Effects and types of thread lifts

Thread lift is a cosmetic procedure that involves the lifting and repositioning of sagging facial fat to a higher position. As we age, the degeneration of the aponeurosis can cause fat accumulation in the face, leading to sagging skin and facial lines. This condition is known as aponeurotic ptosis.
Thread lift works by directly lifting and repositioning the drooping fat, which helps to improve the sagging of nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and other facial lines. Different types of threads can be used during the procedure, and some can promote the production of collagen, which increases firmness and shine.
It's important to note that thread lift does not provide semi-permanent results with a single treatment. Once the threads have dissolved, the skin will gradually return to its original state. There are several types of thread, some with barbs and some with mesh. It is important to pay close attention to the material and characteristics of the thread type when selecting a thread type, it is important to pay attention to the material, characteristics, duration of the procedure, and possible discomfort. Therefore, it's crucial to choose the right type of thread for plastic surgical needs.
