Thread Lifts

H Med Spa provides expert nonsurgical facelifts to our patients through the use of FDA-approved threads. Book an appointment today to consult with our medical doctor and discuss your treatment options.

What is a Thread Lift?

During a thread lift, a physician inserts sutures below the skin’s surface to create a visible lift in the skin. The skin is pulled gently upwards to lift the cheeks, forehead and other target areas, depending on the client’s aging process. This lifts and tightens the skin slightly to produce a mini facelift effect without the need for surgery. Threads not only physically lift the skin, they stimulate the body’s healing process, which delivers fresh collagen to the treatment areas. Thread lifts offer immediate results plus ongoing collagen production for a comprehensive, lasting lift.

Types of Threads

At H Med Spa, most commonly performed services are Eyebrow Lift, Mid-Face Lift and Under Chin Lift using Novathreads or Instalift threads.

• Novathreads: Polydiaxahone (PDO) threads are a special medical grade thread that is thinner than hair, made of protein.

• Silhouette Instalift uses absorbable microns to instantly lift aging, mid-facial skin, including sagging cheeks and deeper nasolabial folds. This procedure also activates your natural collagen production to boost volume over time for up to 2 years. This allows for a more involved, lasting result than with fillers, without needing to undergo facelift surgery.

How to Prepare for Your Appointment

• Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment

• Don’t take painkillers in advance, as these can make you more likely to bruise due to blood thinning effects.

• Tell your provider any medications you’re taking - it may be beneficial to avoid topical anti-aging products.

• Arrive at the office with your face washed and makeup-free.
