Thread Lift in Bali
Sagging skin and loss of facial contour are natural parts of aging, but they no longer require surgery to address. A thread lift in Bali at Upscale Bali offers immediate lifting and tightening results using dissolvable threads, with no incisions, no general anesthesia, and minimal recovery time.
What Is a Thread Lift?
A thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine, dissolvable sutures to physically lift and reposition sagging skin. The threads are inserted just beneath the skin’s surface using a thin needle or cannula. Once in place, they are gently pulled to lift the skin and anchor it in a higher position. As the threads dissolve over time, they stimulate collagen production, further improving skin firmness and texture.
How the Procedure Works
- A topical or local anesthesia is applied to the treatment area for comfort.
- Fine threads are inserted beneath the skin using a thin cannula.
- The threads are gently tensioned to lift and reposition the skin.
- The procedure takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes.
- No cuts, stitches, or general anesthesia are required.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?
Thread lifts work best for patients aged 35 to 55 with mild to moderate skin laxity who want to address early signs of sagging without committing to surgery. Patients with good overall skin quality who are beginning to notice changes in facial contour, jowl formation, or drooping brows will see the most benefit.
Before treatment, it is important to:
- Avoid vitamin E supplements and blood-thinning medications for one week before and after the procedure.
- Disclose any prior treatments or current medications to your doctor during the consultation.
- Arrange a pre-treatment consultation to confirm suitability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a thread lift last?
The lifting effect of a thread lift typically lasts between 12 and 18 months. The collagen stimulation triggered by the dissolving threads continues to benefit the skin for up to two years in some patients. The duration varies depending on the type of threads used, the area treated, and individual skin characteristics.
Is a thread lift painful?
Local anesthesia is applied before the procedure, so pain during the treatment is minimal. Some patients experience mild soreness or tightness in the treated area for a few days afterward. This discomfort is temporary and manageable with standard pain relief if needed.
What is the recovery time after a thread lift?
Most patients return to their daily activities within one to three days. Some swelling or bruising may be present for up to a week. Strenuous exercise, sleeping face-down, and facial massages should be avoided for approximately two weeks after the procedure.
Who is not a good candidate for a thread lift?
Thread lifts are not recommended for patients with severe skin laxity, as surgical options would produce better results in such cases. Patients with active skin infections, autoimmune conditions, or those who are pregnant should also avoid this treatment. A consultation with our doctor will confirm your suitability.
Can a thread lift be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Thread lifts are commonly combined with botox, dermal fillers, or skin booster injections to achieve more comprehensive rejuvenation. Your doctor at Upscale Bali will recommend the most effective combination based on your specific concerns and goals.
