  • Is there any downtime for the procedure?
    Patients should not require any downtime after the procedure. After the procedure, you will experience some local swelling and numbness. The swelling should subside after a few days. Patients are free to wear makeup after the procedure. Some patients choose to take time off after the treatment, but you should be able to return to work the same day if that is necessary.
  • Is There a Risk of Blindness After the Nose Thread Lift Treatment? And how is it different from Dermal Fillers?
    The risk of causing blindness from undergoing a nose thread lift treatment is almost non-existent – unlike dermal filler treatment. Dermal fillers have been used to perform nose augmentation for many years. Even though with many years of experience, some practitioners prefer not to perform nose filler treatment because of the risk of vascular complications such as skin necrosis and even blindness caused by fillers. We do not offer this service at Symetry Aesthetics. On the other hand, nose thread lift using PDO threads are inserted using blunt cannulas to achieve the desired height and projection of the nose by building a scaffold using the threads. Results of nose thread lift are impressive and there is virtually no risk of blindness.
  • Are Nose Threads Safe?
    The threads that we use for nose thread lift are made of polydioxanone (PDO). PDO is a synthetic absorbable thread that surgeons use to stitch wounds after a surgery. It is completely safe and bio-compatible with the human body.
  • Who is generally suitable for Nose Threads?
    Nose Threads is a well-tolerated procedure, most men and women in their 20s to 60s or even beyond may be suited to a thread lift. It is viewed as particularly suitable for people who cannot or do not want to have a permanent procedure and are looking for a non-invasive, fast and convenient procedure.
  • How Many Sessions Are Needed to See Result?
    One treatment is enough to see visible result. With the correct type of threads used and correct placement of the threads, you should be able to see good result after one treatment. The threads will remain in the nose for 6 months. When they dissolve, the nose will remain in its lifted position for another 8 to 12 months because of the stimulation of collagen from the threads. If repeated regularly, you may see result lasting for up to 24 months or even longer, depending on individual.
  • What improvements can I see in Nose Thread Lift?
    Patients who have various nose concerns can experience beneficial, enhanced results from a nose thread lift, creating improvements such as: Slimming wide nostrils Smoothing out a nasal hump Projecting the nasal tip Lifting the nose tip Filling depressions in nasal walls Correcting a crooked nose due to surgery or trauma Preventing nasal obstruction by reducing nasal passage collapse
  • What is a Nose Thread lift?
    Also known as a ‘lunchtime nose job’, the nose thread lift is a treatment that can be completed in under 60 minutes. Because of the minimal downtime, patients can resume their daily activities immediately after. Threads are inserted gently into the soft tissue of the areas to be lifted and a local anaesthetic is used to calm the area and ensure a comfortable experience. The absorbable threads dissolve within 18-24 months, but before they dissolve they create a support scaffolding of collagen for the skin that supports and lifts the skin for many years to come.
