In today’s world, the demand for non-surgical aesthetic treatments has skyrocketed. People want to look youthful, confident, and refreshed — but without the risks, cost, and downtime that come with traditional surgery. At Allure Laser Skin & Aesthetic Medicine Centre, one treatment that is changing the way our clients in Nairobi and Mombasa rejuvenate their appearance is the Thread Lift, also known as the PDO Thread Lift.
This advanced, minimally invasive procedure has become one of the fastest-growing trends in aesthetic dermatology worldwide — and now, it’s available right here in Kenya.
What Exactly is a Thread Lift?
A thread lift is often referred to as a “lunchtime facelift” because the treatment takes less than an hour and requires little to no downtime. The procedure uses biodegradable sutures made of Polydioxanone (PDO), a safe material that has been used in medical surgery for decades.
Here’s how it works:
1. Placement of Threads – Fine PDO threads are carefully inserted beneath the skin using tiny needles.
2. Immediate Lift – Once in place, the threads provide instant mechanical lifting to sagging areas.
3. Collagen Stimulation – Over the following weeks, your skin naturally produces collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid around the threads, improving firmness and elasticity.
4. Natural Dissolution – After about 6–9 months, the threads dissolve naturally, but the collagen stimulation continues to provide results for 12–18 months or longer.
It’s a treatment that doesn’t just lift — it heals and regenerates your skin from within.
Why Thread Lifting is Gaining Popularity in Kenya
Unlike surgical facelifts, which can involve anesthesia, weeks of recovery, and a “pulled” look, thread lifting offers:
- Quick results – walk into our clinic during lunch break and walk out looking lifted and refreshed.
- No scarring – there are no incisions, only tiny entry points.
- Minimal downtime – most people resume work or social activities within 1–2 days.
- Subtle, natural enhancement – your friends may notice you look better, but won’t know why.
For our busy Nairobi and Mombasa clients, this is the perfect solution for age management without putting life on hold.
Areas Thread Lifting Can Treat
Thread lifting is highly versatile and can be customized to treat multiple problem areas, including:
- Face: sagging cheeks, drooping eyebrows, under-eye area
- Jawline: redefining and sharpening jaw contours
- Neck: tightening loose or crepey skin
- Chin: reducing the appearance of double chin
- Body: arms, thighs, abdomen (for mild laxity)
This makes it ideal for clients in their 30s to 50s who are starting to notice early signs of skin sagging.
