The Advanced Contour Threads or “Adjustable Facelift” has been deemed the most effective and longest lasting minimally invasive technique on the market. Similar to the procedure of the already existent Contour Threadlift, the Adjustable Facelift uses newer threads with barbs that are inserted into small holes (not incisions) in the hairline. The threads are 30 percent stronger than their predecessor. They cling onto the muscle and the skin that is then pulled over a period of three days to maximize the lift even after swelling. The Adjustable Lift has significantly less downtime than a traditional facelift and unlike the original Contour Thread lift, no scarring or obvious knots on the sides of the face.
According to Dr. Nicolette Picerno, a member of Faces First Center for Cosmetic Surgery, “I like the Adjustable Facelift because it gives me the flexibility to go in and fine tune the level of lifting as the patient heals. This makes the procedure so much more effective and gives a much better result than the original Contour Threadlift (TM). What’s more is that it is very minimally invasive, which means patients get a long lasting result without harsh surgery and long downtimes.”
Cost for the Adjustable Facelift ranges from $2,200 to $9,000, depending on the level of lifting needed. It takes anywhere from 45 minutes to three hours in the doctor’s office and can be completed under local anesthesia, not general, contributing to the low risks of the procedure.
The Adjustable Facelift is not recommended for patients with a loss of elasticity in their skin or full round faces. The results of the procedure last from three to five years and can be preformed on a patient multiple times.
