Introduction

If you’ve been searching for a non-surgical way to enhance your nose shape without going under the knife, the nose thread lift might be the ideal solution. At Westwood Clinic, this minimally invasive treatment is gaining popularity for its ability to lift, refine, and contour the nose—offering subtle yet noticeable results that enhance your natural features. In this guide, we’ll explain how nose thread lifts work, what results you can expect, and why more people are turning to Westwood Clinic for a beautifully balanced nose profile without fillers or surgery.

What Is a Nose Thread Lift?

A nose thread lift is a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure designed to enhance the shape and structure of the nose without surgery. Using dissolvable threads—typically made of PDO (polydioxanone)—the treatment lifts and defines areas like the nose bridge, tip, and columella to create a more sculpted and symmetrical profile.

Unlike traditional rhinoplasty, there’s no cutting or downtime, which is why it’s often referred to as a “non-surgical nose job.” The threads are inserted under the skin with a fine needle and then gently adjusted to lift and contour the nose. Over time, they stimulate collagen production, further improving structure and firmness.

Thread Lift vs. Fillers: What’s the Difference?

While both nose thread lifts and dermal fillers are non-surgical methods for enhancing the nose, they work very differently:

Thread Lift 

Fillers (like hyaluronic acid)

  • provides mechanical lift and support to reshape and elevate the nose. It’s ideal for creating definition and structure, particularly for a higher bridge or sharper tip.

  • add volume to smooth contours or create projection. However, they cannot lift the nose the way threads can and may migrate over time if not done carefully.



How Does a Nose Thread Lift Work?

A nose thread lift uses PDO (polydioxanone) threads, which are medical-grade, bio-absorbable sutures commonly used in surgical procedures. These threads are carefully inserted beneath the skin to create structural support and lift the nasal tissues—without any cutting or implants.

The Process Step-by-Step:

  1. Consultation & Mapping
    The treatment begins with a personalised consultation at Westwood Clinic, where your facial proportions are assessed and key areas are marked for enhancement.

  2. Local Anaesthesia
    A topical numbing cream or local anaesthetic is applied to ensure minimal discomfort during the procedure.

  3. Insertion of Threads
    Using a fine, hollow needle or cannula, the PDO threads are gently inserted into targeted areas such as the:

    • Nose bridge – to create height and definition

    • Nose tip – to lift and refine the angle

    • Columella – to support and lengthen the nose base if needed

  4. Lifting & Shaping
    The threads are positioned strategically to lift the tissues and shape the nose. Results are visible immediately, with further improvement as collagen builds around the threads over the next few weeks.

Collagen Stimulation for Long-Term Results

As the threads gradually dissolve over the next 6–8 months, they stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, which helps maintain the nose’s new contour and firmness for up to 12–18 months.

Quick and Convenient

The entire procedure typically takes just 20 to 30 minutes, making it a popular lunchtime treatment for busy professionals seeking instant, natural results with minimal downtime.

Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Nose Thread Lift?

A nose thread lift is an excellent option for individuals who want to enhance their nose shape without surgery—but it’s not for everyone. Here’s how to know if you’re the right fit for this treatment at Westwood Clinic:

 

Ideal Candidates:

Not Suitable For:

  • Flat or Low Nose Bridge
    If you have a naturally flat or undefined nose bridge and want more height or structure, thread lifts can help create a sharper, more lifted look.

  • Mildly Droopy or Round Nose Tip
    Threads can refine and slightly elevate the nose tip for better definition and a more balanced profile.

  • Looking for Subtle, Natural Enhancement
    Perfect for those who want to improve their nose contour without looking “done” or overly augmented.

  • Healthy Adults in Their 20s to 40s
    Most candidates fall within this age range, as the skin is still firm enough to respond well to collagen stimulation.

  • Severely Crooked or Deviated Noses
    In cases of significant asymmetry or internal nasal deviation, a surgical approach like rhinoplasty may be more appropriate.

  • Previous Nose Surgeries
    If you’ve undergone rhinoplasty or other nasal procedures, threads may not be safe or effective due to scar tissue or altered anatomy.

  • Active Skin Infections or Poor Healing Response
    Conditions that affect wound healing or skin health could increase risks and reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.
