A facial thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure where a doctor puts temporary stitches under the skin to pull it back to lift and tighten the face. These threads also stimulate the body's healing response and cause the body to produce more collagen in treated areas. It is cheaper than plastic surgery with much less recovery time. The targeted areas of a facial thread lift are the jawline, eyebrow line, under-eye area, forehead, and cheeks. However, facial thread lift can cause complications like skin texture changes, infections, and irritation.
