Grand Diamond Thread Lift

Many patients are able to fly home within 1 to 2 days after Grand Diamond threads, though mild swelling, bruising and tightness can last several days to about two weeks. Eating may feel awkward at first, so avoid scheduling it on your departure day. A remote pre-consult before you travel helps.

After a decade the old threads are gone, so a fresh full lower-face Grand Diamond lift often uses around 8 to 16 cog threads, usually in a single session with optional top-ups later. Programs span roughly 3,999 to 129,000 baht; the doctor sets the exact count after reviewing your face in person.

Grand Diamond uses PDO or PCL cog threads to physically reposition sagging tissue, while HIFU and Thermage (RF) tighten by heating deeper layers without lifting. For clear jowl sagging, threads tend to give a more immediate lift, while energy devices may suit milder laxity. Results vary, and many patients combine both after a consultation.

Discomfort is mild with local anaesthesia. Most patients describe a pressure sensation rather than pain.

Most patients return the next day. Avoid strenuous exercise and facials for 14 days.

Thread lifting is non-surgical, with no incisions or general anaesthesia. Results are subtler and last 18–24 months.

The threads gradually dissolve within 1–2 years, during which the body keeps stimulating new collagen and tissue. Lifting results typically last around 18–24 months, depending on your skin and aftercare.

Avoid medicines and supplements that thin the blood, skip alcohol and energy drinks, arrive without makeup on the day, wash your hair beforehand, rest well, and tell the physician about any medical conditions or drug allergies in advance.

Keep the entry points dry for 24 hours, avoid makeup for about 6–8 hours, and avoid massaging, wide smiling or firm pressure on the face so the threads settle. Avoid heat, sauna and facial treatments for at least 2 weeks, and alcohol for 1 week. Use a cold compress if sore, take any medication as prescribed, and attend your follow-up.

It depends on your facial structure and goals; the physician assesses this at consultation. As a full-face protocol, Grand Diamond typically uses around 6–8 threads.

The procedure is quick — usually about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

It can generally be combined with other treatments. We recommend a consultation first to plan the sequence and confirm what's suitable for you.

At Waleerat Clinic a Facial Designer helps map the thread placement to each patient's facial structure and assesses the right number of threads, for a natural-looking result.

The price depends on the thread type, the number of threads and the area treated. The starting price is shown on this page; at your consultation the physician assesses how many threads suit your facial structure and gives you the full price in writing before anything begins.

Swelling, bruising, tightness and tenderness in the treated area are common in the first 3–7 days and are a normal tissue response. Dimpling, unevenness or thread migration are uncommon and can usually be corrected. Contact the clinic promptly if you have severe pain, unusual redness or swelling, fever or discharge. Side effects and suitability vary by individual, and the physician assesses you beforehand.

Keep the entry points dry for 24 hours and avoid makeup for 6–8 hours. Avoid facial massage, wide mouth-opening and firm pressure for about 2 weeks so the threads settle. Avoid heat, sauna and facial treatments for at least 2 weeks, and alcohol for 1 week. Sleep with your head slightly raised, use a cold compress if swollen, take any prescribed medication and attend your follow-up.

The number of threads depends on your facial structure, the degree of laxity and your goals. The price shown here is a starting price, not the final price for every case. The physician confirms the thread count at consultation and gives you the total before treatment begins.

PDO/PLLA absorbable threads are fully synthetic polymers (polydioxanone / poly-L-lactic acid). No animal-derived components, no alcohol. If you avoid animal-derived materials, this treatment is open to you. Tell the physician at consultation and the specific product and lot used on the day can be confirmed with you. This reflects the ingredients used, not a halal certification.

Mapping — Physician marks insertion points and lift vectors based on facial volumetry. Anaesthesia — Topical numbing followed by tumescent local anaesthetic at insertion points. Thread placement — Multi-directional barbed and smooth threads placed at SMAS depth across temple, mid-face, jaw and neck. Sculpt — Physician sculpts and tensions threads for symmetrical, natural lift. Recovery — Cold compress, aftercare brief. Patients leave the same day. A physician assesses your face first and sets the plan; what is done and where follows from that assessment.

Generally considered for: Facial sagging from age 35 onward · Loss of definition along the jawline · Heavy nasolabial folds and marionette lines · Patients seeking a single-session, high-coverage lift. Whether it suits you is decided by a physician at assessment, and there are people for whom it is not advised.

Downtime: Minimal — mild bruising up to 3 days. How quickly this settles varies from person to person; ask your physician before planning anything that depends on the date.
