Thread face lift

What is Thread and what are its treatments? 

Thread lifts represent an innovative and minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that effectively rejuvenates and tightens sagging skin. There are different types of threads that can be used for different procedures, each with its own unique features and benefits. For example, mono or screw threads are used to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture and create volume which is used for wrinkle removal and also skin rejuvenation, while cone or barbed threads are used to provide a more dramatic lift and repositioning of the skin. The threads can be inserted in different patterns and directions to achieve the desired effect, and multiple threads may be used in a single treatment to achieve a more comprehensive lift or effect. By employing specialized biocompatible threads, such as PDO, PLA, or PLLA, this technique not only provides immediate lifting effects but also promotes long-term skin improvement through collagen stimulation as the threads dissolve over time.

Key Benefits of Thread Lifts:

• Minimally Invasive: The procedure requires only small needles for insertion, resulting in reduced trauma compared to traditional surgical methods.
• Collagen Stimulation: As the threads dissolve, they encourage the body’s natural collagen production, enhancing skin texture and firmness.
• Customizable Approach: The type and placement of threads can be tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals, making it suitable for various areas of the face and body.
