Why would you need Thread Lift?
As we age, a loss of collagen and elastin in our skin can lead to looser facial skin and the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and creases. Losing this protein, combined with a natural loss of fat on the face, can hollow the upper cheeks and create heaviness above the jawline and around the chin giving a tired and aged look. A Thread Lift Treatment can focus on the areas of concern and add fullness lifting sagging tissue.
What is a Thread Lift?
Thread Lift Treatments are sometimes referred to as ‘non-surgical facelifts‘, it is a non-invasive treatment that lifts sagging or ageing areas of the face without the need for a general anaesthetic or a stay in a hospital. The treatment is carried out using a local anaesthetic and can take as little as half an hour, with patients being able to return home or go back to work after a short while. Thread Lifting is a revolutionary treatment which tackles signs of ageing without the use of any incisions or surgery. Anchoring sutures are placed under the skin using a very fine needle and they elevate sagging tissue and lift problem areas.
All of the Threads we use are biodegradable and biocompatible, they are all effective in lifting areas of your face and wrinkle removal through self-stimulation of cells. There is no interruption to your day to day life after the treatment or a need to go back to the treatment centre as they are all fully dissolved in your body after one and up to two years.
Derma PDO Thread – Twist
The Derma Thread ‘Twist’ is designed as twisted pairs of the mono thread that accelerate stronger stimulation into dermal layer to form more collagen. Twisted PDO is thicker and stronger than single fibres so the effect for lifting skin is more powerful than the mono PDO thread. These threads are effective in facial lifting and wrinkle removal through self-stimulation of cells.
Derma PDO Thread – Mono
PDO Derma Threads are a ‘non-surgical’ face and neck lift treatment. The procedure uses dissolvable PDO (Polydioxanone) threads which are made of a soluble material and have been used in medicine for many years, mainly in surgery. PDO relaxes muscles and tendons while stimulating the production of new collagen in the skin. PDO also stimulates the production of elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin, vital for creating younger looking skin. These threads are effective in facial lifting and wrinkle removal through self-stimulation of cells.
3d Cog Derma PDO Thread
The PDO thread lift gently lifts and repositions tissues that have dropped, resulting in a younger, more youthful looking appearance. Cheeks appear fuller, while your skin is lifted and wrinkles are removed. The 3D Cog is a revolutionary embedding Polydioxanone suture and ligature thread, with cogs and barbs formed during manufacture.
How does a Thread Lift Treatment work?
Very fine sutures are inserted into the chosen area where they are anchored into stable positions by using very light pressure. Absorbable, bidirectional cones attached to the sutures grasp and lift soft tissues to ease sagging and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines.
The principal component of a thread is PLA (polylactic acid) or PDO (Polydioxanone) which naturally encourages the body’s own production of collagen, producing a further fuller appearance to the skin over time. Your sutures will naturally dissolve in about 12 – 24 months. The main component of threads is biocompatible and is naturally absorbed by your body. It is used in a range of medical treatments ranging from screws for bone fractures to new biodegradable stent trials.
Where can the Thread Lift Treatment be used?
The threads lift treatment can focus on the lower jaw and chin, cheeks and cheekbones, eyebrows and ‘crow feet lines’, forehead, neck and décolleté, shoulder, hip and stomach areas.
What will I experience after my Thread Lift Treatment?
Downtime after a Thread Lift treatment is minimal. You may experience some mild tension in the areas that have been treated and some very slight bruising in the days following your treatment. In some cases, bunching or irregularity of the skin may appear at the entry points of the sutures, but this is normally minimal and subsides within a week. Dr Quandt will give you individual advice to aid a quick recovery.
Am I suitable for a Thread Lift Treatment?
Thread Lift treatments are normally recommended for those who are tackling moderate signs of ageing. Patients will be seeking more of a dramatic difference than fillers would give but without the trauma of a full facelift. The treatment is suitable for all skin types, but those who are allergic or sensitive to bio-materials are advised to speak to their doctor as the procedure could cause a reaction. Your consultation with Dr Quandt will give you time to discuss any allergies, and she will advise you if the treatment is safe and effective for your needs.
How long will the Thread Lifting Bristol Treatment results last?
The results can be seen immediately and the length of time the treatment lasts for varies from patient to patient, results can last up to 18 months.
Do I need to do anything before a Thread Lift Treatment?
There is no special preparation needed before a Thread Lift Treatment. During your consultation, Dr Quandt will discuss any treatments you have undergone, any allergies you have and your medical background. This is to ensure the treatment is suitable for you.
What should I do after a Thread Lift Treatment?
You may experience some slight swelling, bruising or redness immediately after your treatment and this will subside on its own after a few days. We advise avoiding facial massages, beauty treatments and dental work in the week following the treatment. Contact sport and excessive exercise is not advised for the first few weeks following a treatment. Dr Quandt will advise you of any specific requirements during your recovery period but as the thread cones do not need to be removed as they naturally dissolve, you do not require any further treatment to remove them.
Is a Thread Lift Treatment safe?
Your safety and final results depend entirely on the skill of the doctor performing it. Providing you work with an experienced medical practitioner, Thread Lifting is a highly safe treatment with proven results and success. The main substance of the treatment is natural, biocompatible, and fully absorbable. Suture lifts are performed under local anaesthetic, meaning no sedation is necessary. Dr Quandt has 2 decades of experience in carrying out non-surgical facelifts and Skin Forever Young has 2 treatment centres available in Whitchurch and Stoke Gifford in Bristol.
The non-invasive nature of thread lifting means that it works perfectly alongside some other rejuvenation treatments. A common example is the use of dermal fillers alongside a silhouette lift to help restore volume in shallow areas. Dr Quandt has a friendly approach where she will listen to your concerns, offering you appropriate treatments, benefits and any associated risks.
