About 30–60 minutes depending on the number and area of threads
Recovery / Downtime
Swelling, bruising, tenderness or temporary asymmetry may occur.
Number of Sessions
Usually performed as a planned procedure; repeat treatment depends on individual response.
Results Timeline
Some lifting may be visible immediately, while final appearance changes as swelling settles and tissue healing progresses.

Important Precautions
Discuss bleeding risk, medications, infection, autoimmune conditions and previous thread or facial procedures with the clinician.
