Types of face lift thread, PDO thread lift has many applications in face and body thread lift and is a type of therapeutic thread that stretches and tightens loose and sagging skin tissues. PDO lifting thread, which is also called lifting thread, enters deep into the skin layer and changes skin textures. PDO thread lift is a simple procedure that involves lifting the skin with stitches. Patients can benefit from benefits such as minimal downtime (rest), no scars, and fewer complications after surgery. In this article, we are going to introduce you to this model of lifting thread and its application and implementation in face lift.
Rejuvenation threads have the effect of stimulating collagen to improve skin laxity. These prescriptions are applied under the skin by the doctor using the T Chinese acupuncture method and stimulate the effect of collagen formation in the skin. There are different types of rejuvenating threads that have improved over time and are divided into first generation, second generation and third generation versions.
As mentioned in the explanation above, the threads will have the effect of rejuvenating and stimulating collagen, so that after the injection of these properties under your skin, after anesthesia for about two to three years, it will stimulate the skin like a thread under your skin. They do it to keep themselves firmer and younger. Usually, in the Iranian market, the price of mono thread is between 50,000 tomans and 100,000 tomans. Your doctor usually chooses the number of mono threads according to the extent of the need. The number used is usually more than the next generation versions, about 5 to 10 pieces.
In addition to having the effect of stimulating collagen, like gels or fillers, they have the property of filling hollow areas on the face. For example, instead of injecting gel in laugh lines, we can use screw or twisted threads. These threads are more expensive than mono threads. The approximate price for each thread in the Iranian market is about 150 thousand to 200 thousand tomans.
These versions are considered to be one of the most advanced types of face lift threads. In addition to rejuvenating, filling, these versions also have the ability to stretch and lift the skin. In such a way that after implanting thread lift in the sagging or loose part of the skin, such as sagging skin around the mouth, this sagging can be fixed and a beautiful appearance and stretched skin can be restored on the person’s face.
PDO thread lift is a type of thread for face lift, which is a treatment that stretches and tightens using threads made of polydioxanone. The lifting thread is inserted deep into the skin layer and leaves three effects:
Immediate lifting of the skin through mechanical effects,
Cell renewal through stimulation of collagen and new blood vessels to improve texture, fine lines and wrinkles.
Tightening of the skin by bringing the tissues closer together.
The threads are destroyed after six months through hydrolysis. Stretched facial lines (contours) may remain for up to two years due to the effects of cellular rejuvenation.
PDO thread treatment is safe and has very few side effects.
This effective, non-surgical facelift option is suitable for many adults who want injections and want an immediate facelift without the need for surgery. The use of PDO thread lift is performed using polydioxanone (PDO) threads in the treatment areas; These threads are placed under the skin through a small needle or cannula. No incisions are made in this method. PDO threads are left under the skin until they eventually dissolve. They stimulate the body to naturally produce more collagen to tighten the skin. These threads also grip the skin and pull it up and hold it in place.
Although this method has received many positive reviews, many still remember the original thread lift that was introduced in the late 90s, but the operation has improved by leaps and bounds since then. This method has much less complications and creates a subtle but visible lift in the facial skin. Unlike the procedure done in the 1990s, the threads are now absorbable, minimizing any side effects of a PDO thread lift.
Different types of face lift threads offer different benefits. For example, barbed threads are used to lift the skin, while twisted threads are used to add volume to areas such as the cheeks or deep lines such as lip and nose creases. Smooth threads can address problems such as lines around the lips and crow’s feet, and can also address areas with loose or thin skin. A thread lift is performed in one of the comfortable treatment rooms with local anesthesia for patients.
Once we have identified the appropriate areas on your face, the threads are inserted into precise locations with a small hollow needle. Because this procedure is done by injection, there is no need for cuts or deep incisions. Our technicians then gently pull the threads to move the skin. By tightening the lift, the needle is pulled out without leaving a scar. This process usually takes about an hour depending on the number of threads used.
