A Thread Lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure where absorbable medical-grade threads are placed beneath the skin to lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production. Unlike surgery, this treatment involves no cuts, no general anesthesia, and very minimal recovery time.

At Pratap Hospital, our thread lifts include:

  • Face Lift (Non-Surgical Facelift)

  • Midface & Cheek Lift

  • Jawline Contouring Threads

  • Neck Lift Threads

  • Brow Lift Threads

  • Fox Eye / Cat Eye Thread Lift

  • Under-Eye Tightening Threads

  • Nasolabial Fold Improvement

  • Full Face Rejuvenation

The treatment instantly lifts loose skin while naturally improving elasticity and firmness over time.

 

A Thread Lift uses biocompatible and absorbable threads inserted under the skin to gently reposition tissues and enhance facial support.

Types of Threads Used
