If you are looking for results that are more effective and long lasting then Botox and other fillers, then a threads lift is the ideal choice. If you are put off by traditional surgery or don\u2019t want general anesthetic, then a thread lift is a great as it is minimally invasive and can be carried out under local anesthetic.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_6  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_2 et_pb_toggle_item  et_pb_toggle_close\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What are the risks?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix\"><p>Immediately afterwards, there may be some mild bruising, swelling, tenderness and numbness.
