Thelast frontier of the beauty face in terms of facial contouring is absolutely surgery free (no operating room, no anesthesia, no cuts, no hospital stay, no after-effects, and especially no risks). Let’s talk about facial traction wires.
Resorbable threads are the latest treatment for noninvasive facial rejuvenation, restoring tension to regions that show sagging (retensioning effect) and stimulating collagen production by the skin’s fibroblasts(biorestructuring effect).
Modern aesthetic threads are made of totally resorbable materials: therefore biocompatible and free of the risks of definitive materials.
Several substances well known in Medicine, such as lactic acid, glycolic acid and others, are used in their construction. These substances are fully reabsorbed over time, but not before exerting their retensioning and biorestructuring action. Such threads, along their course, have anchor cones that are also resorbable.
How to use resorbable threads for the face
There are two main uses:
- They can be implanted to reposition facial tissues that show early sagging, such as the jaw rim and neck;
- They can be placed diffusely in the face and neck to take advantage not so much of the retensioning effect but of the biorestructuring effect related to the formation of new collagen.
How the insertion of wires into the face takes place
The treatment involves a procedure under local anesthesia, on an outpatient basis, requiring no hospitalization, lasting about 30 minutes.
Local anesthesia is given at the entry and exit points of the wires, which are then inserted and placed absolutely painlessly in the affected areas.
At the end of the treatment, the skin will be somewhat red and it is advisable to apply ice for 24 hours. No stitches or dressings of any kind are needed. From the next day you will be able to return to your daily activities.
Results persist for up to 12 months after treatment, strictly dependent on lifestyle, sun exposure and skin quality. However, it is recommended that you undertake a course of skin care to maintain the benefits of the treatment for as long as possible
To whom is the facial cosmetic thread procedure recommended?
The best candidates are patients who show the first signs of sagging facial skin, usually in the lower area (jaw and neck) and cheek area.
Before the procedure, it is necessary to carefully evaluate:
- The quality and elasticity of the skin;
- The extent of subsidence;
- The thickness of facial tissues before undergoing treatment.
It is also possible to combine treatment with resorbable threads with other minimally invasive surgery and aesthetic medicine procedures: frequently performed in combination with botulinum toxin in the upper part of the face, microlipofilling in the central region, and Internal Radiofrequency Necktite in the lower part and neck.
