What is Breast Thread Lifting?
Breast Thread Lifting (TBL) represents an innovative, minimally-invasive solution for women seeking breast rejuvenation without surgery. This advanced procedure addresses sagging tissue, breast asymmetry, and skin texture concerns while stimulating natural collagen production for long-lasting results.
The N-Lift Procedure
The N-Lift is a newly designed trade-marked procedure exclusive to Dr. Nadia Yousri’s clinic. Dr. Nadia has extensive knowledge of the micro-anatomy and micro-physiology of the breast.
How Does TBL Work?
The procedure utilises FDA-approved dissolving threads, which have a proven safety record in surgical applications spanning decades. These premium-quality threads are strategically placed to:
- Lift and reposition sagging breast tissue
- Stimulate natural collagen production
- Enhance breast appearance and symmetry
- Provide long-lasting rejuvenation effects

The Threads Used in Breast Thread Lifting
Dr Yousri uses premium, FDA-approved PDO threads such as MINT™, which are highly regarded for their safety and effectiveness in medical procedures.
SPRING™ threads are also used for their superior elasticity and durability. Made from an inert silicone matrix and polyester, they offer flexibility and deliver longer-lasting results. The choice of thread depends on the specific treatment goals and the patient’s breast anatomy.
MINT™ threads are biodegradable and dissolve within approximately 6–9 months. However, the collagen stimulation they promote can enhance skin firmness for 1–2 years. SPRING™ threads, known for their resilience, provide results that typically last 3–5 years.

Recovery and Aftercare
While there’s no significant downtime, patients should:
- Avoid direct pressure on the treated area for 1-2 weeks
- Refrain from high-impact exercise for 2-4 weeks
- Follow specific aftercare instructions provided

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can threads be used to lift breasts?
How painful is a thread lift?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure, which is performed under local anaesthetic. After the treatment, you may experience mild soreness or swelling, which usually subsides within a few days.
How long does a thread lift last?
The results of a breast thread lift typically last between 9 and 24 months, depending on the type of threads used and your body’s natural collagen production. SPRING™ threads can provide longer-lasting results of up to 3–5 years.
Is breast thread lift safe?
The procedure is considered safe when performed by an experienced specialist like Dr Nadia Yousri. The threads used are FDA-approved and have a strong safety record in medical applications.
What is the best age for a thread lift?
Breast thread lifting is generally suitable for women over 25 who have mild to moderate breast sagging. It’s ideal for those looking to improve breast firmness without undergoing surgery.
How does a breast thread lift compare to a traditional breast lift?
A thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure with little downtime, whereas a traditional breast lift requires surgery and a more extended recovery period. A thread lift offers a more natural look but may not provide the same degree of lift as surgery.
Will my breasts feel natural after a thread lift?
Yes, since the procedure enhances your natural breast tissue and stimulates collagen production, the results look and feel natural.
How soon can I return to regular activities after a thread lift?
You can resume most daily activities within 1–2 days. However, to allow for proper healing, it’s recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise and direct pressure on the breasts for 2–4 weeks.
Are the results of a breast thread lift immediate?
Yes, you’ll notice an immediate lifting effect after the procedure. However, the full results will develop over the next 6–8 weeks as collagen production increases.
Can I combine a breast thread lift with other treatments?
A breast thread lift can be combined with other non-surgical treatments, such as skin tightening or fat transfer, to enhance overall results. Dr Nadia can advise and will create a personalised treatment plan based on your goals.
