What a Thread Lift Involves

A thread lift is easier to follow once you know what it is meant to treat. This page lists those areas as a published source gives them, for readers around Cos Cob.

Start with the thread lift overview if the term is new to you.

The four areas the society lists

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons lists four things a thread lift can treat: early loosening of the facial structures, jowls, sagging eyebrows and premature loosening of the neck skin. Check your own concern against that list.

A second source to read

The thread lift page on benefits and complications is another place to read what the procedure involves. Compare the two.

Steps to take

  • Pick the concern from the list that matches yours.
  • Ask your provider whether you are a good candidate.
  • Write down what your provider says the procedure involves for you.
