Thread Lift in San Antonio, TX
Botox® is one of the most popular treatments for softening lines on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. Treatments are quick, require little to no downtime, and results look natural when placed by experienced injectors.
What Is a Thread Lift?
A thread lift uses medical-grade dissolvable sutures to reposition sagging skin and stimulate collagen. These threads are carefully placed under the skin to lift areas such as the cheeks, jawline, and neck. Over time, the threads dissolve naturally while collagen continues to firm and support the skin.
How a Thread Lift Works
Botox® is injected into specific facial muscles using a fine needle. It temporarily blocks the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions, softening lines such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles. Results typically appear within a few days and last about 3-4 months.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Thread Lift?
A thread lift is best for healthy adults with mild to moderate skin laxity who want noticeable lifting without surgery. It may not be suitable for clients with very thin skin, significant sagging, or certain medical conditions. A consultation is needed to confirm candidacy.
What to Expect During Treatment
A Botox® appointment usually takes 15 to 30 minutes. Your injector will mark the treatment areas and use a fine needle for precise placement. Discomfort is minimal, and you can return to normal activities right away. Results start to appear within a few days and reach their peak at about two weeks.

How Long Do Thread Lift Results Last?
Most clients enjoy results for 12 to 18 months. Collagen stimulation provides ongoing improvements even after the threads dissolve. Maintenance treatments every 1 to 2 years help extend results.Most clients notice initial improvements within a few weeks. Because collagen remodeling takes time, results continue to improve over several months. A series of 3 to 4 treatments provides optimal results, and maintenance sessions can prolong the benefits for 12 to 18 months or more.
What Makes a Thread Lift Different From a Facelift?
A surgical facelift removes excess skin and provides dramatic results, but requires downtime and recovery. A thread lift offers a more subtle, natural lift with little to no downtime. It is ideal for clients who want rejuvenation without surgery.
