Dr Nish ShahPDO thread and non-surgical facelift specialist
I had PDO threads done, and from the very beginning the experience was excellent. The treatment itself was much more comfortable than I expected, it didn't hurt at all. I went back for my 7-week review, and I'm absolutely over the moon with the results.

Dr Nish is one of a kind in PDO thread lift! I had my first treatment two years ago and I am impressed with the results and that they get even better each time. This is because of Dr Nish's expertise, care and grace which I experience every single time I visit the clinic.

I had my PDO thread lift at this clinic and I am incredibly satisfied with the results. The consultation is very thorough and the results are fantastic but what has impressed me even more is the aftercare. The clinic manager and the doctor are always at hand to speak to me whenever I need.

I had a lot of facial sagging, especially on my neck, so I went to Dr Nish to do the PDO thread lift. The loose skin on my neck and face disappeared and I looked about 10 years younger. My skin went back into place. This treatment really works.

After a very very bad experience with PDO threads from a different aesthetics company, he reassured me that I was in the best hands and that it would be almost pain-free with great results. Well what can I say, he delivered 100%.

Had a lovely initial consultation for PDO threads with the doctor which was so informative. I have had consultations before but this was entirely different. I decided to go ahead the following week and Dr Nish really didn't disappoint. I was comfortable throughout and am so happy with the results.

I had a thread lift. He gives you local anaesthetic which, to be honest, is the most painful part! After that, pretty much didn't feel a thing, and the results are noticeable immediately. Unbelievable! I am so happy. Worth every penny.

Dr Nish is such a lovely person, we can't praise him enough. He takes his time with you so you don't feel you're being rushed out. Both myself and my partner had threads done, and we love it, it makes such a difference and we feel back to our old selves again.

How it works
1
Your questions
Leave your details or message us on WhatsApp, and the clinic will call you back to talk through anything you want to know.
2
Your consultation
You spend 30 minutes with Dr Nish Shah at the clinic. He looks at your face, shows you what has dropped, and tells you if threads will work, how many you'd need and where.
3
The lift
The threads go in through a few tiny entry points under local anaesthetic, and Dr Nish Shah lifts each side while you watch. It takes 30 to 60 minutes. You might be a bit swollen for a couple of days, but most people are back at work the next day.
4
Your check-up
You go home with aftercare notes and Dr Nish Shah's direct number, and he sees you again after 4 weeks. The threads dissolve over 6 to 9 months, and the new collagen they leave behind keeps the lift going long after they've gone.
BeforeAfter
Dr Nish reassured me that I was in the best hands and that it would be almost pain-free with great results. Well what can I say, he delivered 100%.
If yours isn't here, call the clinic on 020 4539 8817 and ask before you book.
Will I look pulled or different?
No. Threads lift your own skin back to where it used to be, so you look rested, not different. Dr Nish Shah adjusts each side while you watch in the mirror and stops when it looks like you.
Does it hurt?
You have a local anaesthetic, so you'll feel some pressure but not pain. You might be tender and a bit swollen for a couple of days, and paracetamol is enough for that. Lots of the reviews above say how little they felt.
How long is the recovery?
Most people are back at work the next day. You might have some swelling, tenderness or a small bruise for a couple of days. For two weeks, avoid the gym, facial massages, the dentist and opening your mouth very wide, and sleep on your back for the first three nights. There are no stitches and no scars.
How long does a thread lift last?
The lift lasts 12 to 18 months. The threads dissolve after 6 to 9 months, but they leave new collagen behind, which is why the lift lasts longer than the threads. At your 4-week check-up, Dr Nish Shah will tell you if and when a top-up is worth it.
Am I suitable?
Threads work best when skin has dropped, like jowls, lower cheeks or a softer jawline. If there's a lot of loose skin, surgery may do more than threads can. You'd also need to wait if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, have a skin infection, have very thin skin, or take blood thinners. Dr Nish Shah checks all of this at your consultation.
What if I have a concern after my treatment?
Call Dr Nish Shah. You leave with his direct number, and he deals with any concern himself rather than passing you to reception. The clinic is fully insured for thread lifts, and your 4-week check-up is included.
How much does a PDO thread lift cost in London?
At Medisha Clinic in Mayfair, it's £750 for one area, £1,500 for two and £1,995 for the full face and neck. The price includes your 4-week check-up and aftercare, and you're never charged per thread.
