What Is a Thread Lift?
A thread lift uses biodegradable sutures (typically PDO or PLLA) placed just under the skin to gently lift and support sagging tissue. The threads provide an instant mechanical lift while stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production for long-lasting improvement in tone and elasticity.
