Thread Lift – Minimally Invasive

Thread lifting at Estetické centrum Komfort in Jihlava is a minimally invasive facial and body contouring procedure in which fine medical-grade threads are inserted subcutaneously via a thin needle, physically lifting sagging tissue while simultaneously stimulating the body's own collagen production around the thread. Local anaesthetic cream eliminates discomfort during the procedure. Results are visible immediately, with progressive improvement over 3–6 months as collagen builds around the threads. The treatment targets the face, neck, décolletage, arms, abdomen and thighs.

Thread lifting at Asklepion – Estetické centrum Komfort offers a surgical-free answer to facial and body sagging that sits between injectable fillers and facelift surgery in terms of degree of correction. Polydioxanone (PDO) or similar absorbable monofilament or barbed threads are inserted into the subcutaneous tissue through tiny entry points made with a fine needle — no incisions, no general anaesthesia and no hospital stay. How threads work: The threads provide immediate mechanical lift by anchoring to adjacent tissue and pulling it upward. Over the following 3–6 months, the body's wound-healing response deposits new collagen around each thread filament. As the threads gradually dissolve (over 6–12 months), the newly formed collagen scaffold maintains much of the lifting effect. The net result is both an immediate and a longer-term improvement in skin laxity. Consultation: A free consultation is offered before any commitment. The physician assesses skin laxity, tissue quality and the number of threads required to achieve the patient's goals. The complexity and number of threads determines the final price. Pre-treatment: Anaesthetic cream is applied and covered with an occlusive dressing 30 minutes before the procedure. The skin is disinfected with antiseptic solution. The physician maps the entry and exit points for each thread using surgical markings. During the session: Fine blunt-tipped needles or cannulas carry the threads to the target plane. Barbed threads grip the tissue on retraction; smooth threads stimulate collagen evenly along their length. The physician may place 10–40+ threads depending on the area and degree of laxity. The total treatment time is 45–90 minutes. Areas treated at ECK: Forehead, brow and temporal region, midface and cheeks, nasolabial folds, mouth corners and jowls, neck, décolletage, under-chin and submandibular area, breast sagging, abdomen, upper arms, hands, buttocks and thighs. Results: Visible immediately after insertion; full effect at 3–6 months as collagen builds. Duration: 12–24 months for most thread types, depending on the product, area and individual metabolism. Recovery: The vast majority of patients return to normal daily activities the same day. Mild swelling, bruising or puckering at entry points resolves within 3–7 days. Avoid extreme facial movements, vigorous massage and sauna for 2 weeks. Contraindications: Active infection, autoimmune conditions, blood-thinning medication, pregnancy and unrealistic expectations of facelift-level correction.
