Thread Lift
The new generation thread face lift technique is a method that can be applied to the face and neck area. Thread lift is a minimal invasive procedure that is an alternative to surgery. Improves tightening the skin by using medical threads. With this procedure you can have results similar to facelifts.
It is applied under the skin with special needles for the restructuring of the skin (collagen synthesis, new vascularization, etc.) with surgical threads that can dissolve after a while in the body, and it has an effect on regeneration, removal of wrinkles and sagging. The effect that occurs even after the threads, which remain on the skin for 8-10 months on average, melt, can show its effect for 2 years depending on the previous wrinkle and sagging rate.
Threads of different lengths and structures are used, which are specially produced for the area where the procedure will be performed. The process as a whole provides tightening, rejuvenation and cell renewal of the skin. After the procedure, the pores on the face are tightened and the quality of the skin changes. Its effect is provided by the needles applied on the one hand, and by the action mechanism of the body as a reaction to the threads, on the other hand. This reaction is instantly recognized by the body and produces biological fibroblasts, collagen and elastin. Thus, the lifting effect is increased.

To Whom Can It Be Applied?
Method; those with sagging faces. It is applied to those who have wrinkles, wrinkles under the lower eyelids, wrinkles around the mouth/lips, and sagging skin under the chin.
How is it done?
Threads with PDO (polydioxanone) material placed in very fine needles are used at the marked points in the required areas. Made of polydioxanone (PDO), these threads provide a lifting and tightening effect on sagging skin tissue.
This treatment is a minimal and non-surgical procedure. Under local anesthesia, PDO threads are inserted into different layers of the skin through sharp or blunt needles (cannulas). Once attached, the threads fix the skin and lift it upwards. Excess parts are cut off.
How Do Threads Affect the Skin?
Skin Tightening: Thanks to the threads placed under the skin after the procedure, new collagen and blood vessels are produced to improve the stretched facial lines and microcirculation. Also PDO threads; by tightening the adipose tissue, it provides tightening of the skin, thinning of the face and taking V shape. As a reaction to the threads placed under the skin, the body produces collagen containing fibroblasts and growth factors. Thus, the lifting effect is increased. As a result of the application, which lasts about 30-60 minutes and is performed with local anesthesia, the threads stretch the tissues and the first effects begin to be seen after the operation. After three months, the final result is seen and the effect lasts for 12-18 months. Threads, on the other hand, dissolve and disappear spontaneously over time.
What are the Possible Side Effects?
This treatment is extremely safe. For example, when compared to filler injections, it can be said that the side effects are milder. Since PDO threads are placed under the skin with needles, not surgically, and are absorbed within 6-8 months, most of the side effects of traditional thread facelift procedures such as infection and thread breakage are minimized.
Depending on the thread types used and the treated area, bruising may occur. In some patients, bruising is not experienced at all and daily life can be resumed immediately after the procedure. Mild swelling and pain may be experienced up to 3 days after the procedure. You may feel your skin tightening for up to 2 weeks. In some cases, slight pitting of the skin may occur temporarily. This will also resolve in a few days.
