Consultations Available in Brisbane Thread Lifts Brisbane

A thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses fine, dissolvable threads placed beneath the skin to reposition and support facial tissues. At his Brisbane clinic, Dr Scott Allison performs thread lift consultations to assess suitability, review medical history, and develop an individualised plan focused on realistic expectations and informed decision-making.

Thread lifts use biocompatible sutures made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) or polydioxanone (PDO) — materials that gradually dissolve and are absorbed by the body over time. These threads are inserted under the skin to provide structural support and may assist with collagen activity in the surrounding tissue.

As the threads dissolve, collagen activity may occur around their placement, which may contribute to changes in the appearance of skin firmness and contour over time. Individual responses will vary and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

Responses and longevity vary by individual factors (anatomy, skin quality, thread type/number, and aftercare.

Risks and Complications

All thread lift procedures carry potential risks, including:

  • Bruising or swelling

  • Temporary dimpling or tightness

  • Rare infection or thread migration

  • Rare asymmetry or visible irregularity as tissue settles

Serious complications can occur but are uncommon; your clinician will discuss personalised risk. During your consultation, Dr Allison will review all potential side effects, contraindications, and your aftercare plan in detail before treatment, you can read further about this on our Risks and Complications page
