Why thread lift?

The thread lift procedure offers a less invasive option compared to traditional facelift surgery. It aims to firm the skin by introducing medical-grade threads into the face and then tightening these threads to lift the skin upwards.

Thread Lift is offered in our Markham, Toronto, and North York location.

Who is thread lift suitable for?

People in their late 30s to early 50s, noticing the initial signs of aging and maintaining good health, typically make the best candidates for a thread lift. This procedure offers them a gentle enhancement that subtly counters aging.

Those who can’t have a surgical facelift because of medical conditions that make general anesthesia risky may consider a thread lift as a safer alternative.

Common questions常见问题

A thread lift uses absorbable, barbed threads placed beneath the skin to reposition sagging tissue and improve facial contours. At Rejuuv, we use Aptos PLLA threads, which also support collagen stimulation as they gradually dissolve. As the threads safely dissolve over time, they trigger your body to produce a surge of new collagen around them.

Local anesthetic is used to improve comfort. You may still feel pressure, pulling, or mild discomfort during the procedure, followed by temporary tenderness afterward.

Swelling, bruising, tenderness, tightness, or temporary skin irregularities can occur during healing. Results become more natural as swelling settles over the following weeks.

No. A thread lift provides a more subtle, minimally invasive lift with less recovery, but it cannot achieve the same degree of tissue repositioning or longevity as surgery.

  • Some visible swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the treatment site dissipating within 24-48 hours
  • You will notice an immediate lift

More about Thread Lift

The first thread lifting system approved by the FDA and Health Canada.  A very safe non-surgical procedure that is done by a fully trained experienced physician to help lift sagging skin and produce new collagen in the face and neck. The suture thread system can be done in about 1 hr and will give immediate lifting results on sagging skin to rejuvenate the face. The threads are produced in the USA and subject to rigorous sanitary and quality controlled conditions. Results will last between 18-24 months. This procedure also activates your natural collagen production to boost volume over time for up to 2 years. Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. at Rejuuv has been trained in threads and was picked as one of 10 Physicians in Canada to learn and help train other physicians in 2018. Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. has extensive experience and expertise with all the different thread lifting techniques.

Thread Lift is offered in our Toronto, Markham and North York medi spa. 

Here’s a detailed walkthrough of what occurs during a thread lift treatment:

  • The practitioner first assesses the skin for areas of laxity and outlines the precise locations for thread insertion.
  • To ensure a comfortable and painless process, local anesthesia is administered to the areas being treated.
  • The threads are carefully positioned and shaped before being drawn tight. Their cone-shaped ends catch onto the skin tissue, lifting and supporting areas that have sagged.
  • Excess thread is trimmed off to secure them discreetly beneath the skin.

Typically, a thread lift takes about 30 to 45 minutes to complete. It involves minimal to no downtime, allowing patients to promptly resume work and everyday activities. The procedure has few side effects, with any mild soreness, swelling, or bruising expected to diminish within a couple of days.

Doctor's Orders

  • Avoid washing your face for 12 hours
  • Avoid sleeping on your stomach or side
  • Limit facial motion for 24 hours 
  • Eat soft foods for 5-7 days
