Doctor-led care
Géniale provides doctor-led thread lift consultations and procedures from our Kew clinic in Melbourne for patients considering non-surgical facial rejuvenation options.
A thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses medical-grade threads placed beneath the skin to support soft tissue and assist with facial contouring.
Depending on the treatment area, thread type and individual patient factors, threads may provide mechanical support and may also stimulate a collagen response over time.
A consultation is required to assess whether thread lifting is appropriate or whether another treatment pathway may better suit the patient’s anatomy, goals and risk profile.
Consultation focus
Facial anatomy, skin quality, tissue support, medical history, recovery, limitations and alternatives are discussed before treatment is recommended.
Thread lifts are not one-size-fits-all. Each area is assessed according to anatomy, tissue support, skin quality, degree of laxity and whether thread lifting is suitable compared with other options.
