Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Smooth Threads 15 Units.

Our practitioners commonly treat fine lines and mild laxity on cheeks, jowls, nasolabial folds, perioral area, under-eye hollows, and neck. Placement is tailored to your anatomy to optimize texture improvement and subtle lifting with fifteen units of smooth threads.

Many patients notice gradual improvement over 4–12 weeks as collagen forms, with effects lasting 9–18 months depending on skin condition, lifestyle, and maintenance. Periodic follow-ups or complementary treatments can extend or boost results.

We apply topical numbing and gentle techniques to minimize discomfort; most clients report mild pressure or tugging during the procedure. Recovery is quick, with minor swelling or bruising that typically resolves within a week or two.

Common temporary side effects include bruising, swelling, redness, or tenderness at insertion points. Rare risks include infection or thread migration. Our team follows strict aseptic protocols and provides aftercare instructions to minimize complications.

A single 15-unit session often provides noticeable improvement for mild concerns, but some clients benefit from a series spaced months apart. Your provider will recommend a personalized plan based on skin laxity, goals, and response to initial treatment.

Ideal candidates are adults with early to moderate skin laxity seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation without surgery. Good overall health and realistic expectations are important; a consultation determines suitability and whether other treatments might better meet your goals.
