Beyond Beautiful Instantlift with Threads

I recently turned 50 and have been noticing the dreaded signs of aging, including some sagging skin around my cheek and jaw area. This really bothered me and I decided it was time to do something about it! It was important to me to have natural looking results without changing my appearance too much and I definitely wasn’t ready to have really invasive surgery, like a facelift at this point in my life.
I have been a patient of Dr. Ho’s for over 10 years so I completely trust him to recommend the right treatment options for the results I want. He is always very knowledgeable on current innovative techniques and discusses these options in detail with me. He and his staff truly go above and beyond to make their patients feel welcome and comfortable.
After meeting with him for a consultation, he recommended a threading procedure that is called the Beyond Beautiful Instantlift. This was a perfect fit for me because it has no downtime, no scars and literally took 30-45 minutes in Dr. Ho’s office. I left immediately after my procedure and went to work with no one able to tell I had anything done!
I absolutely LOVE the results of my Beyond Beautiful Instantlift and it has exceeded my expectations! It continues to improve over time and I am thrilled that I look natural and refreshed. I will continue to refer my family and friends to Dr. Ho/Beyond Beautiful because he always customizes a plan to fit my lifestyle and the outcome I desire! Thank you Dr. Ho for knowing exactly what I needed to help me look and feel my best!!!

Hi there - you look like you are 35 and beautiful! I am considering this procedure and have a few questions, if you don't mind. How are the threads holding up and did / do you have any pain? How many threads were used and where were they inserted. Also, can you please provide a ballpark figure for how much your doctor charged? Thank you very much! D.
Wow thank you and what a super nice compliment! I continue to see improvement every day and I had minimal pain for the first week. I was careful not to be overly expressive with my face for the first week to make sure the threads stayed in tact. Honestly, the results have exceeded my expectations & I will do this again before I ever consider an extensive surgery or face lift. My advice is to make sure you choose a facial plastic surgeon that you trust & who knows the end results you are looking to achieve
Thanks so much for the nice compliment! I apologize for my delay in responding, I thought I already sent a reply to you;) The threads are improving each day and the pain was really minimal. I was sore for the first 4-5 days and you do have to be careful eating/chewing. My instructions also said to avoid dramatic facial expressions for the 7-10 days. I paid $1500 and need to confirm how many threads we used. I believe 4 on each side. Good luck to you and please lmk how it goes!!
Hi there you look great are you smiling or relaxed in the after photos just want to see if you're relaxed face is natural looking. How long did it take for recovery, were you able to go out the next day. Were there any strings that you can feel through your skin? And if you don't mind to share how much she charges for this procedure that would be great thanks ahead!
Hi thank you so much! I was not smiling in the photos and was trying to go w a relaxed look;) I bruise easily & I had some minor bruising around my jawline for about a week but I was able to cover them w my concealer. I honestly went to a meeting at work right after my procedure. I was able to wear make up and the only discomfort was that my jaws were a little sore. I had to be careful when eating and chewing so I recommend staying w soft foods for the first 2-3 days & avoid dramatic facial expressions for 7-10 days. I could not feel any strings but did have a small pea sized knot on my lower left jaw that dissolved after several days. I helped Dr Ho promote this procedure so he gave me a discount. I paid $1500 & confirmed I had 5 threads on ea side. I hope this is helpful for you & I am so happy with my results!! Buffy
Did he use any fillers? Like the other two responders, I am curious about the price. Thank you and he did do a beautiful job. It looks natural.
No fillers only the threads. Thank you so much for the compliment!
Hi you look awesome. Please can I ask how painful this was? How come you didn’t have any scars? Where the threads placed in your hairline?
The pain was ver minimal. I had the threads inserted on my lower jawline and fastened around my ear upper jaw area. The only incisions were small needles under my lower jaw. Very minimal bruising too.
Wow, stunning results!
