Reversing the Effects of Skin Laxity
An inevitable sign of ageing is skin laxity. This is when the skin around your cheeks, jawline or other areas of your body begins to lose some of its elasticity. We help our patients combat these signs of ageing with thread lift, an effective and non-invasive procedure for firmer, healthier-looking skin.
Causes of Loose Skin
Losing collagen, smoking, pregnancy, and getting too much sun are a few common causes of loose skin. Some patients also experience skin laxity after losing a significant amount of weight.
How Can Thread Lifts Help?
Designed to reverse the signs of ageing in the face and neck, thread lifts involve inserting dissolvable Polydioxanone threads safely under your skin. The threads are pulled and tightened to lift sagging areas, resulting in a smoother and more youthful complexion. Suitable for foreheads, cheeks, jowls, eyebrows, jawlines and more, this pain-free solution is ideal for those experiencing mild to moderate signs of loose skin.

What is Face Thread Lift?
A thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to lift and tighten sagging skin on the face and neck. It involves the use of biodegradable threads, made of materials such as polydioxanone (PDO), polylactic acid (PLA), or poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which are inserted under the skin to lift and reposition the tissue.
