Face lift with thread is one of the very practical and safe beauty methods that can be an alternative to face lift surgery; An alternative that is much more economical than surgery and that it has a very fast healing and recovery process.
A thread face lift is a non-invasive alternative to face lift surgery. In face lift surgery, part of the skin on both sides of the face is pulled back and the excess skin is removed and then sutured. In the treatment process of thread lift, using fine needles of face lift thread that is injected under the tissue of the parts of the face that need to be strengthened and lifted.
The lift thread remains under the skin and causes the formation of new fibrous strands in the skin that form and stimulate collagen. Threads inserted under the skin, in addition to lifting, stimulate the substances in the second layer of the skin (dermis layer) and increase the production of these substances. One of the most important substances effective in the beauty of the skin is the collagen in the dermis layer. In this way, the threads increase the production of collagen and thus eliminate the effects of aging such as wrinkles and dry skin.
Collagen protein fibers repair wounds, give endurance to skin tissue, reduce facial lines and lines, increase hydration, and finally, all these actions make your skin fresh and younger by about 80%.
Around the area where the facial thread has been lifted, the skin tissue becomes firm and strong, and by increasing the elasticity and elasticity of the skin tissue, sagging of the face is prevented.
If you are facing sagging skin on your face, one of the best non-invasive methods to solve your problems is face lift with threads. The jawline and cheekbones, the eyebrow line, the area under the eyes, the forehead and the cheeks are parts of the face that are used to lift or increase the strength of the facial thread lift treatment.
Types of face lift threads
Usually, the threads that we have introduced in the section below are used for skin lifting.
Cog thread
Kag thread is one of the threads used in face lifting; In this method, no trace of the thread is left and the recovery time is very short, and the desired result is reached very quickly.
pdo thread
pdo thread is another effective thread in this rejuvenation process; As soon as this thread enters the tissues of the body, it causes fibroblast cells to gather and grow. The location of these threads is between the dermis layer and subcutaneous muscle fibers.
How long does a thread face lift last?
The results of injecting threads are immediately visible from the injection, and over time, with the reduction of swelling and bruising, you can see the effects of the lift more clearly. But in general, you will see the changes completely when the new fiber strands are formed and the collagenization process is well done, which may take a few weeks to three months.
Thread lift results are not permanent. The effect of thread lift remains in the skin from 6 months to 1 year. Like other dissolvable dermal fillers such as Botox and gel, the threads used in this procedure are eventually absorbed by the tissue beneath your skin.
Does face lift with thread hurt?
Considering that in a thread lift, the stitches pull back and smooth the skin, you might imagine that this treatment is extremely painful. But you should know that there is nothing to worry about, because the threads are usually placed under the skin using local anesthesia, so patients do not feel much.
Tiny needles (similar in size to Botox needles) are also used to inject anesthetic drugs that numb the surrounding skin. For this reason, you will experience mild pain during your treatment. However, regardless of whether local anesthetics are used during the lift, some people may experience pain during or after the procedure.
