Can threadlift be reversed? Or can only certain types of threads be revered?

Question

I'm considering a threadlift. I'm 27 but see sagging on my face and would like a threadlift as I feel too young for a face lift procedure and dislike fillers. Before I go ahead though I'd like to know if it can be reversed or if only certain types of threads ( pdo, cog etc ) can be reversed?

Hello Astro.  Although we do not use threads and dislike the benefit compared to cost and side effects, we do not believe any are reversible.  Surgically removed yes, but you probably don't want to consider that.  Threads have approximately 38% complication rate and the period they provide benefit for (less than 2 years) and the amount of benefit (minor lifting) means that we do not see enough value in them to offer them.  Before undertaking this type of procedure, we would highly advise you do lots of research and ask for the practices own before and after photos.
