This minimally invasive thread lift targets the area beneath the chin and along the jawline to improve contour and projection. Using medical-grade threads inserted through minor entry points, the treatment provides subtle structural support while stimulating collagen production over time.
It may be suitable for individuals seeking to enhance their chin definition or achieve a more balanced lower face without undergoing surgical procedures or fat removal.
Also referred to as a suture suspension lift, this minimally invasive procedure utilises medical-grade threads to reposition and support the tissues beneath the chin and along the jawline. These threads are inserted through minor puncture entry points and placed beneath the skin to create lift, improve contour, and stimulate collagen production.
The treatment offers a structural yet subtle enhancement without the need for implants, fat removal, or incisions. It can improve the definition of the lower face and reduce the appearance of early sagging or soft tissue descent.
A soft or under-projected chin
Mild sagging beneath the chin
Early jowling or heaviness along the jawline
Poor definition between the chin and neck
A desire to enhance the lower face without undergoing surgery
While results are not a substitute for surgical correction in more advanced cases, this approach provides a discreet and low-downtime option for those seeking a more sculpted and balanced profile.
Your journey starts with a one-on-one consultation. We will assess your current nose structure, explore your goals, concerns, and determine if a suture lift is the right option for you.
If it’s not the right fit, we’ll offer clear, honest alternatives.
The procedure is performed in-clinic using local anaesthesia and requires only a tiny, precisely placed entry point. Through this, fine threads are inserted and carefully positioned to lift and refine specific areas, such as the tip, bridge, or sides of the nose. Enhancing symmetry and contour to help you achieve a more balanced, desired look.
Expect mild swelling, slight bruising or a feeling of tightness for a few days. No bandages are needed.
Results improve over the next few weeks as the swelling subsides and collagen forms around the threads.
Permanent threads are used to provide lasting structural support. However, the appearance of results may change over time due to factors such as ageing, reduced skin elasticity, and overall facial volume shifts.
While the threads themselves remain in place, maintenance treatments or supportive therapies may be recommended over time to help preserve definition and skin tone.
Yes. The procedure uses CE-marked, non-degradable threads that are widely used in both surgical and aesthetic practice. The treatment is carried out using sterile technique by professionals trained in facial anatomy and thread placement.
Only small entry points are required, which minimises tissue disruption and reduces recovery time. A full consultation is completed before treatment to assess medical suitability and help minimise risks. Aftercare instructions are provided to support proper healing and optimise results.
No — we focus on subtle refinement. Your natural features are respected, and the lift is designed to enhance, not replace.
In some cases, threads can be combined with filler or applied after the filler has dissolved. We’ll assess your current condition and guide you accordingly.
For mild concerns, absolutely. It’s not for major structural corrections, but it’s an excellent option for those seeking minor reshaping with minimal downtime.
Most patients describe it as mildly uncomfortable, with pressure rather than pain. Numbing is used to ensure comfort throughout.
