What is French Thread Lifting?

French Thread Lifting is a facial rejuvenation technique also known as “non-surgical face lifting”. It is done by using flexible threads made of polyester as internal material and silicone as exterior material. The threads can stretch accordingly with the facial mimics, lifting the face without causing distorted facial expressions, and providing successful rejuvenation effects that can last for an average of 4-6 years.

French Threads can be used to lift and tighten the mid-face, jowls, neck, and/or eyebrows, providing a more youthful and harmonious facial appearance. It is a good alternative for suitable patients who want to obtain a lifting effect without getting scars or big incisions as in surgical lifting procedures, and it can also be combined with other aesthetic procedures. The amount of threads needed for the procedure can vary according to the needs of each patient and the amount of areas to treat.

What is the Treatment Process Like?

French Thread Lifting is performed by doing only millimetric incisions from where the threads will enter and exit the patient’s tissue. These entry and exit points will be planned strategically for them not to be visible once the healing period is completed. While placing the threads, Dr. Baygöl will reposition the tissues in the treated areas for the lifting and tightening effect. Keep in mind that this kind of technique does not involve skin excision like traditional Facelift surgeries, so this kind of procedure is not recommended for patients with excess skin.
