A nose thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at lifting and reshaping the nose without surgery. Here’s an overview:

What is a Nose Thread Lift?

A nose thread lift uses absorbable threads to create a lifted and more defined nasal structure. These threads are typically made of polydioxanone (PDO), a material that is safely absorbed by the body over time.

Procedure

Numbing cream and local aesthetic are applied on the nose. Nose thread which are made of PDO (polydioxanone) are inserted into the nose. This gives an immediate lift and definition to the nose bridge and tip, resulting in a higher and more defined nose bridge and a sharper nose.

PDO threads will dissolve overtime, stimulate new collagen and fibroblasts, resulting in tighter skin, enhancing the nose’s contour and definition. The effect usually lasts between 12 – 18 months.

1. Consultation: The process begins with a consultation to discuss the desired outcome and assess if the procedure is suitable.
2. Preparation: The treatment area is cleaned and a local anesthetic is applied to numb the nose.
3. Insertion: Threads are inserted using a fine needle or cannula along the nasal bridge or tip, depending on the desired correction.
4. Adjustment: The threads are then adjusted to achieve the desired lift and contour.
5. Completion: Once the desired shape is achieved, the threads are trimmed and the area is cleaned.

Benefits

• Minimally Invasive: No incisions or stitches required.
• Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime with most people returning to normal activities within a day.
• Natural Look: Provides a subtle enhancement rather than a dramatic change.
• Immediate Results: Initial lift is visible right after the procedure, with continued improvement as collagen forms around the threads.
• Compared to nose fillers, nose thread lift do not cause problems with migration, spreading or arterial occlusion.
