What is Spring Threads?

Spring Thread® is an effective thread lift to restore the oval of the face: vertical lift, immediate effect, improved results over time and long lasting.

This French aesthetic innovation is patented and repositions tissue while retaining natural facial expressions.

Advantages of Spring Thread®

  • Minimally invasive – No large incisions or general anaesthesia required.
  • Immediate lifting effect – Noticeable results right after the procedure.
  • Stimulates collagen production – Encourages natural skin rejuvenation over time.
  • Short recovery time – Most patients resume normal activities within a few days.
  • Long-lasting results – Effects typically last up to 5 years, depending on individual factors.

PLEASE BE AWARE BEFORE THE TREATMENT:

It’s vital to have a consultation before the procedure.

The best candidates for a thread lifting are aged 35 to 55 and have relatively good skin tone with a little sagging. If there is too much loose skin then surgery may be the best option. There are many different types of threads for lifting available.

Spring Thread is suitable for people:

  • Are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity in the face, jawline, or neck.
  • Prefer a non-surgical alternative to a traditional facelift.
  • Have realistic expectations about the results.
  • Are in good general health and do not have contraindications such as severe skin conditions, active infections, or blood clotting disorders.

The Procedure and Aftercare

Tissue tends to become slacker with age. Fatty tissue migrates downwards: the cheeks, temples, chin, nose and eye contour lose their volume. This is when bitterness folds and lines at the corners of the mouth appear.

By enabling tissue to be lifted and reshaped vertically, Spring Thread® tensor threads are considered as a minimally invasive alternative to facelift surgery. They are indicated in the treatment of mild to moderate ptoses. These threads with cogs are inserted into the subcutaneous fatty tissue to correct its slackness. In most cases, the procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, without hospitalisation.

The effects last for at least 3 to 5 years, and continue to improve in the months following the treatment.

I’m absolutely delighted with my results! From the initial consultation, Nurse Jane took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood the different options available. I really appreciated how she listened to what I wanted and recommended the treatment that was best suited to me. I felt completely comfortable and in very safe hands throughout. The results are fantastic - subtle, natural and exactly what I was hoping for. I’m so pleased and would highly recommend Nurse Jane to anyone considering a treatment.

Having never had any treatments before, I had NeoGen and Botox over the last few months. Jane was amazing! I was quite nervous but she really put me at ease and she explains everything really well. Jane recommended a skincare treatment which has honestly been life changing! I'm incredibly happy with the results and will definitely be back soon!

I would just like to share after researching lots and lots regarding facial laser and other non surgical treatments. I found Dr Joe to be remarkably honest with a thorough listening to assessment. He was genuinely interested in my story, concerns and opinions. It wasn’t about any hard sell at all. I felt completely at ease and felt I could at last trust someone. So far I have had one Neogen treatment and two Derma V treatments. The aftercare is superb. And can always get a response to any query or concerns. I sincerely and wholly recommend Medfacials to anyone that has been disillusioned with the beauty industry. Medfacials is totally trustworthy 💯 Wendy
