by

Have you been looking at yourself in the mirror and feeling insecure about your nose shape? You might have also been Googling for options to change its shape. Your days, weeks, or maybe even months of considering might have just led you to this article. Nose thread lift is among the few ways you can change the shape of your nose aesthetically. This procedure can change the tip of your nose and the height of your nose bridge.

At Dr Alice Total Wellness Centre, the procedure is a common treatment requested by our clients. As aesthetics experts led by Dr. Alice Prethima, we will provide you with a full explanation in this guide to thread lift in Malaysia to help you make an informed decision. Read on to find out all about Thread Lifts for Noses. 

What is a Nose Thread Lift and What are Its Benefits?

The nose changes shape as we age due to ageing as well as the undeniable effects of gravity which pulls our skin down as time goes on. A nose thread involves PDO threads or temporary sutures being inserted in the skin, in either the nose bridge or the tip of the nose. However, PDO threads only last up to 3-6 months and cause type-1 scarring fibrosis. While nose fillers can lift the tip better than nose thread lift, it comes with higher risks such as skin necrosis and blindness in the worst-case scenario.

The threads we offer are permanent threads using PLLA & PCL. PLLA is Poly-L-Lactic & PCL is Polycaprolactone. These two threads have more effect at stimulating collagen production. It has a lower rate of degradation and makes it ideal for insertion of surrounding tissues over an extended time, achieving longer lasting results.

How Does A Nose Thread Lift Work?

The process of getting a thread lift is simple and quick. A topical anaesthetic will be used during the start of the procedure to minimise any pain that could be felt. The threads will then be inserted under your skin using a tiny needle or cannula. The insertion process can take anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes per area. After the insertion, the doctor will tug your skin tightly after inserting the threads to make sure they are tightly gripping your muscles and underlying tissue. You could possibly feel under-skin sensations including minor pressure or tightening. However, the discomfort is minor depending on the patients’ tolerance levels. 

What Are The Side Effects of A Nose Thread Lift?

The nose thread lift is a low-risk procedure. However, this does not mean that it has no side effects. The first 48 hours after your procedure is the most crucial as that is when side effects might occur. Hence it is important that you monitor your condition and strictly follow the instructions given by your doctor. Side effects include: 

  • Infection
  • Bruising
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Numbness
  • Slight Unevenness 

If you notice any discharge around the treatment area, constant swelling past the 48 hour mark, persistent headaches, or a fever, you must contact your doctor right away for an inspection. 

How Do You Prepare For A Nose Thread Lift? 

Prior to your procedure, you will need to consult with your doctor. It is likely that during this consultation, your doctor will advise you on the preparation. You may be asked to:

  • Get a medical evaluation 
  • Adjust or take certain medications prescribed by a professional
  • Stop smoking 
  • Avoid anti-inflammatory drugs, herbal supplements, aspiring, and other drugs that could potentially increase bruising and bleeding
  • Arrange a friend or family member to pick you up post-surgery. They might also be required to stay with you overnight to assist you.
