Traditionally, saggy skin and wrinkles have been treated by facelift surgery. This is one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in the world, with both men and women benefiting from it. However, modern technology has allowed for an alternative: thread lifts. It tackles the same problems but in a less invasive way. As a result, the Manhattan Aesthetics team has seen the demand for this service increase exponentially over the last few years.

About Thread Lifts
Thread lifts are sometimes referred to as barbed suture lifts. It is a more affordable and faster alternative to a traditional facelift. This procedure works by sculpting the shape of your face through a medical-grade suture material. These ‘threads’ are placed under your skin’s surface and help to tighten and tone the area. It gives additional support to the muscles of your face, allowing your skin to remain in certain positions without sagging or creating wrinkles.
This treatment has been around for many years, but it has only really sparked into life lately. This is thanks to new innovations in the threads used to provide the treatment. Results are better than ever before, and treatment times can be as short as 45 minutes.
Thread Lift Cost
The cost of a thread lift treatment will vary from practice to practice depending on the doctor and where you live. Having said that, recent findings point to the national average at just over $2,200. This works out at nearly half the cost of a traditional facelift – so you can see why it’s such a sought after cosmetic treatment.
Am I a Candidate for Thread Lifts?
Thread lifts are ideal for a specific type of candidate. If you have sagging skin in your face or neck regions, it might suit you. Moreover, you’re a perfect candidate if you don’t like surgery and can’t afford to spend time recovering from a facelift. Thread lift treatment is meant for candidates that want a quick and affordable alternative to a facelift.
With that in mind, you are not a good candidate if you want to see dramatic results right away. Thread lifts provide subtle changes that don’t last as long as facelifts. If you want a more permanent solution, facelift surgery may be best for you.
