The jawline thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that utilises thread lifting to reduce sagging skin that can occur in the lower region of the face. With a non-surgical thread lift, the experts at ICCM can help you to create a more youthful contour for your facial aesthetic.

Jawline thread lifting has a profound and natural-looking effect on your look and is only a minimally invasive procedure compared to other surgical options. Thanks to the use of a local anaesthetic, we can see fewer potential risks and downtime.

The cosmetic doctors at ICCM, Dr Ramin Amighian, and Dr Prochazka, are jawline thread-lifting experts who hold positions as national trainers for absorbable threads. When it comes to creating a lift, thread-based procedures are a popular option, and their portfolio includes hundreds of successful treatments.

The benefits of using jawline threads

If you would like to improve the aesthetic of your face, the jawline threads under the skin results may be perfect for you. Lifting offers the following benefits:

  • Natural-looking results with longevity of up to two years.
  • Instant yet subtle visible changes.
  • A youthful, natural look, reversing the mild to moderate signs of skin aging.
  • A solution without the need for long periods of downtime

If you are aged within your late forties to early sixties, facelift surgery will provide a more extreme result to reverse the signs of ageing. Patients younger than 45 with slight sagging in the face are more suitable for threads.

How is the jawline thread lift procedure done?

The improvements to your face with this jawline thread lift procedure are performed with temporary absorbable sutures. We use a certain number of threads to gently lift the skin, tightening the face with minimal discomfort. This process further benefits the skin by creating a healing response that encourages long-lasting increased collagen production. This helps the patient to maintain strong and supple skin, preventing excess skin and wrinkles from forming too early.

With local anaesthesia, our experts can quickly improve the face with a jawline lift in under 60 minutes. The treads are inserted deep under the skin of the face using fine needles which are not visible on the outer surface. This proven form of cosmetic surgery is a treatment that can provide a look that many patients would like to create an ideal, youthful aesthetic for the face.

The jawline thread lifting treatment creates a tightening of the face that can help subtly turn back the clock.

Will the new look of my face be permanent?

While the ageing process is inevitable, this treatment can slow it down. The facial threads inserted at our clinic will dissipate over time; however, they can easily be re-done after a few years to refresh your look thanks to the low-risk nature of the procedure.

Improving the skin of the face is one simple way to take your look to a new level, which can also be further improved by other treatments that focus on the eye areas. All of this is considered during your consultation, a time to assess your needs and map out a plan that will deliver successful results you can be proud of.

Frequently Asked Questions

Risks and complications of cosmetic surgery

These risks, while concerning, are generally rare and can be mitigated through careful planning, following pre- and post-operative care instructions, and working with qualified and experienced medical practitioners, like those at ICCM.  But it can still be beneficial to understand potential risks that can occur, so you can discuss these risks before proceeding with any treatment.

Scarring

Scarring is a common risk with any surgery that involves making incisions in the skin. While practitioners take care to place incisions in discreet areas and close them carefully to minimise scars, the body’s healing process varies from person to person. Some individuals may develop thicker, more noticeable scars, known as hypertrophic scars or keloids, which can be difficult to treat and may require additional procedures.

Bruising and Swelling

Bruising and swelling are common side effects of surgery as the body responds to tissue trauma. While these symptoms typically subside within a few weeks, severe bruising can cause discomfort and prolong recovery. In some cases, significant swelling might indicate underlying issues such as fluid accumulation or infection, requiring further medical attention.

Bleeding

Bleeding during surgery is controlled by the surgical team, but there is always a risk of excessive bleeding either during the procedure or postoperatively. This can lead to complications like hematomas, where blood pools under the skin, potentially requiring surgical drainage. Severe bleeding can also lead to shock, which is a medical emergency.

Infection

Infection is a risk whenever the skin is broken, as it provides a pathway for bacteria to enter the body. Surgical sites are particularly vulnerable, especially if the wound care instructions are not followed closely. Infections can range from minor skin infections to more serious, deep-tissue infections that might require antibiotics, drainage, or even additional surgery to resolve.

Pain

Pain is an expected part of recovery from any surgery, but its intensity and duration can vary. While most pain can be managed with prescribed medications, some patients may experience prolonged or severe pain, which could indicate complications such as nerve damage or infection. Chronic pain is a less common, but more serious, concern that might persist long after the typical recovery period.

Undesirable Cosmetic Outcome

An undesirable cosmetic outcome occurs when the results of the surgery do not meet the patient’s expectations, or the aesthetic goals outlined before the procedure. This could be due to asymmetry, unnatural appearance, or a failure to achieve the desired contour or shape. In some cases, additional procedures, known as revision surgeries, may be needed to correct these issues.

Nerve Damage

Nerve damage is a risk in many cosmetic procedures, especially those that involve cutting near nerves. This can lead to numbness, tingling, or even loss of sensation in the affected area. While some nerve damage may be temporary and improve over time, permanent nerve injury can result in lasting changes in sensation or function.

Seroma

A seroma is a pocket of clear fluid that can build up under the skin after surgery. It often occurs when the surgical area is not fully drained, leading to swelling and discomfort. Seromas are usually treated by draining the fluid with a needle, but if left untreated, they can increase the risk of infection or contribute to poor wound healing.

Anaesthetic Complications

Anaesthetic complications can arise from both general and local anaesthesia. These risks include allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and, in rare cases, more severe reactions such as malignant hyperthermia. Patients with pre-existing health conditions or those undergoing lengthy procedures are at a higher risk. Complications can range from temporary disorientation or nausea to more serious outcomes like heart attack or stroke.

Death

Death is the most severe and rare risk associated with cosmetic surgery. It can result from complications related to anaesthesia, excessive bleeding, severe infection, or an adverse reaction during the procedure. While the overall risk is low, it underscores the importance of a thorough preoperative assessment and choosing an experienced, qualified medical practitioner to minimise risks.
