Who is medical threading recommended for?
Threading facial rejuvenation is the ideal choice for those who want to regain the firmness and youthful contours of their facial features without surgery. The treatment is a quick, safe and discreet solution to skin sagging.
Threading is particularly recommended between the ages of 30 and 55, when the skin has lost its firmness but a facelift is not yet justified.
We recommend if:
- Bothered by sagging of the facial contour or the appearance of a stubble
- Looking for a gentle, non-surgical solution to tighten skin
- You want your face to look fresher and younger
- Correct premature wrinkles, loose skin or slight asymmetry
- You want fast results with minimal recovery time
- Looking for a procedure that stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity in the long term
Spectacular results for the after medical threading
The aim of medical threading is to gently yet visually lift facial contours and restore the skin's natural firmness. After the treatment, the face becomes fresher and firmer, while maintaining its natural character. The fibres stimulate collagen production, so the results gradually improve over the following weeks.

Process
Step-by-step instructions for medical threading
Threading is a quick and precise procedure performed in a clinical setting by an experienced doctor. For information on each step, click on the step title.
Before the treatment, a detailed medical consultation takes place, during which the doctor assesses the skin condition, determines the type and number of fibres that are most suitable and plans the treatment. The consultation takes place in the clinic, in a premium and discreet environment, where all your questions will be answered.
The skin is thoroughly cleansed and then a local anaesthetic is applied for a painless procedure. The threads are inserted using tiny needle punctures, so no visible scars are left. The treatment usually takes 30-60 minutes.
The face instantly looks firmer and more contoured, while the effect remains natural. Slight swelling or tightness may occur after the procedure, but this usually disappears within 1-2 days. The final result is seen within 2-3 months, when collagen production is boosted.
Most patients can return to their daily activities after 1-2 days. It is recommended to avoid massage, excessive facial expressions, sauna and intense exercise for the first few days. The doctor will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a quick and smooth recovery.

Natural result, safe procedure
Medical threading is designed to gently lift facial contours while preserving the unique character of the face. At Saint James Clinic, all treatments are carried out with medical precision in a strict hygienic environment, so patients can feel safe throughout the entire process.
Is the treatment painful?
Threading is done under local anaesthesia, so most patients only feel a slight tension or pressure. The procedure is quick and well tolerated, with no severe pain.
What if the result is too spectacular or artificial?
Treatment is always personalised. The doctor uses exactly the right amount of threads and techniques to achieve a natural, facially appropriate result. The aim is a subtle, harmonious renewal that preserves the character of the face.
How long does the effect last?
The fibres both raise and stimulate collagen production in the skin, so the repair builds up gradually and naturally. The results last on average 12-24 months, depending on skin type and lifestyle.
Can side effects occur?
Temporary swelling, redness or mild tightness may occur after the procedure, but these will disappear within a few days. The strict hygienic environment and experienced medical team ensure that the treatment is safe.
