Cost
A thread lift is a surgical procedure that uses sutures to lift the skin. It can be performed on several body areas, including the breasts and arms, as well as on sagging knees. It costs between $300 and $4,500, depending on the surgeon’s experience and expertise. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the national average physician fee for thread lifts was $2,443 in 2006. However, costs are likely to vary depending on the surgeon and the body part being treated.
Recovery time
Although a thread lift is less invasive than a traditional facelift, recovery time can vary from two to three days. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and you should expect at least two days of downtime. While a thread lift does not provide the same results as a traditional facelift, it is ideal for patients who do not want a full surgical procedure. Plus, it is much less expensive than a traditional facelift.
