Thread lifting is an innovative, minimally invasive method for skin tightening and contouring without surgery. It uses special, absorbable threads that are inserted under the skin to gently lift sagging tissue and stimulate natural collagen production. This technique provides immediate tightening with a long-lasting rejuvenating effect.
How does a thread lift work?
A thread lift is a minimally invasive method of skin tightening that produces both an immediate lifting effect and long-term skin improvement. Self-dissolving threads are inserted under the skin using fine needles to gently lift sagging areas. At the same time, these threads stimulate the body's own collagen production, which strengthens and firms the skin structure in the long term. The materials used, such as polydioxanone (PDO), dissolve by themselves after a few months, while the newly formed collagen ensures long-lasting tightening.
Treatment zones
The treatment is suitable for various areas, including the face - especially the cheeks, jawline, eyebrows and neck - as well as the décolleté and areas with slight sagging skin on the body. A cheek lift (midface) provides more contour and volume to the midsection of the face, while lifting the chin and jawline region helps to create a clearer facial contour. By lifting the eyebrows, a cat-eye or fox-eye look can be achieved, which opens up the gaze and creates a more expressive eye area. The thread lift is also suitable for reducing marionette and nasolabial folds, making the face appear fresher and more harmonious overall.
Treatment procedure
A thread lift is performed on an outpatient basis under local anaesthetic and takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. At the beginning, a detailed consultation takes place, during which the optimal placement of the threads is determined individually. After the skin has been disinfected and locally anaesthetized, the threads are inserted under the skin using a fine cannula and positioned in such a way that the desired lifting result is achieved. This is followed by precise sculpting to optimize the tightening. After the treatment, there may be slight swelling or small bruises for a short time, which will subside within a few days. For optimal results, it is recommended that you avoid strong facial expressions, facial treatments and intensive physical activity for the first few days.
Result and durability
The tightening effect is immediately visible and continues to improve over the following weeks, while collagen production is stimulated. Depending on the material used and the individual skin condition, the results last for 12 to 24 months.

Is the result immediately visible?
Yes, the lifting effect is visible immediately after the treatment. The skin structure continues to improve over the following weeks as the threads stimulate collagen production.
How long do the results of a thread lift last?
The stitches dissolve by themselves within 6-12 months. However, the tightening effect can last up to 18-24 months as collagen production continues. A healthy lifestyle is crucial for the further development of the skin.
Is the treatment painful?
The thread lift is performed with a local anesthetic so that the treatment is largely pain-free. There may be a slight feeling of tension after the treatment.
Is there any downtime after the thread lift?
Most patients can return to their daily routine immediately. However, there may be slight swelling, bruising or temporary asymmetry, which will subside within a few days.
Can a thread lift be combined with other treatments?
Yes, thread lifting can be combined with hyaluronic acid fillers, a wrinkle treatment, PRP or laser treatments to further optimize the result.
Who is a suitable candidate for a thread lift?
The thread lift is particularly suitable for people with incipient skin laxity who want a gentle tightening without surgery. However, a surgical facelift may be the better option for severe excess tissue.
What side effects are possible?
Slight swelling, redness or small hematomas are possible, but usually disappear within a few days. In rare cases, infections or a visible thread structure may occur.
What should I bear in mind after treatment?
During the first few days, strong facial expressions, chewing hard foods and pressure or rubbing on the treated areas should be avoided. Sport, sauna and sunbathing should also be avoided for about a week.
