The secret to lip threading is its name. A simple surgical floss can get you full lips. Healthline shares that with a tiny needle, a medical professional inserts a dissolvable thread through your lip line to boost collagen and provide a lift. The technique is nonsurgical, minimally invasive, and appears natural. Threads can be added to create structure in lips for a more defined cupid's bow, to heighten the lip line, or to increase volume.
According to WebMD, as the thread dissolves, your body naturally produces collagen to heal the lesion. This production can combat wrinkles threatening your lips as low collagen causes the skin to sag and dehydrate. The procedure is FDA-approved, and results can last up to three years. It does come with the possibility of pain and infection, as with many procedures. But with fillers being one of the most popular lip injections, do thread lifts have a chance to steal the spotlight?
