Lift sagging skin and redefine your facial contours instantly with this non-surgical procedure that boosts collagen production.
Thread lifts are non-surgical aesthetic applications that utilize developing technology to achieve facial rejuvenation. Specially manufactured sutures (threads) are inserted subcutaneously through simple application techniques, providing lifting, recovery, and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles.
Numbing: The application site is numbed using anesthetic creams or through injections with very fine-tipped needles.
Insertion: The sutures are inserted subcutaneously (under the skin) via special cannulas or specialized tips.
Thread Types: The sutures used may be smooth, barbed (spiny/ragged), or conical, depending on the specific application site and the lifting needs of the patient.
Anticoagulants (Blood Thinners): If you are using anticoagulant medication (blood thinners), you should inform your doctor. These medications can increase bleeding, leading to more swelling and bruises than estimated following the application.
Supplements/Vitamins: Inform your physician about all medications, nutritional supplements, and slimming teas, as some have blood-thinning effects.
Allergies: Please definitely inform your physician if you have any allergy toward any substance or medication.
Skin Health: If you have any cold sores (herpes) or active inflammatory wounds on your face, the application should be postponed until these lesions are completely healed.
Note on Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: The original text contained information about Botox, not thread lifts. Since threads are generally absorbable sutures, the concerns differ. Always consult a specialist regarding any cosmetic procedure during these times.
How long does the suture thread lift application last? The thread lift application lasts for ten to thirty minutes.
Is the suture thread lift application painful? (Note: This was a question without an answer in your original text.) No, the procedure is typically not painful, as the application site is thoroughly numbed using anesthetic cream or local anesthetic injections prior to the threads being inserted.
Can the effect of the suture thread lift be seen just after the application? Yes, a lifting effect can often be seen immediately after the application.
How long does the activity (effect) of the suture thread lift persist? (Note: This was a question without an answer in your original text. The effect relies on both the threads and collagen stimulation.) The threads themselves are often absorbed by the body over 6 to 12 months. However, the lifting and rejuvenating effect stimulated by the threads, which relies on the body’s collagen production, can persist for 1 to 2 years before a touch-up is needed.
Following the suture thread lift, when can the patient return to the social life and professional life? Slight redness and swelling may occur after the procedure. These common complaints usually heal within three to seven days, after which the patient can return to social and professional life.
Can a thread lift alone completely rejuvenate the face? A thread lift is an ideal rejuvenation method if you have only mild to moderate sagging and minimal deep wrinkles. If you have deep wrinkles and major volume collapses, these issues should be eliminated using dermal filler applications in combination with the thread lift for optimal results.
