What is a Brow Thread Lift?
A Brow Thread Lift, also known as a non-surgical brow lift, is a minimally invasive procedure designed to elevate the eyebrows and open up the eye area for a more refreshed, youthful appearance. This treatment enhances the natural arch of the brows and reduces sagging skin, creating a lifted and more defined look without the need for surgery.
Using PDO (polydioxanone) threads, the procedure subtly lifts the brow tissue while stimulating collagen production for long-lasting rejuvenation.
Unlike a traditional brow lift, a Brow Thread Lift offers a gentle yet noticeable enhancement with minimal downtime, making it a popular option for those seeking a subtle lift and natural results.
Who is a Brow Thread Lift Suitable For?
A Brow Thread Lift is ideal for individuals experiencing:
• Drooping or sagging brows
• Loss of eyebrow arch definition
• Forehead wrinkles or fine lines
• Mild to moderate skin laxity in the upper face
• Desire for a lifted, more youthful brow shape
• Interest in a non-surgical alternative to a traditional brow lift

Brow Thread Lift FAQs
What are PDO Threads?
A: PDO threads are a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment that involves the use of tiny threads made of a biodegradable material called Polydioxanone (PDO). These threads are inserted under the skin using a fine needle or cannula. They are then gently pulled to lift and tighten sagging skin, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin texture and tone. Over time, the threads dissolve naturally and stimulate the production of collagen, resulting in further skin rejuvenation. They are a safe and effective alternative to surgical facelifts and can be used to treat various areas of the face and body. The results typically last for 12-18 months. At Hampstead Aesthetics, we offer a range of treatments to help you achieve your desired look.
Scientific Basis of PDO Thread Lift
-
Collagen Stimulation: Once inserted, the threads stimulate collagen production.
-
Vital Protein: Collagen maintains skin's structure and elasticity.
-
Improvement: Enhances skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance.
-
Absorption: Threads are absorbed, leaving new collagen scaffolding.
Mechanism of Action
-
Insertion: Threads placed in the subdermal layer with fine needles.
-
Anchoring: Threads anchor and lift skin immediately.
-
Healing: Stimulates the natural healing process.
-
Collagen/Elastin: Increases collagen and elastin production.
-
Results: Improved skin elasticity, texture, and rejuvenation.

What are the features of MINT™ PDO Threads?
MINT™ PDO threads utilise innovative patented technology with barbs configured in a 360-degree helical pattern, offering superior strength and durability. This design allows the threads to anchor securely within the skin, providing immediate lifting and contouring effects.
The PDO (Polydioxanone) material is biocompatible and safely absorbed by the body, promoting collagen production as it dissolves. This collagen stimulation enhances skin texture, firmness, and elasticity, delivering long-lasting results with minimal pain and trauma. The minimally invasive procedure typically requires only 30-45 minutes, making it an efficient alternative to traditional surgical facelifts.
How long do Brow Threads last?
The length of time that threads last depends on several factors, such as the patient's age, skin condition, and lifestyle. Generally, PDO Threads can last anywhere from 9 months to 2 years, depending on the individual case. At Hampstead Aesthetics, our experienced practitioners will assess your skin and recommend the best treatment plan for you, including the appropriate number and type of threads to use.
Are Brow Threads safe?
PDO threads are considered a safe and effective treatment when performed by a trained and licensed professional. Like any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects that may occur, such as bruising, swelling, infection, or thread migration. However, these risks can be minimised with proper pre- and post-treatment care. Our experienced team will thoroughly assess your candidacy for PDO threads and provide you with all the necessary information to make an informed decision about your treatment.

Can you smile after a Brow Threadlift ?
Yes, you can smile after treatment. While some patients may experience slight swelling or bruising, this typically subsides within a few days. After the treatment, you can continue to smile and express your emotions as normal.
How much does a thread lift cost ?
The Threadlift procedure can range from £800 -£3000. The cost will depend on how many threads are needed to get the desired result. For a full Face Threadlift the average cost is £1800. Using MINT PDO Threads - we tend to use x4 Threads each side
Is a Brow thread lift painful ?
The treatment is generally minimally painful, with local anaesthesia or numbing cream used to reduce discomfort during the procedure. Patients often feel some pressure or tugging as the threads are inserted. Afterward, mild discomfort, soreness, and tightness are common, along with some swelling and bruising. These symptoms typically subside within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol and cold compresses (ice packs ) can help manage any post-procedure discomfort. Individual experiences may vary based on pain tolerance and treatment area .
What's the difference between Silhouette soft vs. PDO Thread Lift ?
The key differences between the 2 products..
Material: Silhouette Soft uses PLLA (poly-l-lactic acid), while PDO Thread Lift uses PDO (polydioxanone).
Mechanism: Silhouette Soft threads have cones for anchoring and lifting, while polydioxanone threads rely on a network of barbs or smooth threads for lifting and collagen stimulation.
Longevity: Silhouette Soft generally offers longer-lasting results (18-24 months) compared to polydioxanone threads (12-18 months).
Application Areas: While both can lift and contour, Silhouette Soft is particularly effective for mid-face and neck lifting, whereas PDO offers more versatility for various facial and body areas. Both are biocompatible, natural materials and are FDA approved.
What are the common areas for threadlift treatment ?
Cheek and Midface Lift: Restore volume and lift the midface, enhancing natural contours for a youthful look.
Jawline and Neck Lift: Lift and smooth sagging skin, defining the jawline and tightening the neck for a structured appearance.
Brow Lift and Eyelid Rejuvenation: Achieve a subtle brow lift and rejuvenate the eye area, reducing droopy eyelids and refreshing the look.
Tear Trough and Under-Eye Rejuvenation: Address under-eye hollows and dark circles, lifting and supporting the delicate under-eye area.

Marionette Lines and Chin Contouring: Reduce lines from the mouth to the chin and improve chin definition, enhancing facial contours.
Body Contouring: Lift and tighten sagging skin on the arms, abdomen, and thighs, improving body contours.
What is the ideal patient for a Brow thread lift?
The ideal candidate is generally aged 30-55 with mild to moderate skin laxity, in good health, and a non-smoker. They should have realistic expectations and no active skin conditions in the treatment area. This minimally invasive procedure suits those seeking subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation without surgery.

What other treatments compliment PDO Thread Lift?
PDO Thread Lift can be combined with several other aesthetic treatments to enhance and maintain natural-looking results. At Hampstead Aesthetics, popular complementary treatments include:
Dermal Fillers – to restore lost volume in areas like the cheeks, jawline, tear trough and lips for a more youthful contour.
Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox®) – to relax dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet, which threads do not address.
Skin Boosters – to improve skin hydration, texture, and elasticity, helping to maintain the quality of the skin following a lift.
Polynucleotides (PN/PRP) – regenerative treatments that stimulate collagen production and improve skin health, working well alongside threads.
Microneedling with Exosomes – to encourage collagen and elastin production, helping with fine lines and overall skin texture.
During your consultation, we can recommend a personalised treatment plan based on your skin condition and goals.

What is the difference between a Brow Thread Lift and a surgical brow lift?
A Brow Thread Lift is a non-surgical treatment using dissolvable PDO threads to gently lift and reposition the brows, creating a more open and refreshed eye area. It gives a subtle, natural-looking result with minimal downtime. On the other hand, a surgical brow lift involves incisions and lifting of the forehead tissue, offering a more dramatic and long-term effect.
Are you considering enhancing your Brow profile? We invite you to schedule a relaxed consultation to discuss your options with Dr Chike.
Can a Brow Thread Lift fix drooping or hooded brows?
Yes, it can give a subtle lift to brows that have started to droop, helping open up the eye area and reduce heaviness. Although it may not serve as a replacement for surgery in more complex cases, it presents a viable alternative for individuals seeking a rejuvenated appearance without undergoing surgery.
Let’s assess your brow position and see what’s possible – book a personalised consultation today.
Will I have visible scars from a Brow Thread Lift?
No visible scarring is expected. The threads are inserted through tiny entry points, often hidden in the hairline or just above the brow. These heal quickly and don’t leave marks. You might notice mild swelling or bruising for a few days, but the pain fades fast.
Our technique is discreet and precise — book a consultation to learn more about what to expect.
How soon after a Brow Thread Lift can I wear makeup or skincare?
We recommend avoiding makeup and active skincare around the brow and forehead area for at least 48 hours. The delay allows time for the tiny entry points to heal properly and reduces the risk of irritation or infection. Thereafter, you can gently return to your usual routine; just avoid heavy rubbing.
What should I avoid after a Brow Thread Lift?
To protect your results and avoid any complications, we recommend avoiding the following for about a week:
• Excessive facial expressions (like frowning or raising eyebrows)
• Rubbing or massaging the forehead
• Sleeping face-down
• Alcohol, smoking, and strenuous workouts
• Saunas or steam rooms
These can all affect the positioning of the threads.
