Threadlift
What is a Contour ThreadLift?A Contour ThreadLift is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure designed to rejuvenate your appearance by gently lifting sagging skin. This innovative technique delivers natural-looking results similar to a traditional facelift — without the need for surgery or extended downtime. At Sanjay Rithik Hospital, we use Contour Threads, specially designed non-absorbable barbed sutures, known for their safety and proven effectiveness in facial contouring.
Understanding Contour Threads
Contour Threads are unique, non-absorbable sutures made from high-quality polypropylene. Unlike regular smooth sutures, these threads feature tiny, tooth-like barbs that securely grip the underlying soft tissues. This enables the threads to lift and support drooping areas beneath the skin, restoring a youthful contour with precision.
Areas That Can Be Treated
Contour ThreadLift is versatile and can address multiple signs of aging, including:✅ Lifting and balancing uneven or drooping eyebrows ✅ Elevating sagging cheeks ✅ Tightening the mid to lower face and neck area ✅ Smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines
Who is an Ideal Candidate?
This procedure is perfect for men and women aged between their 30s and 60s experiencing mild to moderate sagging in the face, neck, or brow. Individuals should be in good health with realistic expectations. If you want to enhance your facial appearance without undergoing invasive surgery, Contour ThreadLift at Sanjay Rithik Hospital offers an excellent option.
How is the Procedure Performed?
During the process, our professional specialists use a small needle to inject Contour Threads beneath the skin. These threads include microscopic barbs that grab into loose tissue, gently lifting and repositioning it. Once in place, the threads provide an internal support structure, effectively contouring the treated areas. The needle is removed, and the thread ends are secured deep under the skin, ensuring no visible sutures remain.
Duration of the Procedure
Contour ThreadLift typically takes between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas treated.
Anesthesia Used
The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia, ensuring comfort throughout. If necessary, mild sedation can be administered for enhanced relaxation.
Is the Procedure Painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the treatment, thanks to the use of local anesthesia. Post-procedure, applying cold compresses for 24 to 48 hours helps reduce any mild swelling or soreness.
Recovery and Aftercare
To protect the threads and ensure optimal results, patients should avoid activities that may disrupt the sutures for at least three weeks. Normal daily activities can typically be resumed quickly, with most patients returning to work within 2 to 3 days.
Visibility of Threads
Contour Threads are placed beneath the skin and are transparent, so they are completely invisible—even under thin or fair skin.
Safety and Risks
Contour ThreadLift is a safe, minimally invasive option for facial rejuvenation. The polypropylene material used in the threads has been trusted in medical applications for years. Adverse effects are rare and usually minor, with any complications being manageable by our experienced team at Sanjay Rithik Hospital.
Expected Results and Longevity
Patients can expect an immediate improvement, typically seeing a 30% to 40% lift in the treated areas. While the threads themselves do not dissolve, the lifting effect lasts around 3 to 5 years, varying by individual. For ongoing rejuvenation, additional threads can be inserted as needed.
