Face lift with PDO collagen thread
Facial skin lifting is done with different threads. One of the most requested and popular threads used in face lift is collagen thread.
With age, the production of collagen and elastin decreases, gradually the facial skin becomes loose and sagging. To put it simply, aging causes your facial skin to lose its freshness. With the advancement of medical science, various methods have been introduced to restore youthful vitality to your face. Definitely one of the most reliable and best methods of treating wrinkles and smoothing facial skin in middle age is rejuvenation and face lift with collagen thread.
What are the characteristics of collagen thread and who is it suitable for?
The collagen thread is the same PDO thread that we briefly mentioned on the thread face lift page. PDO collagen thread is also known as mono thread. The best absorbable threads for plastic surgery are these collagen-forming threads. By stimulating the fibroblasts of the dermis layer, this thread encourages the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. After 3 weeks, this thread will be completely absorbed by the body and will not leave any traces, but the firm and firm repair tissue they have made will lift your facial skin.
But face lift using collagen threads is recommended for people who have corrected their facial dimples with hyaluronic fillers and filled the skin’s hyaluronic reservoirs with Profilo (pure hyaluronic, which is the primary ingredient for collagen production). In these people, you can see the best result of face lift with thread.
As we mentioned earlier, collagen-forming thread or PDO threads are absorbable suture threads, and after 6 to 8 months, they are absorbed by the body. Due to the high quality of the collagen thread used in Dr. Ghazi’s clinic, the durability of the face lift by this thread is about 2 years. But we recommend you to renew once a year to maintain the freshness and vitality of your skin.
Normally, 20 PDO threads or collagen threads are used in a face lift with collagen thread in four axes (jawline, jaw angle, laugh line and cheekbone). In this method, no pain is felt and the effects of the treatment will be fully evident after 2 weeks.
