THREADS
Thread procedure is a non-surgical alternative to a traditional facelift, providing skin tightening and long-term textural improvement of the skin. Board-certified dermatologist and skin tightening expert Dr. Sagar Gujjar performs this remarkable treatment to subtly lift sagging skin on the face and neck, treat acne scars, and volumize lips. At Dr. Gujjar’s state-of-the-art office in Pali Hill, Thread is often paired with additional skin tightening and collagen-boosting treatments to deliver beautiful, natural-looking results
WHAT IS THREADS?
A more youthful appearance starts with the face, but not everyone is a candidate or has the downtime or desire for a surgical facelift or neck lift. A thread lift can be an excellent alternative to cosmetic surgery for patients who want to tighten the cheeks, lower face, jowls, and neck area. In the hands of an expert like Dr. Gujjar, Threads can be strategically placed to create subdermal “scaffolding” that provides support for facial tissue. Dr.Gujjar can also perform this procedure to gently lift tissue and reposition the skin to restore aesthetic contours. SCHEDULE CONSULTATION
QUALIFICATIONS
HOW DOES THREADS WORK?
Threads are extremely fine, colourless threads that can lift, contour, and volumize the skin. Made from an organic, dissolvable material called polydioxanone (PDO), Threads can be smooth, twisted, or barbed for different applications.
PREPARATION
Dr. Gujjar begins each Threads procedure by identifying, marking, and applying topical anaesthetic to the desired treatment areas. He then selects the right threads for your procedure. Threads can be smooth, twisted, or barbed. Each type is used to achieve different results. Some Threads come preloaded on fine needles. Others are manually threaded through the interstitial tissue, parallel to the surface of the skin, using a cannula. Dr. Gujjar will carefully select the best method to precisely target your cosmetic concerns.
PROCEDURE
Smooth threads that are preloaded on baby-fine needles work to improve the texture of the skin and fine crepey skin such as around the mouth, under eyes, on the lips or neck, and on the elbows and knees. These do not lift the tissue, instead they create a structure that supports the skin and promotes gradual tightening over time through long-term collagen production. Threads are threaded horizontally through the dermis, allowing Dr. GUJJAR gently manipulate the skin to create a smoother, tauter appearance.
TIME
Over the course of a few months, the sutures dissolve and stimulate collagen production, which lifts and repairs the skin, creates additional volume, and reduces the appearance of scars, fine lines, wrinkles, folds, and indentations.

THREADS NECK LIFT
AND FACE LIFT
Threads can provide natural-looking facial rejuvenation for clients who do not want or need a full surgical facelift or neck lift. In this procedure, Dr. Gujjar uses barbed Threads to gently lift the facial skin to a new elevation point, restoring a more taut and youthful appearance.It’s here that Dr. Gujjar’s skill and artistry are critical to obtaining great results. He knows precisely how to place and pull the threads in such a way that they don’t pinch or overlap, and he uses just the right number of threads to achieve a natural look. After applying the main threads, he then uses smaller needles loaded with smooth baby threads to plump and build collagen in key places.
This same-day, in-office procedure offers immediate results that improve even more in 6 to 12 weeks as the threads dissolve and collagen rebuilds.
PROCEDURE DETAILS
THREADS TO TREAT ACNE SCARS
Threads are an excellent option for treating a wide range of acne scarring. After performing a laser treatment to address redness, Dr. Gujjar uses smooth Threads made from a very fine, thread-like material and applies them using thin needles. This application technique creates a kind of crosshatched “scaffold” just underneath the skin of the face or body.THREADS FOR LIP ENHANCEMENT
Dr. Gujjar often includes Threads in lip augmentation treatments to complement lip fillers. For this procedure, Dr. Gujjar inserts tiny, corkscrew-shaped Threads directly into the lips. These twisted threads lift and evert the lips, giving them enhanced definition that can last up to 6 to 9 months. The results are subtle and natural-looking.HOW LONG DO THREADS LAST?
Threads stay in place for about 4 to 6 months. As they dissolve, new collagen is formed, which lifts and tightens tissue and improves the texture of the skin. Many patients enjoy their results for a year or more. Results vary depending on the type and number of PDO threads used, your body’s unique response to the treatment, and your commitment to your aftercare regimen.

I have been seeing Dr. Gujjar since 2022 & I am really happy to have found a doctor I can trust. I’m from Russia and it was difficult to find a trust worthy Doctor away from your country. He is very professional, intelligent & absolutely fantastic at his art of aesthetics. My lip filler went wrong & I was scared to trust any Doctor in mumbai. But I’m glad I found him. The only Dr I trust with my fillers & Botox. He’s a magician. I can’t thank him enough. If you’re looking for best Dr to enhance your face than Dr Sagar Gujjar is the one. And don’t miss out on their Hydra Facial. And yes Skinwood staff is really very welcoming and knowledgeable. Kudos to the team 💫 Home away from Home.

I have had a great experience with skinwood so far they are extremely deserving of a 5 - star rating for their upscaled and an innovative approach to skin care. One of the preferred personnels who works for Skinwood is Pooja Bhatt. She’s absolutely phenomenal at her job for various reasons. One of the main reasons is that - she’s absolutely soft spoken and patient. She also is seamlessly able to module between a gentle to a not pressured touch over the skin based on the equipment she’s handling, that owes credit to her experience i believe. Overall, Great experience!

I’ve been visiting Skinwood clinic since a year, and honestly I’m so happy with Dr Sagar and its team. I’m so happy with my Nose thread’s results. Dr Sagars treatment has shown remarkable differences. I’ve been to many dermatologists but failed to get the results. Dr & his team listened to my concerns and offer me the treatment accordingly. No extra pushing. And their staff 👏 super professional and kind.
Must visit skinwood for your aesthetic concern & facials. And they have the best & most upgraded technology.
Luxury for a reason

Dr. Sagar Gujjar is legit the best! I've been to a bunch of dermatologists, and nobody really got what was up with my skin. But Dr. Sagar? Dude knows his stuff. He took the time to break it all down for me, no rushing, just chill vibes.
My skin's looking way better now, and here's the deal – no fake promises, just real, practical solutions. Even when I moved to Bangalore, these guys are still my go-to. The whole team's got my back whenever I've got an issue.
Big shoutout to Laxmi at the front desk – always polite, always helping out. This clinic is on another level when it comes to ethics. Seriously, if you're in Mumbai and need a derm, this is the spot. Mad respect to Dr. Sagar and the team
