From Botox to Thread Lift Why Monalisa Drives Four Hours to See Dr. Turk
“My first procedure with him was Botox and a little filler…I really wanted more lip filler than would have looked good. He recommended a different amount he thought would look better. He doesn’t overdo it.
I had a threadlift with him, and he’s very gentle…It’s a 4-hour drive to Dr. Turk from where I live, but it’s worth a day’s trip. He was very gentle. I barely had any bruising or swelling. He takes his time; it took 15 years off my face.
I’ve been a patient for more than 5 years. I would not want to see another doctor.” — Monalisa
Elite Threadlift Techniques, Tailored to You
Dr. Turk doesn’t use a one-size-fits-all approach. Your treatment may include a custom combination of advanced types of thread lifts — each one chosen to achieve precise, natural results.
Smooth Threads: Creates a supportive mesh beneath the skin to soften lines, improve tone, and add subtle volume where needed.
Twist Threads: Targets folds and deeper wrinkles without the bulk of dermal fillers — ideal for refining problem areas with surgical-level finesse.
Barbed Threads: Designed to lift and anchor sagging tissue. These threads help define cheekbones, sharpen the jawline, and tighten the upper neck.
Every procedure is done with local anesthesia and takes about 20 minutes.
Who’s a Candidate for a Thread Lift?
You may be a strong candidate for a thread lift if you’re noticing early signs of aging, like skin laxity around the cheeks, jawline, or brows, but aren’t ready for cosmetic surgery. This treatment is also popular among patients who want to extend the results of a past facelift without another operation.
Ideal candidates:
- Are in their 30s to early 60s
- Have mild to moderate sagging in the treated area
- Want to stimulate collagen production naturally
- Prefer subtle, gradual results with minimal downtime
Dr. Turk will review your goals and skin condition in detail to determine if PDO threads are the right fit, or if a different approach might work better.

“Dr. Turk is an artist”
“Visiting Dr Turk has always been the most professional experience. The office is inviting. The staff is wonderful and Dr. Turk is an artist who, unlike many, feels restraint is always a good idea. Terrific doctor.” — Michele J, 5-star review
Not Sure If a Thread Lift Is the Right Fit? You Have Other Options
If a thread lift isn’t the best match for your goals or skin condition, our offices in Lenox Hill and Woodbury offer several alternatives that may be more suitable:
- FaceTite: A minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and reduce fat, offering results comparable to a facelift without extensive surgery.
- Morpheus8: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and firmness.
- EZ Gel: An autologous bio-stimulating gel derived from your own blood, promoting natural collagen production and skin rejuvenation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a thread lift painful?
Most patients report mild discomfort during the procedure. A local anesthetic is used to minimize this side effect throughout.
How long do results last?
Results typically last 12 to 18 months, depending on your age, skin quality, and how your body responds to the threads.
What are the side effects?
Minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness can occur but usually resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when performed by an experienced provider like Dr. Turk.
