One of the most popular methods in this field is the thread lift. It can provide a moderate tightening effect on slightly to moderately sagging areas of the face, but its results are significantly more limited compared to a surgical facelift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what exactly happens beneath the skin during the procedure, what different types of threads are there, and how realistic are the results?
