Surgical intervention in the form of a facelift under general anaesthetic can be a solution for the right candidate. However, for some people the expense and associated downtime of the procedure means it’s not right for them. There are alternatives to a surgical facelift but patients should be aware that in some instances where skin is very loose and sagging is pronounced the only option to give a good aesthetic result may indeed be a surgical facelift. However, if intervention is reasonably early then we can offer non-surgical solutions that produce good results with little to no downtime.

PDO Suspension Threads are an alternative option for improving the appearance of the jawline. This procedure can stimulate new collagen and elastin in the skin, resulting in visible tightening of the jawline with immediate effect. Pain levels should be mild and a local anaesthetic can be given if required. PDO Suspension Threads take around an hour to administer and downtime is just 24 hours. Following the initial treatment, a follow-up will be required two to four weeks later.
