History of thread lifting with mesothreads

This technique for correcting age-related changes in various parts of the body is the result of the developments of specialists from Korea. They used all the strengths of modern technology and traditional acupuncture methods.

It is known that our body contains 14 main energy channels, which are also called meridians. They travel throughout the body, connecting organ systems, limbs, face and torso into one large structure. For example, when a person always suffers from stress, lives in a city with negative environmental conditions, and organizes his diet incorrectly, these energy channels seem to become clogged. As a result, problems begin with the circulation of energy throughout the body, and because of this, a person gets sick, ages, and feels exhausted. To improve the situation, experienced acupuncturists “cleanse” the problematic meridian using special needles.

Important ! Such an effect activates the body’s own resources for regeneration and rejuvenates. Everyone knows this procedure - it is also called acupuncture.

Threadlifting originates from acupuncture methods

In European countries, face lifting using mesothreads takes place largely without taking into account the passage of meridians. In other words, doctors are not using the full potential of this technology. Experts from eastern countries prefer to pierce the skin at specified points, and the threads are placed taking into account the position of the meridians. They are confident that this will have a positive effect on sagging skin - it will not only tighten it, but also carry out internal rejuvenation by activating natural processes.

It is worth noting ! In Korea, a person who wants to perform a lift using mesothreads must undergo complex training that lasts 9 years.

Application area

The use of mesothreads is advisable for correcting small wrinkles in the lips and eyes, correcting drooping eyebrows, sagging and non-elastic skin, folds on the neck and décolleté.

Using mesothreads you can get rid of some problems

In other words, this technology can be used if there are such problems:

violations of facial symmetry;
age-related skin changes;
wrinkles;
problems with facial contours.

Natural collagen is formed, creating its own network that strengthens the tissue. Wrinkles are filled in. Over time, the thread placed under the skin dissolves, but the formed collagen is preserved.

The method promotes the active production of natural collagen

There is no need to be afraid if you have overly sensitive skin or increased susceptibility to pain. Before the manipulations, the specialist will administer local anesthesia with a special cream. The rehabilitation period is associated with the characteristics of the event.

Important ! If the effects were intense, swelling and bruising will appear, disappearing on their own within a couple of weeks.

What is mesothread - the principle of operation?

A mesothread lift (thread lift) tightens facial tissues that have sagged due to age-related changes. The thinnest needles are inserted under the skin, which secure absorbable threads made of polylactic acid (the so-called 3D lifting) or synthetic biodegradable materials into the tissues. They form an elastic frame that eliminates sagging tissue and stimulates muscle tone. After the material decomposes, a compaction is formed, which for some time serves as a strengthening frame for the skin.

The procedure combats age-related changes in the face, tightens sagging tissues that have lost elasticity, and smoothes deep folds on the face (for example, nasolabial folds). An additional effect is the effect of the thread coating. This is usually polyglycolic or polylactic acid, which stimulate the skin's production of elastin, promoting better hydration.

Specifics of the procedure

Unfortunately, rejuvenation through surgery is not suitable for every woman. In addition to the contraindications, many are put off by the need for long rehabilitation. However, you should not be upset, because modern cosmetology has developed many different techniques that will help you rejuvenate without radical intervention. One of these is correction using mesothreads that tighten the skin - thread lifting.

This procedure requires a short recovery period.

The purpose of this event is to tighten sagging skin and make facial contours clearer. Threadlifting involves the use of advanced rejuvenation technologies, which subsequently give a unique result. The essence of the event is the introduction of polydioxane fibers under the skin using special needles. Subsequently, they form certain structures that erase wrinkles and restore elasticity to the skin. In this case, further stretching is impossible.

Positive sides:

When correcting the shape of the face using polydioxane fibers, there is no need to use general anesthesia; the manipulations themselves take about forty minutes. In this case, specialists use local methods of pain relief. The person does not feel pain or discomfort.
Rehabilitation takes a couple of weeks, after this period you can return to your usual activities.
The threads used for the procedure do not cause any harm to the body, and there is no rejection.

The threads used are not rejected by the body
The client’s face remains beautiful, and this beauty is completely natural, facial features are not distorted.
After the manipulations, no scars remain; an ignorant person will not be able to notice traces of the procedure at all.
The results last for several years - up to five - and then you can have a lift again if you are unhappy with the condition of your skin.

Results last for several years

Invitation to discussion:

1. Recent years have been marked by an explosion of interest in a new minimally invasive technique for rejuvenating the face, neck and décolleté using smooth resorbable threads based on polydioxanone (PDO) - threadlifting using “mesothreads”.

2. It is announced that the mesothread technology allows one to achieve two results - lifting (lifting, correction of facial features) and improving the structure of the skin due to revitalizing and reinforcing effects. More about this below:

there is a significant difference between the term threadlifting in its classical sense (threads with micro-notches or cones are used for this purpose - Aptos, Silhouette Lift) and “mesothreads” that have a smooth surface; it is generally accepted that smooth threads cannot provide a lifting effect as such, and in this regard they are inferior to threads with notches or cones;
I studied thread lifting using Aptos threads from the author of the technique, Georgiy Sulamanidze, in his home clinic (Total Charm, Tbilisi), and later we practiced this technique together for a year; the impressions from this technique are as follows - a pronounced and rather long rehabilitation period (as for a cosmetic procedure), a relatively short duration of the lifting effect; and this is for threads that have a significantly greater potential for lifting than smooth “mesothreads”;
in our own practice (since 2012), the Aptos thread lifting technique occupies a small share, which is primarily due to the emergence of a worthy, high-quality alternative - a new technology of non-invasive tissue tightening - ultrasonic SMAS-lifting, which allows achieving high-quality clinical results without a rehabilitation period with a stable clinical result;
As for the second aspect of “mesothreads” - improving the structure of the skin, this raises the question of the feasibility of achieving the effect of “reinforcing” the skin for 3-4 months (the period of thread resorption) with such trauma and potential risks; Regarding the revitalizing effect due to the introduction of a synthetic inert material into the thickness of the skin, I, as a dermatologist, have a question - due to what? And what did traditional, time-tested hyaluronic acid preparations, mesotherapy, and plasma lifting not like in this matter?

3. Today there is a stable information field:

on the one hand: there is a wary or negative reaction from European colleagues - there is a large flow of patients with complications after mesothreads;
on the other hand: there is active promotion on the part of mesothread manufacturing companies and trainers engaged by them, and at the same time there is a lack of adequate explanations about complications from these same trainers.

4. The subject for discussion is the effectiveness and safety of mesothreads for patients. There are no questions about their cost-effectiveness for doctors.

About mesothreads

The threads that specialists use during thread lifting are most often produced in South Korea. They are divided into the following types or generations:

The first generation of threads are single-chain polydioxane threads made from synthetics; they usually disintegrate on their own and are excreted from the body.
The second generation of threads differs from the previous type in increased strength and a special external coating.
Third generation mesothreads consist of substances similar to previous varieties. The difference is only in the specific structure.

There are several generations of mesothreads

The threads used do not cause an allergic reaction. Cases of allergies are extremely rare and are associated with the specifics of the client’s body. In addition, the thread is non-toxic and is used in surgery. In other words, there is practically no reaction from the skin during resorption. Once in the desired area, the thread breaks down into water and carbon dioxide. It takes about eight months for the thread to decompose, after which a small compaction is retained and used as a frame.

Threads for 3D lifts can be different. There are several materials that differ in thickness, structure, and length. Specialists can use one type or several - then different parts of the body or face are processed. The specific type of thread is determined by the doctor, who takes into account the severity of age-related changes and the characteristics of the skin.

Important ! Typically, the length of the thread has no effect on the final price tag.

The doctor determines what type of thread to use

Linear mesothreads. Made from smooth and thin fibers, they are used to correct the shape of the lips, and correct problems localized around the eyes, upper eyelids, and neck. The length ranges from 25 to 90 millimeters.

Linear mesothreads

Spiral mesothreads. The purpose is almost universal. Its length is from 50 to 60 millimeters. The name of the threads is due to their ability to return to their original shape after tension, and this is a fundamentally important aspect of a lift, since it is very important to maintain natural facial expressions.

Important ! They are usually used for nasolabial folds, chin, eyebrows and décolleté.

Spiral mesothreads

Needle mesothreads. They are covered with special notches that are able to hold the skin structures in the desired position for a long time. Due to this property, it is possible to achieve the maximum tightening effect.

It is worth noting ! The placement of such threads in the desired area is accompanied by quite severe pain, so before the procedure the specialist is required to administer local anesthesia.

Needle mesothreads

The following threads are currently approved for use in our country:

Lead Fine Lift, made in Korea;
Beaute`Lift V Line, produced in Japan.

Lead Fine Lift

Beauty`Lift V Line

Knowing the manufacturers is very important, because in cosmetology you may be asked to carry out the procedure using other threads. And in this case, there are no guarantees that the material will be of high quality, safe and will take root well. If you decide to undergo such a procedure, you should also study the list of contraindications.

What is the method?

Its essence consists of subcutaneous injection into different parts of the body of the thinnest, almost invisible threads of polydioxanone.

A thread attached to a flexible steel guide needle, sharpened by a laser, is inserted in the form of a mesh perpendicular to the muscle tissue. The needle is so thin that it easily slides into the subcutaneous fat tissue, practically without damaging it. At the moment the needle moves back, the thread loses connection with the conductor and remains in the skin. The material is biologically compatible and absolutely safe for the human body. The mesothread is under the skin for 3-9 months, after which practically no traces remain of it, except for decay products: water and carbon dioxide.

During this period, the mesothreads are braided with new collagen fibers. Thus, a clear supporting frame is formed, which performs its functions of keeping problem areas of the skin in a certain state for more than two years.

The main advantages of mesothreads

To identify the positive aspects of this technology, it should be compared with gold threads for greater clarity. Both of these techniques are designed to affect the upper parts of the epithelium, relieving a person of sagging skin and wrinkles.

It’s worth saying a little about the 3D effect that is obtained thanks to the introduction of mesothreads. Their work occurs on the principle of “soft” production of the body’s own collagen. The result is young, beautiful and elastic skin.

Thanks to the use of mesothreads you can achieve a “3D effect”

If you compare mesothreads with gold threads, the former are created from materials that dissolve over time. When these threads are placed under your skin, you can resort to various hardware rejuvenation techniques, but gold threads are permanently placed in the right place and, if they are present, some procedures are contraindicated.

Important ! Gold threads are used only by a plastic surgeon. Mesothreads can be placed under the skin in a cosmetologist’s office.

Gold threads, unlike mesothreads, do not dissolve

Another important advantage of the procedure we are considering is the possibility of a very quick return to a normal lifestyle. Habitual activities are permissible almost immediately after the end of the manipulations, any possible discomfort is minimized.

Since thread lifting with mesothreads came into use not so long ago, there are not many reviews about this procedure. Many people are put off by the amount they have to pay for such a rejuvenation technique.

The cost of the thread ranges from 25 to 50 euros. The total amount will indeed be impressive, but the result obtained justifies the money spent. It is very important for women to remain young and beautiful for a long time, so many are willing to pay a lot of money for the procedures.

The cost of one thread is rather high, but the result justifies the money spent

At the moment, the procedure we are considering is in great demand in the beauty industry. This is due to the huge number of positive aspects of threadlifting:

Excellent results. Changes can be replaced immediately after the procedure is completed. Another significant advantage is that there is no need to take many courses.
Sterility. The threads and needles used must be supplied in disposable packaging.
Safety. The material from which the threads are made does not harm the human body. Needles are also safe.

The material is safe for the human body
Long lasting effect. The result will please you for at least a couple of years, and for some it lasts even longer.
No pain. Since specialists use very thin and sharp needles, the client may feel only minor discomfort during the manipulation.
Versatility. The procedure we are considering is acceptable for people of any gender and almost any age. Do not forget, however, that for young people under 25 years of age, this kind of influence is pointless, because their skin already feels great. In some cases, however, age-related changes are not completely amenable to threads, so thread lifting is combined with other procedures. You can learn more about this during a consultation with a cosmetologist, which is required before carrying out manipulations.

It is more rational to carry out the procedure after 30-35 years
Recovery. At the end of the event, the person will not have to undergo long rehabilitation. For the most part, clients do without it altogether.

Comments from leading specialists in aesthetic medicine

Sharova A.A., Ph.D. Sc., Associate Professor, Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Cosmetology and Cell Technologies, Russian National Research Medical University named after. N.I. Pirogova, Moscow, 2013:

The method of threadlifting with smooth polydioxanone threads has appeared quite recently; we are just beginning to accumulate our own clinical experience and develop scientifically and clinically sound approaches to the placement of threads. The technique still requires detailed study, clinical and experimental studies, as well as analysis of possible long-term effects, both positive and negative. Only a calm, reasonable attitude towards the method, without bias, but also without unnecessary euphoria, will allow us to determine its place in the arsenal of therapeutic cosmetology.

Karpova E.I., Ph.D. Sc., plastic surgeon, “Danishchuk Clinic”, Moscow, 2013:

I have little experience using threads yet. I did not observe any adverse effects in my patients, with the exception of swelling and pain during the first week after the procedure. However, patients came for consultation both with complications of an infectious and inflammatory nature, and those associated with migration of the thread to the surface of the skin. The euphoria associated with the use of “mesothreads” will, of course, soon pass, and it will be replaced by balanced recommendations and proven techniques for installing threads.

Shirshakova M.A., Ph.D. D., dermatovenerologist, assistant at the Department of General Medicine, Russian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, scientific consultant at the Expert Research Center, Moscow, 2013:

My work experience and observation of patients indicate that the cosmetic effect lasts for 2.5-11 months. To achieve a long-lasting effect, we perform an additional procedure 1-3 months after the first.
A very important point in the prevention of infectious complications:
thorough make-up removal of the entire face;
double treatment of the skin, including the hairline, with an antiseptic solution;
insulation of hair and neck with secured sterile napkins;
after implantation of the threads, the skin is carefully treated with an antiseptic;
Before the procedure, quartzing is carried out in the office.
Typical adverse events after the procedure are local hemorrhages and swelling. At the stage of mastering the technique, one of my patients developed an extensive hematoma in the temporal region, which “slipped” onto the cheekbone. The patient complained of pain during articulation and chewing. Another patient developed severe swelling that persisted for more than a week. Regarding other undesirable phenomena, in my practice there were only two cases: displacement and cutting of the thread 3 days after the procedure. We removed the “erupted” thread, but we could not remove the displaced thread; we are monitoring the patient. A patient of one of my colleagues had an infectious complication - an abscess of the soft tissues of the cheek. The abscess was treated surgically against the background of antibacterial therapy, anti-inflammatory and desensitizing therapy. Also, once I consulted a patient with visualization of threads under the skin when they were implanted too superficially (they were visible with blue stripes). The threads have been removed.
In my experience, the most common adverse event is lack of results!
To summarize, I would like to say that the method and materials are promising, but require additional study. Of course, we want the promises that companies make to us and that we convey to patients to come true.

Barannik M.I., Ph.D. Sc., plastic surgeon, associate professor of the Department of Plastic Surgery of the Faculty of Plastic Surgery of the People's Friendship University of Russia, head of the Diamand clinic, Moscow, 2013:

Indeed, when implanting threads such as Aptos or Silhouette Lift, they are fixed to the skin or fascia. And due to tension due to the presence of micro-notches or micro-cones, a pronounced lifting effect develops - the movement of an array of soft tissues upward, against the vector of gravitational ptosis. When using smooth threads, direct tissue displacement is not possible. Today, implantation of PDS threads is a “fashionable verdict”. In the future, I foresee a significant increase in the number of these procedures. This is due to the availability of the technique for cosmetologist therapists. The clinical experience accumulated over time will allow us to improve the technique and more clearly formulate indications and contraindications for aesthetic threadlifting. It is possible to discuss the real possibilities of the procedure, its advantages and disadvantages only in the future.

Important to read

As a practicing doctor, I would like to draw attention to a number of facts and share my own opinion about the “revolutionary technique” - mesothreads:

the technique was developed and began to be used in South Korea several years ago [6];
leading specialists in the field of aesthetic medicine have little experience in using this technique;
in Ukraine, the widespread use of the technique began even later than in Russia, therefore, there is no talk about the presence of significant practical experience and, as a result, an understanding of the effectiveness (expediency) of the technique, the risks of developing immediate and long-term consequences;
At the time of writing this article, “mesothreads” are not widely used both in Western Europe and in the USA; the technique is not certified by the FDA (USA), which is a “rule of good manners” for all cosmetic products, equipment and techniques, and medical products.

Every doctor in his practice constantly faces certain “result/safety” when deciding on the advisability of a particular treatment method, a particular procedure. What do we have in “mesothreads”?

Safety

For the vast majority of patients, the rehabilitation period takes about a week. The most common adverse events observed after the introduction of polydioxanone threads are hemorrhages, pain and swelling of the implantation area.

In just 6 months of 2013, we observed more than 20 patients who underwent the procedure of placing “mesothreads” in various institutions in Donetsk and the region with more serious complications:

purulent inflammation along the threads (violation of the rules of asepsis and antisepsis when performing the procedure);
aseptic inflammation that developed several weeks after the insertion of the threads (probably, we are talking about an allergic reaction of the body to the inserted suture material) is the most complex complication, which is extremely difficult to correct even surgically;
contouring/protrusion of the ends of the threads under the skin (violation of the technique for placing the threads, or nuances of the technique itself).

Moreover, these are only those cases when the doctor who performed the procedure was unable to solve the problem that arose and the patient went to another specialized clinic, but how many such cases are there in total?

Efficiency

Manufacturing companies announce two effects achieved when installing “mesothreads” – lifting (skin tightening and improvement of facial features) and improving the quality characteristics of the skin [6].

in modern aesthetic medicine, there are at least two directions aimed at achieving a lifting effect (threads with protrusions or cones are more effective in this regard - Aptos or Silhouette Lift; hardware technologies operating at different levels - CO2 lasers, radio wave lifting, ultrasonic SMAS- lifting), which have a more pronounced effect and, what is important, a clear, high safety profile, confirmed by both European certificates and the FDA (USA);
improving the quality characteristics of the skin: in order to “reinforce” the skin, technologies such as intradermal and subcutaneous injections of stabilized hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxyapatite preparations (in order to moisturize and improve metabolic processes in the dermis - injections of unstabilized hyaluronic acid (biorevitalization) and mesotherapy have been successfully used for a long time )), in order to improve microcirculation, the functioning of fibroblasts and the quality of metabolic processes of the skin - injections of PRP (platelet-rich plasma - plasmolifting). And this is not counting the whole arsenal of various methods of hardware cosmetology. Isn't this enough?! The main thing is that each of them has a result that is understandable to the doctor, achievable, and a confirmed safety profile.

What makes a doctor choose “mesothreads” given such a “losing balance: effectiveness/safety”?

on the one hand, this is the desire for something new, more perfect, effective (but you need to be objective and differentiate the promises of manufacturing companies from the results of clinical studies, documented confirmation of effectiveness and safety by quality committees in Europe and the USA);
on the other hand, I’ll just express my guess - the cost of one thread is $2.5-7.5 (depending on the manufacturing company), 30-40 threads are usually used to treat the face, the average cost of the procedure is $940. I think economics is interesting.

Indications and contraindications for the procedure

Almost any woman can make herself young and beautiful with the help of a thread lifting procedure. It is worth noting that any cosmetic effect has its own indications and contraindications - including mesothreads.

First, let's talk about the indications for this procedure:

folds in the nasolabial triangle;
wrinkles localized in different places;
drooping eyelids or eyebrows;
double chin;
loose skin in various parts of the body.

It is worth resorting to the procedure if there are certain indications

Now let's note the contraindications:

infectious diseases in the acute stage;
allergic rash in the area of manipulation;
skin diseases;
damage to the skin (for example, scratches);
cancer diseases;
problems with immunity;
blood diseases (for example, hemophilia);
feeling unwell, feverish;
alcohol poisoning;
period of bearing a baby or breastfeeding;
mental problems.

There are contraindications for thread lifting with mesothreads

Summary:

if you intend to perform the procedure of aesthetic correction of appearance using “mesothreads”, you need to read the above material;
perform this procedure under appropriate sterile conditions (actually operating room conditions are required);
the procedure performed is purely medical, and the doctor must have adequate qualifications and appropriate certification;
make sure that the threads that will be implanted have a registration certificate from the Ministry of Health of Ukraine;
weigh the pros and cons, receiving comprehensive information about possible alternative methods of aesthetic correction (often they are more gentle and effective);
like everything new, convincing data on the effectiveness and safety of “mesothreads” will appear over time;
I am convinced that every patient counts on a high-quality, safe, effective procedure, and today there are more than enough of them.

Think and choose wisely!

Evgeniy SHAGOV – chief physician of ReFuture Clinic and Shagov Aesthetic Medicine

How do you prepare for thread lifting and how is it carried out?

In order to prevent certain complications (one of them is infectious skin lesions), you should properly prepare for this procedure.

The preparation rules are as follows:

Thoroughly clean the skin in the treatment area and remove decorative cosmetics using special means.
Disinfect your skin with an antiseptic. This applies not only to the area that will be exposed, but also to the hair around it.
Separate hair and skin near the “work front” from it using sterile wipes.

It is necessary to prepare the skin for the procedure

When the skin is thoroughly prepared, the thread lifting itself can begin. The course of the event is as follows:

First, the area where the threads will be inserted is numbed with a special cream.
The mesothread is threaded into a needle and carefully placed under the skin.
When the thread is passed to the desired place, the needle is removed.

The time allotted for the procedure and the number of required repetitions of manipulations are related to the client’s age, the severity of wrinkles, and the condition of the skin itself. Most often, a one-time procedure is enough, taking about an hour.

The doctor determines the number of procedures

Important ! After the procedure, the skin should be disinfected. The office where the thread lifting was carried out will be treated with quartz after each client.

Actions after threadlifting

Cosmetologists recommend the following to clients:

refrain from active and prolonged chewing movements for a day;
use sunscreen to prevent skin damage from ultraviolet radiation;
use cosmetics and skin care products with caution - it is better to refrain from aggressive ingredients;
It is not recommended to rub creams, etc., into the skin, or to rub it;
it is necessary to avoid baths or saunas for about a week after thread lifting;
do not massage the skin for at least two weeks; heavy physical exercise and stress are also not recommended.

After the procedure you need to adhere to certain rules

Important ! Although it is known that mesothreads are perfectly accepted by the human body due to ideal compatibility, customer reviews indicate that the individual characteristics of the body have a great influence. But at the same time, it has been proven that the procedure we are considering is one of the best methods of skin rejuvenation with minimal intervention.

Complications

Any cosmetologist to whom you ask a question about thread lifting will confidently say that this procedure is safe for health. But it is worth remembering that this factor is directly related to the experience and skills of the specialist. Clients respond differently to this procedure.

It is important to contact only experienced specialists - this will help avoid complications.

Even when your cosmetologist perfectly carries out many different procedures and you have never had any complaints about his work, this does not guarantee that he will also be able to carry out thread lifting using mesothreads perfectly. You should always ask if the specialist is certified to perform the procedure. If possible, read reviews about this person’s work - there are many of them on the Internet now.

Important ! Also ask if the cosmetologist has photos of past clients with “before” and “after” results. When such obvious requests cause bewilderment in a specialist, you should think about his professionalism.

Let's talk about the complications that are typical for thread lifting:

"Accordion effect" If the cosmetologist violated the technique of the procedure, there is a chance that you will see an “accordion” in yourself. The needle should be placed strictly under the skin in a given direction. When this direction shifts even by a millimeter, the skin subsequently tightens, forming folds that resemble puffs when sewing. And even when the threads dissolve, the skin will not return to its previous state - small but noticeable compactions will remain.
Lump formation. A lump is a nodule under the skin that appears only if the thread is not distributed correctly in the treated area. Often these bumps do not disappear, although sometimes they may become less noticeable after six months.

Occasionally, bumps may form
Unexpressed result. Any cosmetic procedure largely depends on the specifics of your body. For some, thread lifting allows them to achieve the ideal effect, while others will not be entirely happy with it. Excellent results can be observed by people who have not shown too significant changes caused by age. The procedure also helps in correcting the oval of the face. But when the wrinkles are too deep and noticeable, or if there is a lot of sagging skin, thread lifting will not help you deal with these problems.

How do mesothreads work?

How do mesothreads rejuvenate the face and have a beneficial effect on the condition of soft tissues? To carry out the procedure, impregnated threads are used, which, using a flexible and very thin needle, are inserted under the skin not only in different directions, but also to different depths, thereby providing the notorious 3D effect.

As a result, sagging areas are noticeably tightened, skin turgor, firmness and elasticity increase. Thanks to the action of polyaminolactic acid, which is impregnated with the threads before the procedure, the skin is saturated with beneficial vitamins, amino acids and moisture, which leads to natural renewal of the skin.

When the procedure is carried out correctly, a strong frame is formed under the skin, which is not noticeable to the prying eye, is not felt by the patient himself and does not cause him any inconvenience. Mesothreads completely disintegrate after 6-8 months, leaving behind a mesh formed from collagen and elastin fibers. After the threads are completely absorbed, the cumulative effect of their impact lasts, as a rule, for another two years.

Mesothreads are inserted under the facial skin to different depths, thereby creating a 3D effect.

What can you combine with?

After the rehabilitation period, measures can be taken to enhance the effect. Reinforcement can be combined with procedures such as:

Botox (usually botulinum toxins are administered before thread lifting);
hyaluronic acid fillers;
hardware cosmetology (plasma lifting, radio frequency or radio wave lifting, myostimulation, ultrasonic cavitation, electroporation, fractional mesotherapy, fractional and laser rejuvenation);
Mesothreads are also recommended to be installed before the introduction of lifting threads to tighten the skin.

Hardware procedures begin only after consolidation has taken place, that is, about a month after installation. The exception is plasma lifting, which is often combined with the installation of mesothreads.

Differences from thread lifting

The procedure we are considering is in many ways similar to a thread lift, but there are still differences, and they are significant. The main difference is the material used to produce the threads. Thread lifting, for example, involves the use of gold threads.

During thread lifting, many threads are used, and when the material used is calculated, it is the number of mesothreads that is determined.

Important ! Thread lifting involves analyzing the area that needs to be treated.

Thread lifting and thread lifting have differences

Thread lifting causes quite noticeable pain, but the result lasts for a longer time - about 5 years. When threadlifting, the threads decompose after six months, and the result lasts about 1-2 years.

Cost of thread lifting with mesothreads

Only a specific salon will be able to tell you the final cost, since you need to count the number of threads and decide on their type.

The cost of the procedure depends on the number of threads used

An ordinary mezzanine costs an average of a thousand rubles. For thread lifting, the price increases - from 1.5 to 4 thousand. It is worth noting that the needle variety is significantly more expensive than others. The price also increases when you want to supplement thread lifting with other cosmetic procedures.

for the chin you need from 10 to 15 threads;
for eyebrows you need from 5 to 10 threads;
for the cheek you need from 20 to 30 threads;
for the contour of the face you need 10 threads on each side;
To correct folds in the area of the nasolabial triangle, 5 threads are required.

Cost of the procedure in the salon

The average price for thread lifting of the face ranges from 7,000 to 35,000 rubles.

In small cities, the amount may decrease by one and a half to two times. This is explained by costs, the level of the establishment, the qualifications of the craftsmen, and pricing policy.

Reviews

Larisa, Barnaul

“Threadlifting with mesothreads was a procedure that was completely incomprehensible to me until recently. From the name it was clear to me that thanks to this method you can remove all sorts of “sagging”, but I did not understand how exactly. I went for a consultation with a specialist who explained everything to me. Without thinking for a long time, I passed all the examinations and went for the procedure.

I really liked the result. The face really tightened up, but it didn’t look unnatural, the face wasn’t tense. By the way, I saw the effect immediately, but then it became stronger. I am very pleased and recommend it to everyone."

“Thread lifting with mesothreads is, of course, not a cheap procedure, but the result justifies such costs. It simply amazes – and only in a good way. My face literally instantly began to look much younger, I feel like a 20-year-old girl, although I am already over 50. Of course, I thought that the effect would be visible, but I didn’t expect to see this. I really hope that the result will last for quite a long time, but later I will definitely repeat the procedure. Girls, women, I recommend this procedure to everyone who does not want to see age-related changes, but wants to eliminate them very quickly!”
