Threadlift: Procedure and Considerations

Threadlift is a procedure that uses surgical threads in the subcutaneous layer to reposition fat tissue, stimulate collagen, and define facial contours. Threads can be absorbable or non-absorbable, barbed or smooth, and come in various lengths and configurations. Common threadlift areas include the cheeks, jawline, and neck. Potential complications include discomfort, bruising, swelling, infection, and irregularities. Patients are advised to avoid heavy activities, sun exposure, and sleeping on the face after a threadlift.
