What are the steps of the thread lift?

Thread lift includes the following procedures:

• Anesthesia
  A thread lift is done under local anesthesia which minimizes your discomfort during the procedure.
• Lifting process
  The doctor tightens the sagging skin by stitching it up using temporary sutures. The thread can also contribute to fight aging by urging the body to direct a large amount of collagen to the stitched areas, which promotes the healing process and maintain the skin strong and youthful.

• Take the rest of the operation day off.
