Threading
Non-surgical skin lifting with precise thread placement
Overview
Threading at Kassir Dermatology refers to a minimally invasive thread lift procedure — a popular approach to improving aging and sagging skin without surgery. Using precisely placed absorbable threads, this technique lifts and repositions lax facial tissue, providing immediate improvement with minimal downtime and no general anesthesia.
How It Works
Fine, absorbable threads are inserted under the skin using a thin needle. The threads are then gently pulled to lift and reposition sagging tissue. Over time, the threads stimulate collagen production around them, providing ongoing improvement even as the threads are absorbed by the body.
Am I a Candidate?
Thread lifts are ideal for patients with mild to moderate facial sagging who want improvement without the recovery time of a surgical facelift. A consultation with Dr. Kassir is required to determine candidacy.
What to Expect
Mild swelling and bruising may be present for 1–2 days. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days. Results are immediate and improve over 2–3 months as collagen builds. Results typically last 1–2 years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a thread lift as effective as a surgical facelift?
A thread lift provides more subtle improvement than a surgical facelift and is best suited for patients with mild to moderate laxity. It is an excellent option for those not ready for surgery.
