The procedure of thread lifting, or thread lifting, has firmly taken its place in the list of anti-aging procedures that a woman wants to have, and this is understandable. The thread lift does not injure the tissue and does not leave scars and scars, since the threads are inserted under the skin through micro-punctures with the help of special thin needles, it does not require rehabilitation in the hospital, it is carried out for an hour and under local anesthesia.
Of course, the cosmetologist selects and appoints the threads for the thread lifting, but it is also important for the patient to understand why the specialist dwells on a particular product. Let's look at which threads are presented today in the cosmetology market and what is their advantage.
Types of threads for thread lifting
All threads for suspenders are divided into two main groups: absorbable and non-absorbable. The former are permanently stored in tissues (for example, gold or platinum threads, Spring Thread threads (Spring Trade)), the second ones are biodegradable after 1-1.5 years (for example, caprolactone threads).
Several manufacturers of absorbable sutures are represented on the Russian market: Dermafil Happy Lift (Dermafil Happy Lift), Silhouette Soft (Silhouette Soft), etc.
The most common material from which absorbable sutures are made, including - caprolactone. It has been used by surgeons for many years during operations and has proven its absolute safety. However, unlike surgical, caprolactone for thread lifting has a longer resorption period: from 8 months to 2 years, it all depends on the thickness of the thread and the individual characteristics of the patient. It is noteworthy that even after the resorption of caprolactone filaments, the lifting effect does not disappear: being in the tissues, the filaments stimulate the active synthesis of collagen, which forms a skeleton and tightens the tissue, smoothness and elasticity return to the skin.
Another criterion is the configuration of cosmetic threads. Here you can distinguish smooth and textured threads along the entire length of which there are special protrusions (notches, cones, etc.). The notches are needed so that the thread is firmly fixed in the tissues and does not move with time, due to this the maximum lifting effect is achieved. So, for example, along the entire length of the Happy Elevator threads, the notches are located “herringbone”. Thanks to this, the threads are very firmly fixed in the tissues, any possibility of their displacement is excluded and increase the effect of lifting and revitalization. Due to these properties, cosmetologists and plastic surgeons call incised threads a real alternative to surgical lifting.
Not many people know, but the threads for tightening cope not only with the problem of drooping facial tissues, but also with a wide range of other aesthetic problems, not only of the face but also of the body. Depending on the caliber, length, density and direction and location of the notches, they solve the following problems:
- Fuzzy oval face.
- Omission of the zygomatic part, cheeks, edges of the eyebrows.
- Double chin.
- Pronounced nasolabial folds.
- Deep wrinkles (purses, wrinkles “barcodes”).
- Flabby, atonic, aging skin.
Some manufacturers also produce highly specialized threads. Nose thread is intended for non-surgical remodeling of the nose shape, Boca thread to correct the shape of the lips, and Vaginal Narrower - the thread to eliminate pelvic floor muscle weakness, shown to women after childbirth.
Now you know about the features of threads for thread lifting and what a thread pull is. Remember: it is necessary to take responsibility for the choice of a doctor and which he recommends.
