We'll start by administering a local anaesthetic to ensure the patient is comfortable. The procedure involves the insertion of threads under the skin via very fine needles. Using these threads, your cosmetic surgeon will create miniscule stitches to pull back areas of your face, creating a subtle lifting and tightening effect.
The body responds to this by producing collagen - its normal healing response. Collagen supports supple, healthy skin. Over time, the threads will break down and repeat treatment will be required to maintain the effect.
