The non-surgical spiral facelift is a minimally invasive procedure using absorbable threads placed under the skin. The threads are absorbed by the body over a period of months.
A consultation is required to determine whether the procedure may be appropriate for you. Your concerns, relevant medical history, the available options and alternatives, the potential risks, the expected recovery and the limitations are discussed before anything is decided.
Risks and recovery
This is a medical procedure and it carries risks. These include pain, bruising, swelling, bleeding, infection, thread migration or extrusion, visible or palpable threads, dimpling or puckering of the skin, asymmetry, changes in sensation and nerve injury.
Threads are absorbed over time and the effect is not permanent. Responses vary between individuals and a result is not guaranteed. Recovery time differs from person to person and is discussed with you before treatment.
