Thread brow lift is a non-surgical procedure that uses special threads to lift and reshape the eyebrows. The cost of the procedure starts at $1,800, but can vary depending on the number of threads used. Usually 2-4 threads are needed for each side of the face.
The procedure usually takes around 60 minutes. Recovery takes 2-3 days, and bruising is common, so plan two weeks if bruising would matter for an event. Most people return to desk work after 48-72 hours.
Common side effects include mild pain, redness, and swelling at the injection site. These side effects usually resolve within a few days.
Eyebrow lift using PDO threads is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure where polydioxanone threads are used to elevate and tighten the eyebrows and the forehead to minimize wrinkles, lines, and correct saggy or drooping eyebrows.
HOW DOES THREAD BROW LIFT WORK
The thread brow lift technique is a low-risk, non-surgical alternative to the traditional facelift, delivering excellent aesthetic results without leaving scars and requiring minimal downtime for healing. Barbed PDO threads are inserted into the facial skin using a cannula to lift and tighten the treated area, including the upper face, eliminating wrinkles and forehead lines, and correcting the position of the eyebrows. The procedure stimulates natural collagen production and cellular renewal, improving your skin’s density and elasticity.

Who is a good candidate for a thread brow lift?
Changes of eyebrow position are one of the first signs of aging. Your skin becomes less elastic and loses volume over time, while your face muscles simultaneously lose tone and firmness. Low eyebrows can make the eyes look heavy and even create a sad appearance. Higher brows, on the other hand, open up your eyes and instantly give you a fresher, younger and even more attractive look. By repositioning the tissues involved in the brow drooping, we achieve more youthful, rested and refreshed appearance.
PDO THREAD BROW LIFT IS PARTICULARLY RECOMMENDED TO PEOPLE WITH:
- Heavy eyebrows
- Sad, tired or angry facial appearance
- Lines and wrinkles across the forehead and between the eyebrows
- Heavy upper eyelids (however, significant eyelid ptosis, might require plastic surgery)
- Fear of traditional plastic surgeries
Contraindications
However, there are certain contraindications, which should be discussed with your doctor. PDO threads are not suitable for pregnant or nursing women. Patients with excessive sagging skin, loose skin or significant loss of fatty tissue in the face, infections or acute inflammations in the treatment areas, autoimmune disease or recent history of chemotherapy or any other immunosuppressive therapy, should also avoid PDO thread brow lift. This procedure are not suitable for young patients. Patients over age of 40 will benefit most from PDO brow lift.
What are the side effects of a PDO thread lift procedure?
PDO thread brow lift treatment does not possess significant health risks, such as surgery. Typical side effects include discomfort, swelling, tenderness and bruising in the treatment area. The highest risk of any injectable cosmetic procedure is the risk of infection, which can be avoided in the hands of licensed medical professional, trained in PDO threads lifts.
What to expect during a thread brow lift
Treatment plan
This simple and absolutely safe technique is performed under local anesthesia. We require neurotoxin injections (Botox, Dysport or Daxxify) two weeks prior to brow lift procedures to relax the frontalis muscle and allow PDO threads to heal without complications.
During your neurotoxin appointment, you will discuss with Dr Natalya your goals and expectations from upcoming PDO brow lift procedure.
PDO thread brow lift treatment is carried out by our licensed naturopathic physician. It starts with injection of local anesthesia. Next, Dr. Natalya will create small opening in your skin through which PDO threads will be inserted. Placed barbed threads are tightened which instantly lifts and repositions sagging skin. Since we do not use general anesthesia or any other sedating medications, you will be able to drive home after the procedure.
PDO threads are biodegradable sutures which will dissolve over time, while continuously stimulating collagen production, tightening and strengthening your skin for many months after the procedure.
What results can you expect from a thread brow lift?
A PDO thread brow lift gives a visible lift on the day of treatment, because Dr. Borakowski tightens the barbed threads to reposition the brow before you leave. The lift usually lasts 12 to 24 months. One treatment uses 2 to 4 threads on each side.
For brow lifts Dr. Borakowski mostly uses PLLA/PCL threads, which dissolve in about 24 months. While they dissolve, they keep stimulating collagen, so skin density and elasticity continue to improve for months after the procedure. When the effect wears off, you can repeat the treatment to keep the lift.
- Patients over 40 tend to benefit most.
- Following aftercare protects the result: no makeup, alcohol or side sleeping for 3 days, no extreme facial expressions for 4 weeks, no exercise, saunas or swimming for 2-4 weeks, and no facials or facial massage for a month.
- Significant eyelid ptosis may need plastic surgery rather than threads.

What is recovery like after a thread brow lift, and what are the risks?
Follow-up care
When it comes to side effects, you will likely have a sore forehead for a few days, and you might experience some slight bruising and minor swelling, but they will soon fade away. The tightening and lifting effect of PDO threads usually lasts 12 to 24 months after the procedure. To ensure the best results, there are several things you must avoid after a PDO thread lift. These include: sleeping on your stomach or side, applying makeup, drinking alcohol, making extreme facial expressions, and receiving facials and facial massages.
Most thread brow lifts last 12 to 24 months, and once the effects wear off, you can repeat the procedure to maintain youthful and beautiful skin.
Precautions
There are certain simple rules we suggest you to follow before PDO brow lift in order to get the best out of your treatment and minimize the risk of complications.
- Smoking and all kinds of alcohol must be avoided for at least one week before the treatment as they can dehydrate the skin, increase chance for bleeding and bruising and even affect anesthesia.
- Omega fish oils, vitamin E, chili pepper, ginseng, garlic should be excluded from your diet or supplementation at least two days in advance.
- NSAIDs medications such as Aspirin, Advil, Motrin, or ibuprofen must be avoided for a week prior to your treatment, as these medications will increase chances for bleeding, bruising and formation of hematoma.
- It is important to refrain from high-intensity exercises, sauna or steam room for at least 24 hours prior to your procedure.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How much does a thread brow lift cost?
A thread brow lift at Desert Bloom starts at $1,800. The final price depends on how many PDO threads you need, usually 2 to 4 on each side of the face. Dr. Borakowski sets the thread count at your consultation. You also need a neurotoxin treatment 2 weeks beforehand, which is priced separately.
How long does a thread brow lift last?
A thread brow lift usually lasts 12 to 24 months. The threads dissolve over time but keep stimulating collagen while they do, which helps firm the skin. When the lift fades, you can repeat the procedure to keep the result.
Does a thread brow lift hurt?
A thread brow lift is done under local anesthesia, so the area is numbed before Dr. Borakowski places the threads. No sedation or general anesthesia is used, so you can drive yourself home. Afterwards, expect a sore forehead, possibly with slight bruising and minor swelling, which fade on their own.
Do I need Botox before a thread brow lift?
Yes. Desert Bloom requires a neurotoxin treatment, such as Botox or Dysport, 2 weeks before a thread brow lift. Relaxing the forehead muscle lets the PDO threads heal without complications. At that neurotoxin appointment, you also go over your goals for the brow lift with Dr. Borakowski.
What should I avoid before a thread brow lift?
Before a thread brow lift, avoid smoking and alcohol for at least 1 week, and stop aspirin, Advil, Motrin and ibuprofen for 1 week to lower the risk of bleeding and bruising. Cut out fish oil, vitamin E, chili pepper, ginseng and garlic 2 days ahead. Skip intense exercise, saunas and steam rooms for 24 hours.
