q I’m 65 years old but I look younger, except for my drooping neck! What I can do?
TO Seek advice from an honest doctor, as there will come a point where non-surgical treatments can no longer help.
Additionally, some (including the one reviewed here) prevent you from having a neck lift for at least a year.
That said, cosmetic doctor Dr Sarah Tonks (thelovelyclinic.co.uk) is a big fan of the Aptos thread lift for early neck sagging.
“These particular threads are made of a very strong and flexible material,” he says.

“They provide a really good lift and then dissolve over time while visibly increasing collagen production.”
Under local anesthesia, five barbed threads are injected into each side of your neck bone (surprisingly, it’s not painful) and you’ll see it tighten immediately.
There may be some swelling or bruising for a week afterward. It charges £2,195 for the procedure (it will be less outside London – email info@aptosthreads.uk for your nearest clinic). Results last 18 to 24 months.
