You don’t need to go under the knife to enhance the shape of your nose. Our minimally invasive nose lift utilises medical-grade sutures inserted through a tiny skin entry point to gently lift and contour areas such as the tip, bridge, or nostrils, without significantly altering your natural structure.
It’s a safe, quick and low-downtime solution for those seeking subtle but effective changes to their nose shape, especially when surgery feels too drastic or unnecessary.
The minimally invasive nose lift, also known as thread rhinoplasty or suture lift rhinoplasty, utilises permanent threads placed beneath the skin to create lift, refine shape, and enhance balance in your facial features.
A drooping or low nasal tip
Mild bridge humps or dents
Nose tip that feels flat or wide
Slight asymmetry
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.
We use non-degradable, permanent threads, which means they do not dissolve over time. This allows for longer-lasting structural support and lift compared to temporary thread options.

Maintained Look
However, while the threads remain in place, the appearance of the results may gradually change.
This is due to natural ageing processes, such as collagen loss, reduced skin elasticity, and shifting facial volume, which can affect how the nose looks over time, even with the threads still in place.
Although no maintenance is required for the threads themselves, we may recommend non-surgical treatments, such as skin boosters or collagen-stimulating therapies, to help maintain a refreshed and youthful appearance. In some cases, a top-up or complementary treatment can help preserve your desired result for longer.
Yes, the treatment is safe. We use non-degradable, medical-grade threads that are widely used in both cosmetic and surgical procedures, with a long history of safety and effectiveness.
These threads are carefully selected for their ability to provide lasting results with minimal risks.
The procedure involves making minor incision points through which the threads are inserted, allowing for precise lifting and shaping.
Although the procedure is minimally invasive, the risk of infection is low due to the sterile techniques used during treatment.
Additionally, we prioritise your safety with a comprehensive health consultation conducted by our experienced cosmetic surgeon. This ensures you’re a good candidate for the procedure and helps address any concerns or risks before treatment. If necessary, prophylactic antibiotics will be provided to minimise any chance of infection.
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.
Whether you’ve tried fillers, considered surgical rhinoplasty, or just want to explore what’s possible, we’re here to guide you. You’ll leave your consultation with clarity, honest answers, and no pressure.
Our practice is fully dedicated to this specialised treatment, and the outcome is guided by extensive experience and meticulous precision.
