Threads used in aesthetic medicine (threads)
clinici estetice
Lifting with injectable threads represents a minimally evasive aesthetic treatment that helps to regain the firmness of the skin, at the same time being able to offer the recovery of the left skin structures.
These threads are produced with the help of various substances and are both absorbable and permanent. They have been used successfully for over 30 years in countless cardiac surgeries; therefore, in the hands of a specialist, the wires represent safe and efficient implant materials.
Who can implant these wires for the purpose of facelift or other areas of the body?
What substances do they contain?
The dermatologist or plastic surgeon is able to perform this operation, which is considered a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure.
Yarns can contain multiple substances, which differ from one manufacturing company to another.
In our clinics, the main component of resorbable yarns is poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which provides additional anti-aging effects by stimulating natural tissue revitalization, slowing the aging process. After implantation, it generates the "foreign body" reaction in the skin, leading to the production of new collagen and long-term results. During the process of biodegradation of implanted wires, PLLA is released into the surrounding tissues, stimulating rehydration and biorevitalization.
The addition of polycaprolactone further slows down the biodegradation of yarns, thus increasing the recovery time of tissue structures. In clinical trials where these yarns have been used, it has been shown that the evaluation of biodegradation products and the complete absorption of the yarns can be observed at the earliest in 1.5 to 2 years.
Also in our clinics you can find the latest innovation in absorbable yarns, namely, APTOS yarns that also contain hyaluronic acid. After a research period of several years, APTOS is the first company in the world to register this technology, where, in addition to the lifting effect, the stimulation of collagen and elastin are much improved, slowing down even more and rectifying marked ptosis and aging. .
What is the physiological process of aging?
According to Balle et al., The aging process can be illustrated as follows:
35 years old
45 years old
55 years old
Aging, gravity, lack of collagen, fat and bone support that support the skin and its elasticity, are the main protagonists that cause the facial skin to change its structure and become flaccid. Thus, with a wide variety of hairs, we can treat many areas, from lifting the large areas (knees and buttocks), to a subtle lifting, such as the eyebrows.
Wired lifting is a minimally invasive procedure with minimal recovery time. Stimulation of collagen production will continue in the next 4-6 months after the procedure, leaving a firm skin and a prolonged lifting effect even after the threads dissolve. These resorbable threads have small "thorns" that attach to the subcutaneous tissue and help shape the face and restore firmness, giving a rejuvenated appearance.
Our doctors are accredited to perform these techniques, having numerous trainings in France, Great Britain and the USA. They will offer you the best solutions for an achievable and visible result.
