Thread lift plastic surgery is a non invasive surgery that helps to smooth out wrinkles, fine lines and creases and makes you look many years younger. Popularly known as the 'lunchtime face lift', thread lift plastic surgery has a faster recovery rate than other cosmetic surgeries. It is also a viable alternative to face lift surgery. In thread lift surgery, a surgical thread is inserted into the subcutaneous layer of the skin. The thread is then pulled to firm up the skin and get rid of wrinkles and folds.

Surgical Procedure of Thread Lift Plastic Surgery

Small incisions are made along the hair line. Fine needles attached to contour threads or barbed sutures are inserted through the incisions into the subcutaneous layer of the skin. The contour threads have tiny clogs attached to them. The thread is then pulled to firm up the skin and do away with the wrinkles and fine lines. A mirror is held up to the face so that the patient can direct the surgeon so as to achieve the desired appearance. A thread lift surgery can normally last up to seven years.
