As age progresses, facial contours begin to sag due to gravity, collagen loss, and decreased skin elasticity.
While this problem could only be solved with surgical facelift operations in the past, today with the advancement of technology, Thread Lift method has become one of the most effective alternatives for non-surgical rejuvenation.
Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz creates a youth effect without disrupting the natural facial expression by analyzing facial anatomy in detail and using personalized thread lifting techniques.
This method is a safe and long-lasting skin tightening application that provides quick recovery.
What is Thread Lift?
Thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure where specially manufactured absorbable medical threads are placed under the skin to reposition sagging tissues upward.
These threads both mechanically pull the skin upward and increase skin quality by triggering collagen production over time.
The threads used are generally PDO (Polydioxanone), PLLA (Poly-L-Lactic Acid), or PCL (Polycaprolactone) structure.
These materials stimulate new collagen formation around them while being absorbed by the body over time and provide a natural lifting effect.
As a result, facial contours become more defined, skin tightens, and a youthful appearance is achieved — and without surgical incisions!
How is Thread Lift Performed?
Before the application, a detailed facial analysis is performed and lifting directions are planned.
Under local anesthesia, threads are placed under the skin through very thin cannulas.
Small barbed hooks (cones) on the threads pull the tissues upward, providing immediate tightening on the skin.
The procedure duration is generally between 30–45 minutes.
The patient can return to daily life immediately after the procedure.
Results are noticeable instantly; however, with increased collagen production, the appearance becomes even more evident within 3–4 weeks.
Who is Thread Lift Suitable For?
Thread lift procedure is ideal for people experiencing sagging, loss of elasticity, or loss of definition in the facial oval.
It is frequently preferred in the following cases:
- Sagging in the mid and lower face area,
- Looseness in cheeks and jawline,
- Eyebrow drooping or sagging at the eye corner,
- Looseness in the neck area,
- People who do not want surgical intervention but seek noticeable results.
From the late twenties onward, it can also be performed as a preventive application to delay early signs of aging.
Effects After Thread Lift
Thread lift procedure not only pulls tissues upward but also stimulates fibroblast cells under the skin to increase collagen and elastin synthesis.
Thanks to this biological effect, the skin tissue gains a tighter and brighter appearance with each passing week after the procedure.
Results Achieved:
- More defined jawline
- Tightened cheeks
- Firm and tight skin tissue
- Young, dynamic, and natural facial expression
Precautions to Take After Thread Lift
Although the recovery process is quite short, some small precautions should be taken:
- Keep facial expressions to a minimum for the first 48 hours.
- Do not put pressure on the face, do not sleep face down.
- Stay away from sauna, steam bath, and excessively hot environments for the first week.
- Use moisturizing and antibacterial creams recommended by your doctor.
- Slight swelling or tension feeling in the first few days is normal, passes within 3–5 days.
Paying attention to these recommendations ensures that the threads are fixed in the correct position and the healing process progresses quickly.
Advantages of Thread Lift
- Not surgical: No incisions, stitches, or anesthesia required.
- Provides instant results: Facial contours are tightened immediately after the procedure.
- Short recovery time: Return to daily life is possible the same day.
- Increases collagen production: Skin quality improves naturally over time.
- Natural results: No frozen or artificial appearance on facial expression.
- Can be combined: Its effect can be supported with procedures such as Morpheus 8, mesotherapy, botox, and filler.
How Long Does Thread Lift Effect Last?
Although the effect duration varies depending on the type of thread used and the person’s skin structure, it has an average permanence of 12–24 months.
During this period, the skin tissue is continuously renewed as the body continues to produce its own collagen.
Renewal sessions performed at regular intervals further extend the permanence of results.
Thread Lift Prices (2025)
Prices vary depending on the number of threads used, thread type (PDO, PLLA, PCL), the area to be treated, and the doctor’s experience.
Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz aims for the most natural and long-lasting result by using a personalized number and angle of threads after detailed analysis of each patient’s facial structure.
