Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used not only on the face but also on other areas of the body to tighten the soft tissue of the skin. Different threads are used depending on the goal to be achieved. Thinner monofilament threads are used to improve the skin's texture and surface texture through the formation of new collagen. These are inserted into the tissue with a cannula and are suitable for treating fine lines and wrinkles. If, on the other hand, contours are to be restored and soft skin areas lifted back to their original position, thicker threads with anchors are used. These threads are also inserted into the tissue using a cannula and moved into the desired position using tensile force. The suture material usually consists of polydioxanone, which resorbs after 6 months at the latest and forms a new collagen scaffold. In addition to the face, other areas of the body can also be affected by signs of sagging due to the ageing process and gravity. Here, thread lifting is also a minimally invasive treatment method.

Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that is becoming increasingly popular due to its speed and good tolerability. The material used, polydioxanone (PDO), has been used in surgery for many years and has proven to be very reliable. The treatment is usually performed on an outpatient basis and takes between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on the extent of the procedure. The area to be treated is locally anaesthetised to ensure a pain-free procedure. The sutures used can vary depending on the objective and treatment area. Thin monofilament threads are used, for example, to improve skin texture and treat fine lines and wrinkles, while thicker threads with anchors are used to restore the skin's soft tissue to its original position and restore contours. The results of thread lifting are long-lasting and last between 6 to 18 months. The procedure can be repeated if necessary to maintain the results. Thread lifting is suitable for men and women aged 30 and over who want to effectively combat the signs of ageing, such as loose and wrinkled skin, without undergoing heavy and invasive treatment. Thread lifting can achieve real and natural results that meet the needs of the individual patient.

Thread lifting is a non-invasive method for improving the appearance of the skin and the contours of the face and body. However, as with any medical treatment, there are certain special features and risks that must be taken into account. Firstly, the material used is very reliable and has been used in surgery for decades. The treatment itself takes between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on the extent of the procedure, and is performed under local anaesthetic. Special threads are inserted under the skin, which have different properties depending on the target. Thinner monofilament threads are used if the aim is to improve the texture and condition of the skin through the formation of new collagen. These are inserted into a cannula and are particularly suitable for treating fine lines and wrinkles. If, on the other hand, the aim is to restore the skin's soft tissue to its original position and thus restore contours, stronger threads with anchors are used. These are also located in a cannula and are inserted into the tissue, where they are moved into the desired position using tensile force. The thread material used here (polydioxanone) dissolves within 6 months at the latest, forming a completely new collagen scaffold around the thread. However, it is important to note that side effects can occur after each treatment. These include pain, swelling, bruising, tenderness and skin irregularities in the treated area. These side effects usually subside after four to six days and it is recommended to take it easy and cool the treated areas. Taking natural remedies such as arnica and bromelain or other anti-inflammatory medication can also help. We take a lot of time during the consultation to inform you in detail about the post-interventional behavioural measures and to help you optimise your results and avoid complications. Thread lifting is a safe and effective method of improving skin appearance and contours, but it is important that you are aware that there are risks and side effects and that professional advice and care from experienced practitioners is essential.
