Threadlifts
Thread lifts are a type of minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that can help improve the appearance of sagging skin on the face and neck. The procedure involves using dissolvable threads made of materials like polylactic acid, polydioxanone, or PDO, to lift and tighten the skin.
With ageing, our skin gradually loses its firmness and elasticity. Together with volume loss in the subcutaneous fat, this gives rise to a saggy appearance. Threadlifts use a unique, patented resorbable suture with cones along its length, to lift the surface of the skin to reduce skin sagging. This also stimulates the production of collagen to restore firmness in the face, without having a full surgical face lift.*
The thread lift in Manchester is most effective for improving saggy cheeks, nasolabial lines, and the contour of jawline and neck.

Through the repositioning of the fat deposits and elevation of the skin, Thread lifts restore the face and neck shape and redefines specifically cheek and jawline contours. The suspension suture and cone technology repositions the skin and fat, particularly around the cheeks and jawline, to give definition and providing immediate effects.
Long-term effects come from the body’s foreign body reaction, which stimulates collagen synthesis from the activation of the fibroblasts present in the skin. This stimulation occurs in the tissue area surrounding the suture and cones. Collagen production is naturally reduced with ageing and therefore this ‘re-stimulation’ is pivotal to providing long-term improvement of the face and neck contours.
