We are discussing two popular surgical procedures for facial rejuvenation: facelift and thread lift. Signs of aging can be a frustrating situation for many people. In such cases, facial rejuvenation procedures are appealing to many.

Although aging is a natural part of life, its effects on the face can become serious problems that undermine self-confidence. With aging, sagging, deep lines, and volume loss on the face become inevitable. The two methods we will discuss in this article both aim for a younger, more dynamic, and healthier facial appearance; however, they differ in terms of application method, duration of permanence, and recovery processes.

What is a Facelift?

Deep facelift is an advanced surgical technique that effectively targets the skin layers of the face.
This procedure aims to correct the signs of aging in the middle and lower regions of the face. Dr. MFO tightens the skin using a face lift method with personalized planning. This method improves skin elasticity and muscle tissue. It tightens sagging cheeks, resulting in a smoother and younger-looking face.
With this method:
- The cheeks, jawline, and neck area are reshaped.
- Sagging muscles and tissues are repositioned to their natural anatomical location.
- Results can last for many years.
- Facelift is one of the most effective solutions, especially for older age groups, for individuals with noticeable sagging and deep wrinkles.
What is Thread Lift?

Thread lifting is a more minimal and non-surgical facial rejuvenation technique. It is one of the most popular procedures in recent times. This is because it is one of the first minimally invasive skin tightening procedures. Thread lifting provides a taut and firm skin appearance by placing temporary stitches in targeted areas of the skin.
Using special dissolvable threads in this procedure:
- Mild sagging in the face is corrected.
- The eyebrows, cheeks, and jawline appear more lifted.
- Collagen production in the skin is stimulated, resulting in healthier tissue over time.
- People can return to their daily lives shortly after thread lifting. However, this method generally lasts for 1.5–2 years and may not be sufficient on its own for advanced sagging.
Which Method Is Right for You?
Deciding which method is most suitable in facial surgery is determined through evaluations conducted with the surgeon. Each individual’s facial features and needs are different. It would not be accurate to mention a specific method. However, in general terms:
- For individuals under 40 with mild sagging and loss of elasticity: Thread lifting offers a more practical solution.
- For individuals over 40 with pronounced lines and facial contour irregularities: Deep facelift provides much more long-term and comprehensive results.
- For those not ready for surgery: Thread lifting can be the first step.
- For those seeking permanent and dramatic change: Deep facelift should be preferred.
Why Choose Dr. MFO for Your Facelift Procedure?
Thread facelifts and facelifts are particularly popular among patients who want to achieve facial contours. However, determining which method is suitable for whom requires a careful and detailed assessment. At this point, Dr. MFO focuses on the needs of his patients and considers the most suitable option for them. This ensures much healthier and more successful results.
Conclusion
There is no one-size-fits-all solution in the world of aesthetics. Facelift surgery is the most powerful option for those who are ready for surgery, due to its permanence and comprehensive effect. Thread lifting, on the other hand, is an attractive alternative for younger age groups who want quick results without surgery.
Both methods have their advantages and limitations. Therefore, the most appropriate decision should be made after consulting with an experienced aesthetic surgeon who will thoroughly examine your facial structure.
