Thread lift problem

Threads Are Still Too Tight

I think I jumped with joy too quickly. They loosened the threads on right side, so it’s not as awful as it was before. However, the threads are still tight and indentation is still massive. The cheeks still do not look symmetrical. I’m going to wait a month for them to settle, but if it still looks bad after a while, I think I will need them surgically removed or adjusted. Hate going under again, but this may need to be done to correct this problem

Hi , how are you feeling? It has been more than 5 weeks now from the procedure, any improvements for you? Are the threads still tight and the indentation obvious? I have done a similar procedure 5 days ago and I feel that my face is very tight and also have some indentation in my cheeks. Please update with your progress. Thanks.
Yes, an update would be nice!
Hi. How are you doing today? Is your face looking back to normal? And are you happy now? I am going to have nova threads placed this week. Have you noticed any other negative side effects? Would you do it all over again? Thank you.
I am considering the same however I’m very leery of the mixed reviews. I cannot believe what they did to your cheeks, Leaving indentions!! What is wrong with them and I hope you were able to get resolution to the issue.
Hi. I’m in the same boat, i am suppose to get nova threads. Did you get threads in your cheeks?
I personally would never go through this again,and at more than £2000 a complete rip off as I looked not a jot different.
Honestly, I will be going in for my third time. To now fix a lump on the side of my left face. I went through it all a second time to lift the left side to match my right. All I have gone through is more bruising and new lump. I did my study well. Save your money for fillers or botox or?

Loosened Threads But Still Tight

What part of the country are you in please? You may want to find a better practitioner. Ask for your money back to get it fixed elsewhere. Just a thought. You should think about posting the name your practitioner because they will hurt other people in the mean time. It's been a while, so has it settled? The indentions?
I agree with Saf559, you should post the name of the practitioner, this way others won't go to them for this procedure.
I agree. If someone isnt skilled enough to carry out the procedure then shouldnt be playn with peoples faces
What happened after 16 days ? How did you get rid of the dimples?

They fixed it!

I’m numbed up but I think they fixed it! They used a syringe to release the tight threads. My cheek is puffy after the procedure but it should look much better in a few days. Lots of ice to reduce swelling right now.

It still looks tight even after they loosened threads.
Hopefully it’s maybe swelling that’s making them tight and the will look better soon
Fingers crossed
How did they loosen them? U said syringe but how exactly if you remember? Having same problem any experience helps!
give it time and massage your face
