ThreadLift (thread face lift) is a revolutionary, non-surgical, non-invasive facelift procedure that uses fine surgical threads to lift the droopy areas of the brow, cheeks, jowls and neck. There are two components to thread face lift that result in the amazing non-surgical lift effects. In the first part of ThreadLift, sutures are used to loop around or "lasso" fixation points on the droopy brow, cheek, jowl and neck. The second part of the ThreadLift provides additional lift and shaping and uses tiny "anchored" prolene threads, which are normal surgical sutures modified with tiny "barbs" on them. The anchored threads are inserted with a hollow needle into the deep fat of the droopy facial elements, allowing the physician to lift, sculpt and shape the brow, cheeks and jowls. At the completion of the procedure, the threads are cut short so as to be completly undetectable. The lift effects are immediate and the risk and recovery minimal. One of the amazing features of the ThreadLift is its adjustable lift feature. As you continue to age, you may return to have the ThreadLift adjusted or tightened in any, or all of the regions with essentially no downtime! The results of the ThreadLift are immediate. There is a noticeable elevation and contour shaping of the brow, cheek, jowl and neck. The degree of this non-surgical lift delivers much of what might be achieved with a traditional surgical facelift without significant downtime. Will anyone be able to see or feel the threads?
This is one of the most common questions patients ask about ThreadLift. The answer is no. Once the tenderness from the treatment subsides, patients are never aware of the threads. Done without complication, the ThreadLift sutures cannot be seen or felt.

Interesting plastic surgery and health facts about San Francisco
San Francisco is a cultural wonderland where custom, tradition and history are preserved, celebrated and shared. Surrounded on three sides by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, the city’s compact 46 square miles crowd the tip of the peninsula. Sixteen rivers flow from outer California into the San Francisco Bay, where boaters, kayakers, and fishermen find no shortage of enjoyable aquatic activity.
Almost everyone who comes to visit spends a little time at Fisherman's Wharf, where quaint waterfront marketplaces include The Anchorage, The Cannery, Ghirardelli Square and PIER 39, and the famous fish market. Another great spot to visit, is Ocean Beach on the western edge of town. To the north, across the Golden Gate Bridge, lies Marin County, home to the charming Mediterranean village of Sausalito and the towns of Larkspur and Tiburon. Just 17 miles north is San Rafael, home to the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Marin Civic Center, and Mt. Tamalpais State Park, full of those notoriously large redwood trees.
The East Bay is the home of communities like Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda where you will find Jack London Square, Lake Merritt, the famously liberal University of California at Berkeley, Joe DiMaggio's hometown of Martinez, and the tranquil communities of Benicia and Vallejo. The nearby wineries in Dublin, Livermore and Pleasanton make this area a destination for wine lovers. To the south along the Highway 1 coastline lies Pacifica, Half Moon Bay and Princeton-by-the-Sea, perfect for nature or romantic getaways.
