How much does a thread face lift cost UK?

Quick Answer

**Important clarification**: "Thread face lift" typically refers to PDO (polydioxanone) thread lifts—a cosmetic procedure that inserts dissolvable surgical threads under your skin to lift sagging tissues. This costs £800-£2,500 in the UK depending on the areas treated and thread quantity used. This is completely different from facial hair removal threading (using cotton thread to remove unwanted hair), which costs £15-30 for full face hair removal at beauty salons. Many people confuse these two entirely separate treatments because both use the word "thread."

### PDO Thread Lift Pricing (Cosmetic Procedure) PDO thread face lifts are medical aesthetic procedures performed by qualified practitioners, typically costing: - **Mid-face lift**: £1,200-£1,800 - **Lower face and jawline**: £1,000-£1,500 - **Full face lift**: £1,800-£2,500 - **Neck lift**: £800-£1,200 These prices reflect the medical nature of the procedure, practitioner expertise required, and the cost of sterile PDO threads which dissolve under your skin over 6-12 months while stimulating collagen production. Thread lifts are performed in clinics, sometimes with local anesthetic, and require medical consultation before treatment. The procedure involves inserting threads beneath your skin using fine needles or cannulas, then pulling them to lift sagging skin and create a more youthful facial contour. Results last 1-3 years typically, though individual variation is significant. This is an invasive procedure with potential complications including infection, thread migration, asymmetry, or visible threads under thin skin. PDO thread lifts aren't appropriate for everyone. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate skin laxity—not enough sagging to warrant surgical facelift but more than skincare products can address. Very thin skin, active infections, bleeding disorders, or unrealistic expectations may disqualify you from this treatment. ### Facial Hair Removal Threading Pricing (Beauty Treatment) In contrast, facial hair removal threading (what Mesmerising Beauty offers) is a non-invasive beauty service that removes unwanted facial hair using twisted cotton thread. UK pricing typically ranges: - **Eyebrow threading**: £8-15 - **Upper lip threading**: £5-8 - **Chin threading**: £6-10 - **Full face threading**: £20-35 - **Individual areas**: £5-10 each These treatments take 5-30 minutes depending on the area, involve zero needles or invasive procedures, and simply remove visible hair from the skin surface for a clean, groomed appearance. No anesthetic is needed, no medical consultation required, and you can resume normal activities immediately. Full face threading removes peach fuzz and unwanted facial hair to create smooth skin that makeup applies to beautifully. The treatment is completely different from thread lifts and serves an entirely different purpose—hair removal versus facial lifting. ### Understanding the Confusion The confusion between these treatments stems from both using "thread" in their names, but that's where the similarity ends: **PDO Thread Lift** (Medical aesthetic): - Inserts threads UNDER skin - Lifts sagging facial tissues - Costs £800-£2,500 - Performed by medical practitioners - Requires needles/anesthetic - Results last 1-3 years - Addresses skin laxity **Facial Hair Removal Threading** (Beauty treatment): - Moves thread ACROSS skin surface - Removes unwanted hair - Costs £15-30 for full face - Performed by beauty therapists - No needles, no anesthetic - Results last 2-6 weeks - Addresses facial hair The treatments don't overlap or compete—they address completely different concerns. You might receive both treatments but for entirely different reasons and from different types of practitioners. ### Which Treatment Do You Actually Want? If your concern is unwanted facial hair—upper lip hair, eyebrow shaping, peach fuzz removal, chin hair—you want traditional facial hair removal threading at a beauty salon. This is quick, affordable, non-invasive, and delivers smooth, hair-free skin. If your concern is sagging skin, loss of facial contour, jowls, or looking older due to skin laxity—and you want a non-surgical alternative to facelift—you want PDO thread lift from a qualified aesthetic practitioner. This is expensive, involves needles and medical procedures, and aims to lift and tighten loose skin. Most people searching for "thread face lift cost" are actually looking for information about PDO thread lifts (the cosmetic procedure), not facial hair removal threading. However, some people confuse the terms and are surprised to discover beauty salons offering "threading" aren't providing the lifting procedure they expected. ### Where to Get Each Treatment PDO thread lifts are available from: - Medical aesthetic clinics - Qualified aesthetic doctors - Specially trained nurse practitioners - Cosmetic surgery centers Facial hair removal threading is available from: - Beauty salons - Threading specialists - Eyebrow bars - Mobile beauty therapists Always verify practitioner qualifications match the treatment you're seeking. PDO thread lifts require medical training and should never be performed by unqualified practitioners. Facial hair removal threading requires beauty therapy training and experience but is not a medical procedure.

Expert Insight from Yogita

25+ Years Experience

I occasionally have clients come to Mesmerising Beauty asking about 'thread lifts' and I need to clarify that we offer traditional facial hair removal threading, not the cosmetic PDO thread lift procedure. They're completely different services with different purposes and very different price points. Our full face threading removes unwanted hair for £25 and takes 30 minutes—it's a beauty treatment that creates smooth, clean skin. Thread lifts cost thousands, involve medical procedures, and address skin sagging, not hair removal. The terminology confusion is understandable, but the treatments couldn't be more different.

Why this matters: Understanding the distinction prevents disappointment and ensures you book the treatment that actually addresses your concerns. Yogita's clarity helps clients understand what Mesmerising Beauty's threading services deliver versus what cosmetic thread lifts provide.
