Vancouver thread lift procedure - threading through

Thread lifts: a non-surgical cheek lift and wrinkle treatment

SOLVES:

  • Drooping jowls
  • Marionette lines
  • Nasolabial folds

Lift and tighten skin without surgery!

Also known by names such as, “thread embedding acupuncture” and the “Korean thread lift,” a thread lift is a non-surgical way to tighten and lift skin, thus reducing wrinkles. We use the soft thread lift procedure in our Surrey clinic for those looking to get the appearance of a mild face lift, but without the investment or risks of surgery. Particularly, we use the dissolvable Silhouette InstaLift® product. Our doctor has been specifically approved to perform this technique, and can carry it out safely.

Unlike other thread lifts on the market, the Silhouette InstaLift® has been approved by Health Canada, based on evidence that it does increase collagen in the skin. It is also FDA-cleared, and is very popularly used in Europe.

Procedure Time: 45 – 60 min

Anaesthetic: Required

Treatment Recovery: +/- 1.5 weeks

Risks & Complications: Bruising, edema

Treatment Plan: +/- every 2 years

Why you’ll love Silhouette InstaLift® thread lifts

Dissolvable PLLA

InstaLift® threads are made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) – the same material used for long-lasting medical sutures. They are completely absorbable by the body. This avoids complications.

Dual action

The InstaLift® procedure doesn’t only give the skin an instant ‘tug,’ to tighten up sagginess, wrinkles and crepey areas. It also creates volume through collagen production.

No downtime

Thread lifts don’t require extensive downtime! You may develop bruising or a temporary lump, which should resolve in about a week or so.


Clinically-studied results:

In a study of 100 patients, 79% were happy with their results after 1 week following the procedure. At this point 82% said they would recommend it to others.

After 3 months, 83% said it helped to improve signs of aging. This sentiment only went down to 71% after two years.

White papers on the procedure are available from the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology:

What is a Silhouette InstaLift® procedure like?

Tailor the plan

Surrey thread lift procedure planning

Each person’s facial anatomy is analyzed to determine the best point at which to target the thread lift.

Inject anaesthetic

Local anaesthetic is applied to help with any discomfort during the procedure. 

Insert the threads

Vancouver thread lift procedure - threading cannulas

Long cannulas are inserted into the fat tissue under the skin, threading the sutures along their pathways.

Tug the threads

Sutures are given a ‘tug’ to tighten and position the skin.

Press into place

Surrey thread lift procedure - pressing cones into place

The cones attached to the sutures are pressed into place. This secures the skin’s new position.

Cut the excess

The excess length of the sutures are cut off, leaving no trace of the procedure behind.

How does a Silhouette InstaLift® work?

Lift skin tissue

InstaLift® threads include bi-directional cones to add extra strength to their lifting action.

Secure skin into place

Once inserted, the threads are ‘anchored’ into place. This keeps the skin secured to its new position.

Restore collagen

The body produces collagen around the cones. This adds volume, which helps restore youthfulness.

These threads typically dissolve within 12 months! You can still have plastic surgery after this procedure!
