The Best Non-Surgical Facelift – Are The Results Worth It?

Non-surgical facelift

Let’s talk about non-surgical facelifts. 

It used to be that if you wanted to improve your appearance with a cosmetic treatment there were only a few options available, and nearly all of them surgical. 

The procedures were extreme and you’d have to be very sure of your decision because the results would be permanent and the recovery time longer.

The good news is that today you have the choice of many non-surgical options, so you don’t have to resort to drastic surgery to reduce the signs of ageing.

A non-surgical facelift is proven to smooth out lines and wrinkles and improve your facial appearance by lifting tired-looking skin. 

If you’re feeling insecure or unhappy with your appearance then you might want to know what the best alternative is to combat the signs of ageing. 

By choosing a non-surgical facelift, you can easily make improvements and treat problem areas such as your cheeks, neck and jowls without disrupting your lifestyle or managing a long recovery time.

What Is A Non-Surgical Facelift?

A non-surgical facelift is a cosmetic procedure that reduces facial lines, dark circles, hollow cheeks and the appearance of jowls. Procedures usually involve dermal fillers, Botox injections or PDO Threads to lift your skin and give you a refreshed, youthful look.

Fillers, chemical skin peels and anti-wrinkle treatments are all considered to be effective non-surgical facelift solutions. Each offers individual benefits and outcomes, so make sure you find out all you can to make an informed decision. You can read one of our previous blogs about non-surgical treatments here.

There is always a great demand for the longer-lasting PDO Thread Lift because the non-surgical thread lift can treat several skin concerns in just one simple treatment. 

In simple terms, the thread lift smooths and lifts the skin on your face, neck or jowls by using a fine medical-grade thread to create a structure for your skin to rest on. As well as tightening your skin, threads also rejuvenate your face by increasing your body’s natural production of collagen.

Collagen production is essential for your skin to look plump and firm. Unfortunately, as you age, your collagen production slows right down. It is during this time that your skin will begin to sag and fine lines and wrinkles can start to appear.

So if you want a treatment that reduces the signs of ageing and actively encourages a more natural and youthful glow, then a thread lift is the perfect non-surgical facelift!

Do Non-Surgical Facelifts Work?

These treatments are very effective at targeting wrinkles, deep creases and loss of volume. They can also improve skin tone and texture, so you are left with much brighter and healthy-looking skin.

With so many non-invasive procedures available, you will find that some work better than others, so deciding on the best one for you will depend entirely on what outcome you are looking for. 

A thread lift is one of the most popular treatments, as it offers a long-lasting solution to many skin concerns and is pretty much painless.

If you want a natural look that allows movement and expression while providing noticeable lift to sagging skin, then the thread lift really is a strong contender as a solution.

What Results Can You Expect?

There are many benefits to a non-surgical facelift with very few downsides. The results can be seen instantly and there is little to no recovery time post-treatment. 

The thread lift provides very natural-looking results that subtly reduce your wrinkles and sagging skin. Post-treatment you’ll be left with tighter, firmer skin as well as a much more youthful appearance. 

The threads also contain hyaluronic acid which absorbs into your skin over time boosting the natural production of collagen post-treatment, and prolonging the anti-ageing results.

The results of your thread lift are one of the most long-lasting, however, they are not permanent. The results can last for up to 18 months or more. And should you be unhappy with anything post-treatment, it’s easily reversible, providing great peace of mind.

Read How I Improved My Lichen Sclerosus

Had a consultation with Elite yesterday, I must say I was a bit nervous, but Dr Shirin was so friendly and helpful.
I was given lots of advice and was given treatment options that were within my budget.
A few weeks after the P Shot I've really started to see a difference and have gained my confidence back.

Thank You!

Elite is an outstanding professional clinic with high standard treatments. All the staff members are friendly and offer you honest opinions when it comes to products and treatments. This is a welcoming clinic that I can 100% recommend. Treatments are spoken through and explained in detail, also aftercare. I have been going nearly a year now and am happy with all the treatments I’ve had, wouldn't go anywhere else. The Bocox treatment started to work within a few days, which I was surprised about. So glad I went to Elite for treatment.

Thank you Dr Shirin, the O Shot has really helped me with my Lichen Sclerosus. I'd heard about the treatment on the LS Facebook Groups and message a few people that had treatment with Dr Shirin. I was like many in the group who had run out of treatment options and using creams on a daily basis. I have to say a few months after treatment, I can see a real positive change and I'm hoping my LS will continue to improve. Dr Shirin did say that I might have to have a second treatment given how severe my case is.

Welcoming, reassuring, friendly, professional, high tech. I shall be back for more. I love the results of the Thread Lift I had.

Hi, Alex here,Just had my Lichen treatment today with Dr Shirin,The whole team at elite are very friendly, comforting and understanding, and did everything they could to give me a wonderful and welcoming experience. They are all so kind, friendly and knowledgeable, world experts at what they do. I am lucky to have them near London. They are also super responsive on the phone and email, so I know they care about thier patients, and I'm very well taken care of, (as with other clinics I have been to, its often difficult to get them to respond to questions), but this clinic is the most responsive I have ever seen!This is a beautiful and wonderful place and I highly recommend it, and I will be recommending it to all my friends as well. They definitely deserve the super high reviews they are getting, so I'm happy to add another one! A Big thank you from me and my family for all you have done for us during this journey!

Yesterday I had a 'body sculpt' session, to help lymphatic drainage. I was zipped into a suit up to my waist. This massaged and lightly squeezed my feet, ankles, calves, thighs and abdomen. I was breathing oxygen rich air via nasal tubes. It was very relaxing and I slept really well last night. Thank you Elite Aesthetics.
