A nose thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that has gained popularity as a non-surgical alternative to traditional rhinoplasty. It offers a subtle yet effective way to reshape and contour the nose without the need for surgery, providing immediate results with minimal recovery time. The procedure involves the use of dissolvable threads that are inserted under the skin to lift and support the nasal structure, giving the nose a more defined and elevated appearance.
At Westwood Clinic, we specialize in nose thread lifts, offering our clients a safe and efficient way to enhance their facial features. Whether you’re looking to refine the shape of your nose, improve symmetry, or achieve a more youthful appearance, a nose thread lift can deliver the results you desire.
A nose thread lift involves the insertion of fine, dissolvable threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) into the nose. These threads are strategically placed to lift and support the nasal tissues, creating a more defined nasal bridge or tip. The threads stimulate collagen production around the area, which helps to maintain the lifted effect and enhances the overall structure of the nose over time. The entire procedure typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia, making it a quick and relatively painless experience.

One of the main advantages of a nose thread lift over traditional rhinoplasty is that it is non-surgical, meaning there is no need for incisions, general anesthesia, or a lengthy recovery period. This makes the procedure a great option for those who want to avoid the risks associated with surgery. Additionally, the results of a nose thread lift are immediate, allowing patients to see the enhancement right away. The procedure is also reversible and can be adjusted if needed, giving patients more control over the final outcome.

Ideal Candidates for a Nose Thread Lift
A nose thread lift is suitable for individuals who are looking to make subtle changes to the shape and contour of their nose. It is ideal for those who have a flat or low nasal bridge, a drooping nasal tip, or asymmetry that they would like to correct. However, it is important to note that a nose thread lift is not designed to correct major structural issues or significantly alter the size of the nose. Candidates should have realistic expectations and be in good overall health to ensure the best results.
The results of a nose thread lift are immediate, with the nose appearing more lifted and defined right after the procedure. Over the following weeks, the threads stimulate collagen production, which further enhances the results. On average, the effects of a nose thread lift can last between 12 to 18 months, depending on factors such as the type of threads used, the patient’s skin type, and how well they follow aftercare instructions. After this period, the threads naturally dissolve, and the nose gradually returns to its original shape.
The recovery process for a nose thread lift is relatively quick and straightforward. Most patients can resume their normal activities within 24 to 48 hours after the procedure. However, it is important to follow certain aftercare guidelines to ensure the best results and minimize the risk of complications. These include avoiding strenuous activities and facial massages for a week, keeping the head elevated while sleeping, and avoiding excessive sun exposure. Patients may experience some mild swelling or bruising, but these symptoms typically subside within a few days.
A nose thread lift is a safe, effective, and non-surgical option for those looking to enhance the shape and contour of their nose without undergoing surgery. At Westwood Clinic, we offer personalized consultations to determine if this procedure is right for you and to create a treatment plan tailored to your unique goals.
