Introduction

In general, thread lifting for facial rejuvenation involves implanting collagen threads to lift the skin, thereby improving issues such as facial skin laxity, sagging, and wrinkles. Swelling typically subsides within 2–3 weeks. The exact duration depends on individual constitution, the extent of trauma, and the number of threads used. If the patient has good physical health, fast metabolism, and a relatively small number of threads are implanted, facial swelling may resolve in 1–2 weeks.

Generally, thread lifting for facial rejuvenation involves implanting collagen threads to lift the skin, thereby improving issues such as facial skin laxity, sagging, and wrinkles. If the patient has good physical health, fast metabolism, minimal surgical trauma, and a small number of implanted threads, facial swelling usually subsides within 1–2 weeks. However, if the patient has poor physical condition, slow metabolic capacity, extensive surgical trauma, or a large number of implanted threads, swelling may be more severe and take longer to resolve, potentially requiring 2–3 weeks for the face to fully de-swell. The recovery time should be assessed based on individual constitution, extent of trauma, and the number of threads used.
