Non-surgical thread facelifts are suitable for patients who have mild to moderate skin laxity. The ideal candidate is in their late thirties to early fifties. In contrast, most patients beyond the age of 55 will reap more benefits from facelift surgery. On the other hand, thread lifts can provide an alternative to surgery for older people who cannot have surgery for medical reasons. Many patients with age-related illnesses that render them ineligible for surgery, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, can benefit from thread lifts because they can be performed under local anaesthetic.
