A Non-Surgical Facelift
What is a thread lift?
Thread lift, also known as a thread facelift or suture lift, is an innovative non-surgical procedure that uses specially designed threads to lift and tighten sagging skin. At Ewà Medical Aesthetics in Calgary, we use Silhouette InstaLift threads. These threads use micro-suspension technology to deliver micro cones of dissolvable glycolide/L-lactide (PLGA) to the treatment area, which are safely absorbed by the body over time.
The procedure works in two ways:
Immediate Lifting: The threads mechanically lift and reposition sagging skin.
Collagen Stimulation: Over time, the threads stimulate your body's collagen production, leading to improved skin quality and texture.
Subtle Yet Impactful
What is the thread lift procedure like?
To begin the journey to a tighter, more lifted facial appearance with our thread lift Calgary patients will meet with our team at Ewà Medical Aesthetics for a comprehensive consultation. We will assess your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and create a personalized treatment plan.
The InstaLift procedure offers a minimally invasive and effective alternative to traditional facelifts. With minimal downtime, it provides immediate lifting results while also stimulating collagen production for ongoing improvements. The entire process usually takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the areas treated.
The procedure delivers natural-looking results, is customizable to target specific areas, and can be combined with other treatments for comprehensive rejuvenation. Thread lifts boost confidence with subtle yet noticeable improvements and offers a shorter recovery time compared to surgical options. Results typically last 1-3 years, with the potential for maintenance treatments to prolong the effects. You'll be able to see immediate lifting effects, with results continuing to improve over the following weeks as collagen production increases.

Enhance Your Facial Features
Thread Lift Recovery
Thread lift offers a significant advantage with its minimal downtime. Following the procedure, most patients can resume their normal activities within 24-48 hours. It's recommended to avoid strenuous exercise for 1-2 weeks and to sleep with your head elevated for the first few nights. To allow for optimal healing, avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for two weeks. While temporary swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur, they generally resolve quickly. It's also important to postpone dental procedures for 2-3 weeks after the treatment.
A Refreshed Appearance Emerges
Thread Lift Results
You'll notice an immediate lifting effect right after the procedure. However, the final results will continue to improve over the next few months as collagen production increases and the threads settle into place.
Results from thread lift typically last 1-3 years, depending on individual factors and the type of threads used. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong and enhance the effects.
