EMBEDDED THREADS (LIFTING THREADS)

Threads can very effectively lift and tighten sagging skin tissue, stimulate collagen, treat wrinkles and loss of volume.

It is an effective technique for patients who do not wish to undergo a surgical lifting operation.

The procedure takes around 45-90 minutes, is easy and absolutely painless thanks to the local anaesthetic applied on the treatment area.

Areas that can be treatable with threads:

• Face (facial contour, cheekbones)
• Neck
• Body (thighs, abdomen, buttocks, breast etc.)

The product used is Polyactic acid threads with hooks (?) which are inserted in the required area and pull and stretch the skin. The threads remain implanted in the skin, without being visible and are absorbable. The final result can last between 1-1,5 years, depending on the patient’s age and quality of the skin and the material of the threads.

It is a very safe procedure and complications are only minor, including temporary bruising, swelling and topical slight ache, which subside over a period of 3-7 days.
