Feather Lift
For those individuals who are looking for an effective way to enhance their facial features for a smoother, younger appearance, a Feather Lift may be just what you need. A face lift using the Feather Lift method is a minimally invasive surgical treatment that helps men and women to significantly improve the appearance of their face without experiencing the drawbacks that are associated with traditional face lifts. When compared to traditional face lifts, Feather Lifts provide patients with no scarring, minimal discomfort and a quick recovery with little downtime. In addition, there is less risk involved because patients do not need to be put under general anesthesia.
A Feather Lift thread lift is a procedure that utilizes nonabsorbent threads to lift sagging skin in the facial area. Often called the lunchtime face lift because its takes less than an hour to perform, clear threads with barbs on the ends are inserted under the skin to gently lift even moderately sagging skin and muscle. The results are compared to those of a mini facelift and are immediate with minimal scarring, minimal anesthesia and minimal downtime. If used in conjunction with BOTOX® and dermal fillers an excellent result can be achieved with a quick recovery time.
Good candidates for this treatment are generally from 40 to 70 years old and are currently experiencing facial wrinkles in conjunction with drooping facial and neck skin. It has been reported Feather Lift thread lifts can last up to 5 years. The cost is usually per thread, $300-$350 and a minimum of 4 threads are needed, although reports reveal an average of 12-14 threads are generally used. While this can lift the sagging skin, thread lifts will not give the dramatic results seen by a traditional face lift.
