Thread Lift
Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that might be considered an alternative to facelift surgery. While the results will not be as dramatic as a surgical procedure, thread lifting sculpts, firms, and defines the facial features to remove years from their appearance. A thread lift treatment purpose is to pull the skin slightly back to tighten the face and give it a more youthful appearance. ‘Threads stimulate collagen formation in the skin, which aids in the restoration of volume and helps one to achieve youthful and tighter skin’, shares dermatologist in Delhi Dr. Sarita Sanke at DermoRita Skin Clinic.

Thread Lift Treatment Benefits
- Thread lift is the most recent technology for facial retightening. Through the action of resorbable sutures (safe medical threads often used to hold and seal epidermis or dermis skin tissue), the procedure helps to generate the desired facial contour and lift.
- It is a novel and highly specialised cosmetic procedure that improves and redefines facial contours without the need for invasive surgical procedures.
- It offers several benefits, including minimal downtime due to the minimally invasive treatment and a natural-looking result without the tell-tale marks of plastic surgery.
- It is a non-invasive treatment that does not require lengthy hospital stays and is usually performed by licensed doctors in a specialised surgical room.
- The thread-lifting procedure will produce long-lasting benefits by naturally and effectively lifting the brows, jawline, cheeks, malar area, and neck.
- The treatment results are apparent immediately, but as collagen production increases, results gradually improve in the weeks and months following the procedure. Since the body needs time to produce collagen, visible benefits will take time.

- Must not be suffering from any blood disorders, infection or rashes
- Suffering from facial sagging that is mild to moderate.
- They are often between the ages of 30 and 55

How Does Thread Lift Work?
The thread used in this treatment is made up of a polylactic acid resorbable suture (thread) and lactide or glycolide-moulded cones.
The suture (thread) functions as scaffolding beneath the skin's surface to elevate sagging soft skin tissue. These cones keep the suture in place. The suture and cones are completely absorbed by the body and, over time, stimulate the body's creation of collagen to restore lost facial volume, which shrinks with age.
After applying local anaesthesia to the face, the doctor injects the thread lift suture under the skin with a small needle. Following the insertion of the suture, the doctor applies light pressure to the treated area to restore the skin's surface and accomplish instant lift.
Thread lifting can be performed on a variety of areas of the face to provide long-lasting benefits.
With a thread lift treatment in Delhi offered by Dr. Sarita Sanke, one can achieve tighter skin, increased skin firmness, a refined look, a contoured face, and an uplifted chin, cheeks, eyebrows, and neck. The treatment can counteract the premature ageing of the skin by lifting it and also by boosting collagen production.
Thread Lift Procedure
A thread lift can be performed in the clinic without requiring general anaesthesia. Local anaesthetic injections are given to the patient along the lines where the suture material will be provided.
Silhouette threads are a type of thread that comes with a long needle. This needle is passed through the face in the proper retraction vector. The needle is then detached from the threads, and the thread ends retract back under the skin.
Mint threads are a brand of thread that is introduced using a blunt cannula that contains the thread. The time it takes to complete the procedure varies based on the number of threads used, but it normally takes between 1 and 2 hours.
After Thread Lift
Most of the regular activities can be resumed immediately. One should be able to resume their normal schedule soon. For a few days, avoid vigorous exercise and swimming, and avoid wearing make-up for the first 24 hours.
It is normal to have swelling, bruising, and dimpling on the skin in the first week following a thread lift. There may be a sensation of tightness in the face, particularly while opening and closing the mouth. Face stiffness is common, but it is rarely painful. There will be no visible scars after this procedure with a small recovery time.
