What is Thread Lift (Face Lift) ?
If you have been following the latest trends of facelift, most doctors and clients are moving away from conventional surgical facelift to a more minimally invasive procedure – the Thread Lift.
Basically, a face-lifting procedure is done to restore a firmer youthful complexion, which removes unwanted wrinkles and facial sagginess as age advances.
Compared to a conventional surgical face-lift, this procedure is minimally invasive, can be done without anesthesia and the downtime is minimal. Thus it is gaining popularity worldwide. With this being said, appropriate patient selection and the types of thread used are crucial to ensure excellent results.
What Are Benefit Of Thread Lift ?
If you’re considering a thread lift, there are several benefits that may be appealing to you. First of all, a thread lift is much less invasive than a traditional facelift. With a thread lift, your surgeon will simply insert thin threads into your skin in order to Lift loose or sagging skin. This can provide you with a more youthful appearance without the need for extensive surgery.
There are many benefits to having a thread lift, including:
• Reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
• Improved skin texture and tone
• Reduced sagging of the mid-face
• Minimal invasiveness with no cutting or surgical incisions required
• Fast recovery time – you can usually resume your normal activities within a few days
Who Is Suitable For Thread Lift Treatment in Malaysia?
There is no strict age group for this procedure, as the selection depends on the preexisting skin elasticity and the expectation of the client. However, most are aged between 30-60.
How Does A Thread Lift Work?
Thread lifting is a minimally invasive way to lift and firm the skin by targeting specific areas. A doctor will use a needle to insert a thread made of PDO (polydioxanone), which is a material that is commonly used in surgery because it dissolves over time. The thread will then be pulled taunt, which causes the skin to lift and firm.
The great thing about thread lifting is that it’s non-surgical, which means there is little to no downtime required. Additionally, because the threads dissolve over time, there is no need for additional procedures once the threads are removed. And since it’s such a targeted procedure, you can focus on specific areas that you’d like to see improvement.
