Thread Lift Calgary Services
Absorbable thread lifts offer a temporary solution to skin laxity and facial wrinkles caused by aging, without having to undergo a surgical procedure.
Threads are approved by Health Canada.
Threads are basically an absorbable suture that offer a temporary solution to skin laxity and facial wrinkles caused by aging, without having to undergo a surgical procedure.
Unlike fillers, they work by lifting and pulling skin back to readjust fat rather than replacing lost volume. When placed correctly with aseptic technique, threads give the skin a lifted, smooth appearance.
A thread lift is a cosmetic procedure in which cogged or smooth threads are inserted just below the dermis, in order to rejuvenate and sculpt the skin to a desired facial shape, thus reversing signs of aging. Thread lifts Calgary offer a cheaper, less invasive alternative to a surgical facelift. However, the results are temporary, possibly lasting 2 years, but still offering a significant result.

Our Services
At Kane Medical Aesthetics, our Thread Lift treatments are designed to gently lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin—without surgery or extended downtime. Each treatment is tailored to your facial structure and goals, giving you natural results that enhance, not alter, your features. Using medical-grade threads and advanced techniques, we restore youthful contours and support long-term collagen production for lasting improvement.
Cheek & Mid-Face Lift
Threads are strategically placed to lift sagging cheeks and restore volume in the mid-face. This treatment improves definition, softens folds, and creates a youthful, refreshed appearance.
Jawline & Jowl Contouring
One of the most popular uses for threads is redefining the jawline. By tightening loose skin and reducing jowls, this treatment creates a firmer, sharper profile without invasive procedures.
Brow Lift
For clients looking to open up the eyes and refresh their overall expression, Threads can provide a subtle brow lift. The result is a brighter, more youthful look without the need for surgery.
Neck Tightening
Threads can also be used to improve the appearance of sagging or crepey skin in the neck area. This treatment restores firmness, smoothness, and balance between the face and neck.
Full-Face Rejuvenation
For clients wanting a comprehensive refresh, threads can be combined across multiple areas—cheeks, jawline, brows, and neck—for a full-face lift that restores harmony and balance to facial features.
What to Expect: From Consultation to Results
We make the entire Silhouette Instalift process simple and supportive, from your first
consultation to final results. You’ll get expert guidance, personalized planning, and visible improvements without the guesswork. Here’s a closer look at what happens before, during, and after your visit to our Calgary Medical Aesthetics Clinic.
Before the Procedure
It all starts with a consultation where we assess your concerns, review your facial anatomy, and talk through goals. Every plan is tailored based on your skin, lifestyle, and priorities. We walk you through the full treatment planning process to ensure you feel confident, informed, and excited to move forward.
During the Treatment
On the day of your thread lift, a local anesthetic is used to keep you comfortable. We use a cannula to place sutures under the skin, targeting the right areas for lift and support. The procedure is minimally invasive and takes about 30–60 minutes, depending on your treatment zone.
Aftercare & Recovery
Some patients experience light swelling or bruising, but downtime is usually minimal. We’ll provide easy post-care instructions so you know what to expect. Visible signs of lifting appear right away, with optimal results developing over the next few weeks as collagen production kicks in and your skin firms naturally.
Areas We Treat with Silhouette Instalift Threads
Instalift threads are designed to lift and tighten key treatment areas on the face, jawline, and neck. Whether it’s deep nasolabial folds or subtle fine lines, we strategically place threads to restore structure, refine contours, and improve the overall appearance of your facial skin, without surgery.
- Jawline thread lift for contour definition
- Nasolabial folds to soften smile lines
- Neck lift to firm crepey skin
- Brows for a subtle, non-surgical lift
- Cheeks and lower face for volume and skin tightening
How It Works
The threads are placed superficially under the skin with a needle or cannula, and pulled up to lift the skin. A secondary wound-healing process occurs after the procedure, stimulating new collagen to grow, which improves elasticity and texture of skin, as well as adding volume over time. Cogged threads grip the underlying tissues to lift skin up, while smooth threads act like struts and stimulate new collagen and rejuvenate skin. They often are used instead of filler in certain areas and have great results without the risk of swelling or bruising.
Threads can be made of Polydioxanone threads, little thicker than a strand of PLLA stands for Poly-L-Lactic Acid, a substance which has been used for many years as a medical material for membrane (tissue regeneration), suture and surgical sealant and as injectable facial rejuvenation treatment called Sculptra which works to stimulate collagen for a younger look.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Thread Lifts?
Thread lifts work best for people noticing early signs of sagging but aren’t ready for surgery. Let’s look at who benefits most and who should check in first.
Ideal Clients
Thread Lifts are perfect for patients noticing early visible signs of aging—like sagging skin, fine lines, or drooping in the lower face and neck—but who want to avoid surgery. They’re also a smart choice for those who’ve lost facial volume after weight loss or aging and want to restore contour and lift in specific treatment areas with minimal downtime.
If you’re already using Botox or fillers, thread lifts can complement your results. They help maintain a fresh appearance, support skin structure, and extend the benefits of your current routine.
Who Should Avoid or Consult First
Thread lifts are safe, but not for everyone. If you have certain health conditions, it’s best
to start with a free consultation to assess your needs. Patients with heavily overfilled skin or severe sagging may not see ideal results. Understanding your facial anatomy helps set realistic goals.
We always recommend speaking with our experienced medical professionals for expert advice. A quick healthcare consultation ensures your safety and helps you choose the best treatment solution for your face.
Results Timeline: When Will You See a Difference?
You’ll notice an immediate lift right after your thread lift, but the magic happens over the next few weeks as your skin naturally boosts collagen production.
Most clients enjoy their full results within 4–6 weeks, with a smoother, firmer look that lasts up to 18-24 months for a refreshed, youthful appearance.
The improvement continues gradually because threads stimulate your body’s healing response. As collagen builds beneath the skin, you’ll see enhanced definition, better texture, and a more lifted contour—all without surgery or extended downtime.
Pricing & Packages
Our thread lift pricing is based on the treatment area, whether you’re targeting the jawline, cheeks, or full face. We offer per area pricing so you only pay for what you need—no surprises, just real value.
At your consultation, we’ll create a customized treatment plan and walk you through all costs. Our value-based pricing ensures every dollar reflects expert care, quality threads, and noticeable results. Whether you’re new to thread treatments or combining with other services, we’ll make sure it fits your goals and budget.
