is significant since collagen is essential to the ageing process.

The “growth factors” that significantly impact our skin’s health are supported by collagen. Collagen aids in wound healing and maintains our skin’s strength, volume, and suppleness. Our bodies continually create less and less collagen as we age, which results in an 80% drop in skin thickness by the time we reach the age of 70.

This loss of volume and strength significantly influences the development of extra skin and wrinkles. Gravity pushes the skin downward and strains it because the skin loses its ability to support the tissues beneath it as it becomes weaker effectively.

Fresh collagen can be injected into the face’s skin when skin laxity symptoms are still minor to help minimize looseness (by thickening and moisturizing the skin) and stop it from getting worse (by strengthening the skin). Consult the specialist, Dr Simrat Sandhu, today.
