Before & after thread facelift

What is a thread lift & how does it work?

A thread lift is a non-surgical facelift alternative designed to reposition sagging facial tissue, stimulate collagen renewal, and restore the natural shape of the face. It’s especially effective for treating mild to moderate skin laxity.

At Bold Street Clinic, we offer two types of thread systems:

Spring Thread® – The one stitch facelift

Crafted in France and made of medical-grade polyester encased in silicone, these threads are:

  • 100% biocompatible
  • Flexible enough to follow your facial movement
  • Designed with rounded bi-directional cogs to minimise tissue trauma
  • Created with controlled elasticity for optimal, natural movement and lift
  • Inserted with a swaged atraumatic needle, reducing risks and ensuring smooth placement

MINT PDO threads

Polydioxanone (PDO) threads dissolve over time, promoting collagen synthesis while offering visible lifting and tightening effects that improve over 6–12 months.

Both thread types are placed under local anaesthetic, with no general anaesthesia or overnight stay required.

Target areas for thread lift treatment

Thread lifts are ideal for lifting and reshaping various parts of the face, neck, and even the body. At Bold Street Clinic, we commonly treat:

  • Sagging jawlines (jowls)
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Drooping cheeks
  • Heavy brows
  • Loss of cheekbone definition
  • Lax neck skin
  • Corners of the mouth (marionette lines)
  • Facial asymmetry correction

In some cases, threads can also be used to lift sagging skin on the breasts or buttocks, though facial lifting remains the most popular and effective application.

The benefits of thread lifts

  • Non-surgical facelift alternative Get a visible lift without going under the knife, with treatment carried out in clinic under local anaesthetic.
  • Minimal downtime and fast recovery Most people are back to work and their normal routine within 2 to 3 days of treatment.
  • Can stimulate long-term collagen production Skin can keep building its own collagen long after treatment, so you look firmer and fresher for longer.
  • Results that improve gradually The results of a thread lift appear and improve gradually over a period of months.
  • Lasts up to 3-5 years Spring Thread® treatments can last up to 3-5 years, which is longer than the standard PDO facelift.
  • Can be combined with other treatments Thread lifts can also be combined with other treatments such as dermal fillers or Profhilo for a bespoke rejuvenation plan.

All about thread facelifts

Spring Thread® results last up to 5 years, while PDO threads typically last 12-18 months with collagen benefits continuing beyond that.

  • Dr Paul was amazing!
