Thread Lifting is an effective way to gently lift sagging areas of the face – without surgery. In my practice in Frankfurt, I use this minimally invasive method specifically to firm up your facial contours and sustainably activate the body’s own collagen production.
What is a Thread Lifting and how Does it Work?
During Thread Lifting, different types of threads made of biodegradable materials are used, depending on the treatment goal. Depending on the type, these achieve different effects in order to lift sagging areas of the face and/or stimulate collagen production.
A basic distinction is made between two modes of action:
- Mechanical lifting using lifting threads: Special threads with fine barbs or cones are inserted into the subcutaneous tissue. They anchor there and make it possible to specifically lift and tighten the tissue. The result is an immediately visible lifting effect.
- Biological effect through collagen stimulation: Both lifting threads and smoother threads, which are primarily used for skin tightening, stimulate the body’s own new collagen formation during their natural degradation process. Over several months, this leads to an improved, firmer skin structure and ensures a long-lasting rejuvenation effect.
