Description:
There are two ways to go about this, depending on the case
and the desired results:
- Injectable fillers can be used to
plump deep facial folds, resulting in a lifted. more youthful
look.
- A Thread Lift (sometimes called a "Feather Lift")
is a revolutionary way to combat the signs of aging. This
non-surgical procedure, as described above in the non-surgical
brow lift section, can also be used to lift and tighten
jowls and cheeks with less time and money than a surgical
facelift. In this procedure, specially designed threads
are inserted below the skin through a hollow needle. The needle
is then removed, leaving only the threads in. These threads
are textured so they grab and hold the skin in a tighter,
more youthful position. They stay in permanently but can be
removed at any time, if desired.
This procedure takes less than one hour and downtime is minimal.
Some patients experience mild swelling (although much less
than with a traditional facelift) which can last up to a week
or so.
Tape will be applied over the thread sites and should
stay in place for several days, as advised by your GIAA physician.
You can immediately wash your face and/or wear make-up as
long as you are careful to keep the tape in place, and there
are no incisions or scars. Results are immediate and continue
to improve with time as the body produces collagen around
the threads. How much improvement can you expect? For the
cheek area, we usually see 20-40% improvement in most cases.
While you are not treating incisions after having this procedure,
it is very important not to press or rub over the threads
for at least 3 weeks and to avoid sleeping on your face for
about 1 week. The results are permanent, however, your skin
does continue to age, so typically we figure several years,
at which time more threads can be added.
