The distinction that matters is depth. Thread lifting and ultrasound devices tighten existing tissue and last months to a couple of years. A surgical facelift lifts the SMAS, the fibrous layer under the skin that actually carries facial sag, and excises the skin left over. That is why the result lasts years rather than seasons.
Long-term follow-up studies put durable benefit in the range of a decade, with patient satisfaction outlasting what photographs show. The technique used matters less to longevity than most marketing suggests.
Threads tighten the tissue you have and last months to a couple of years. A facelift repositions the layer beneath and removes skin. The choice is decided by how much loose skin there is, not by budget or downtime.
