What Is A COG Face Lift?
A COG Face Lift is an advanced, non-surgical treatment designed to lift and tighten sagging skin across the face. Using dissolvable “cog” threads with tiny barbs, the procedure creates an instant lifting effect while stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production. The result is a refreshed, youthful appearance that looks natural and lasts long after the threads have dissolved.
Natural Results
This treatment gently lifts and redefines the lower face, while ensuring a natural-looking result.
Non-Surgical Option
It offers a non-surgical solution, making it possible to achieve noticeable results without invasive surgery or lengthy recovery times.
Quick and Convenient
Because it is quick and convenient with no general anaesthesia used, most appointments take up to an hour.
Who Is A COG Face Lift Suitable For?
A COG Face Lift is suitable for men and women who are beginning to notice the signs of ageing in the mid and lower face. It’s particularly effective for those with mild to moderate sagging in the cheeks, jawline, or jowls, or for individuals experiencing a loss of skin firmness and facial definition.
This treatment is ideal for people who want a non-surgical alternative to a facelift, delivering visible lifting and tightening without the risks, costs, or long recovery associated with surgery.
Benefits Of A COG Face Lift
A COG Face Lift is a modern, non-surgical option that lifts and tightens the skin while improving overall skin quality through collagen stimulation.
Restored Youthful Contours
Redefines the cheeks, jowls and jawline by reducing sagging and laxity, creating smoother lines and a more sculpted profile.
Stimulated Collagen
The threads encourage your skin to produce more collagen, strengthening and firming the tissue over time to support long-term rejuvenation.
Boosted Confidence
For many patients, a face lift leads to greater confidence, as they feel refreshed and more youthful with a defined, balanced profile.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What Is A COG Face Lift And How Does It Work?
A COG Face Lift is a non-surgical thread lift procedure that uses dissolvable threads with tiny barbs (“cogs”) to lift and reposition sagging skin on the face. These threads anchor into the tissue to provide an instant lift, while also stimulating collagen production for gradual tightening and skin rejuvenation.
Is A COG Face Lift Painful?
The treatment is usually well tolerated. A local anaesthetic is applied before the procedure, so discomfort is minimal. Patients may feel a slight pulling or pressure, but most find the experience very manageable.
How Long Does A COG Face Lift Last?
Results typically last 12–18 months. Even after the threads dissolve, the collagen boost continues to support firmer, healthier skin, extending the benefits of the treatment.
When Will I See Results From A COG Face Lift?
An instant lifting effect can be seen straight after treatment, with further improvements developing over the following weeks as collagen levels increase. The full result is visible within 4–6 weeks.
