Thread Lifts in Portland & Lake Oswego
At Burgess Plastic Surgery and MedSpa in Lake Oswego, we offer non-surgical thread lifts to help lift, tighten, and rejuvenate your skin without the need for surgery. Our two advanced options, NovaThreads and Silhouette InstaLift, provide a natural-looking lift and stimulate collagen production without the commitment of surgery.
How Do Thread Lifts Work?
Thread lifts use biodegradable sutures placed under the skin to create an immediate lifting effect while stimulating collagen production for long-term rejuvenation. As the body naturally absorbs the threads over time, they encourage firmer, tighter skin while improving elasticity and texture.
The Thread Lift Process:
Consultation – We assess your concerns and goals to determine the best thread type for you.
Numbing & Placement – A local anesthetic is applied, and the threads are carefully inserted under the skin.
Instant Lift – The threads provide an immediate lifting effect while supporting long-term collagen production.
Natural Absorption – Over the next few months, the threads dissolve, leaving behind firmer, more youthful skin.
The entire procedure takes about 30–60 minutes, making it a quick and effective lunch-break treatment with minimal downtime.
What Areas Can Thread Lift Treat?
Patients use threads to lift and contour areas like:
- Midface and cheeks
- Jowls
- Jawline
- Lower face
