Our innovative thread lift treatments tighten and firm sagging skin without the need for surgery or extensive downtime. If you want a smoother, rejuvenated look, this minimally invasive solution could be the answer! Here’s what you should know about facial threading near you in Mississauga.
What Are Thread Lifts?
As we age, our skin’s natural support structure weakens. This, combined with the effects of gravity, can lead to drooping features, jowls, and wrinkles. Thread lifts are a revolutionary way to combat these signs of aging with a non-surgical approach. Thin, specialized threads are carefully placed beneath the skin’s surface. These threads gently lift and contour sagging tissues, creating a more youthful and defined facial structure. Dr. Rohit Kumar is an experienced aesthetic and comsmetic injector providing thread lifts near you in Mississauga.
How Does It Work?
1. Consultation: Dr. Rohit Kumar will assess your skin and discuss your desired outcome, creating a personalized thread lift treatment plan for you.
2. Local Anesthetic: A numbing agent is applied as required to minimize discomfort and ensure a comfortable treatment experience.
3. Thread Insertion: Dr. Kumar strategically places the specialized threads beneath your skin.
4. Lifting and Sculpting: The threads are gently manipulated to lift and reposition tissues, improving areas of concern.
5. Collagen Stimulation: Your body recognizes the threads as a “foreign element,” stimulating a natural healing response. This leads to increased production of collagen, elastin, and supportive tissues – the building blocks for firmer, tighter skin.
Introduction to Thread Lifts
Cosmetic Injections
The Background
As we age, our skin naturally starts to fall and sag. This happens as a result of progressive loss of collagen and elastin, two vital proteins which give our skin structure, elasticity, and firmness. Additionally, exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays and environmental damage also breaks down collagen and elastin fibers.
The Issue
The pull of gravity, combined with the loss of supporting tissues beneath the skin can cause it to droop and sag. This results in the exagerration of smile lines, jowls, marionette lines and loose skin on the neck.
The Solution
A Thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves placing biodegradable threads beneath your skin to help lift and tighten the trouble areas. The threads are lined with tiny hooks that gently pull and lift your skin, creating a more defined and youthful appearance. These threads also stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins that provide structure and elasticity. The increase in collagen and elastin production promotes skin rejuvenation, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
What to Expect During the Non-Surgical Thread Lift Treatment
The thread lift procedure is generally quick and comfortable:
- Duration: Approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Discomfort: Minimal.
- After Treatment: Mild bruising, swelling, and soreness are not uncommon. Bruising and swellling typically subside within a days and soreness within a one to two weeks. You may also feel tightness or temporary dimpling, which will resolve as the treatment settles.
- Recovery: You can generally resume most activities immediately. Dr. Kumar will provide specific aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results.
Ideal Candidates for Thread Lifts
Thread lifts are a versatile anti-aging treatment, but they work best for individuals with specific characteristics. You might be an ideal candidate if you have mild to moderate skin sagging, particularly in the lower face and neck. If you are in your 30s to 50s with good skin elasticity, thread lifts may be especially effective in giving you a more youthful appearance. If you desire a natural-looking lift without the risks of invasive surgical procedures, or are simply not yet ready for a surgical facelift, a thread lift might be a great option. It can also be a fantastic complementary treatment to enhance and maintain the results of a surgical facelift.
Thread Lift vs. Facelift: Choosing the Right Procedure
Both thread lifts and facelifts target sagging skin, but they have distinct differences that are essential to consider. Thread lifts are a minimally invasive option with minimal recovery time, while a facelift is a surgical procedure requiring a more extended recovery period. Thread lifts provide subtle to moderate lifting effects, resulting in a natural-looking refreshed appearance. Facelifts, on the other hand, offer more dramatic and longer-lasting results by surgically reshaping underlying tissues. Dr. Kumar will assess your individual needs and help you determine whether a thread lift, facelift, or a combination of both procedures is the optimal choice to achieve your aesthetic goals.
Who Can Benefit From Thread Lifts?
Thread lifts offer a versatile and effective solution for multiple aesthetic concerns. They effectively lift sagging skin on the face, jowls, and neck, creating a more youthful appearance. Thread lifts also target fine lines and wrinkles for overall facial rejuvenation. Their ability to define the jawline and enhance cheekbones adds a beautifully sculpted dimension. At their core, thread lifts turn back the clock, minimizing the natural signs of aging for a refreshed look.
How Are Thread Lifts Different?
- Minimally Invasive: No incisions, anesthesia, or lengthy downtime.
- Natural Results: Subtle enhancement that preserves your unique features.
- Collagen Boost: Promotes long-lasting skin rejuvenation from within.
How Many Thread Lift Treatments Will I Need?
Dr. Rohit Kumar will recommend the best approach based on your goals and the extent of skin laxity. While a single treatment can deliver noticeable results, some patients may benefit from a series of treatments for the most dramatic impact.
How Long Does a Non-Surgical Thread Lift Last?
The effects of the treatment typically last 2-4 years. The collagen production triggered by the procedure provides benefits that go beyond the lifespan of the threads.
FAQs
How is a Thread Lift procedure performed?
A Thread Lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure using dissolvable threads to lift and tighten sagging skin. During the procedure, a doctor will carefully position and secure the threads underneath your skin. These threads have tiny hooks that anchor the tissues in a lifted position. Over time, the threads stimulate natural collagen production, providing ongoing support and maintaining the lifted effect. The exact placement and number of threads will vary depending on the individual’s specific needs.
Does a Thread Lift alter your facial features?
Unlike traditional surgical facelifts, Thread Lift treatments do not alter your facial features or leave any visible scars. Instead, they lift targeted areas resulting in a natural-looking improvement in skin appearance. Over time, the body’s natural protein synthesis process is triggered, producing collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which further improve the skin’s texture and tone. The outcome of the Thread Lift procedure typically provides a more youthful appearance.
How long does the effect of a Thread Lift treatment last?
How long the results of a Thread Lift treatment last depends on several factors, including the type of threads used and the elasticity of the skin and tissues in the targeted area.
Who is a suitable candidate for a Thread Lift treatment?
An ideal candidate for a Thread Lift treatment is between late thirties to late fifties, displaying mild to moderate signs of skin laxity. While patients with significant skin laxity may benefit more from surgical facelifts, Thread Lifts may be a viable option for those who do not wish to undergo surgery or are ineligible for medical reasons. It is important to be assessed by an experienced professional who can explain what kind of results to expect.
Post-Care Instructions for Thread Face Lifts
- Avoid pressure on the treated areas and sleep on your back for the first week
- Apply SPF 30 and avoid direct sunlight and tanning machines to prevent Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
- You can gently wash the treated areas starting on the same day but do not rub or massage the face for two weeks. Normal skin care routine can be started the following day
- Do not open mouth too wide or make exaggerated facial expressions for 3 to 4 weeks (avoid dental treatment for two weeks if possible)
- Avoid chewing hard or sticky food
- A stinging or “pulling pain” or discomfort is normal. Take Tylenol 500 mg 1 to 2 tablets every six hours as needed. This will subside over a two-week period. Scratchy sensation is normal; this will subside over a two-week period. It may last up to five weeks
- Bruising can vary and can last up to two weeks
- Avoid NSAIDS (inflammation is necessary to initiate the new collagen formation process) for the first 7 days
When to Contact the Doctor
- If you experience any increasing redness or pain (the best way to reach us is by calling the clinic)
- If it is after hours or a weekend, or you are unable to contact our office and you have a serious concern, go to the hospital or the closest emergency department
- Avoid blood thinning vitamins C, A and E for 7 days
- Avoid temperature extremes such hot tubs or saunas and very cold climates for 10 days
- Avoid physical exercise for seven days post procedure
- Taping/applying dressing may help prevent undoing of the lift until some fibrosis occurs
- Avoid having Radio Frequency (RF) or any heat producing device (laser, IPL, etc.) treatments of the thread treated areas for at least 10 weeks
- PRP, Micropen and dermal fillers can be used after 14 days
- Tips of threads may come to the surface of the skin. Most of these will regress over 3-4 weeks. It is possible for the thread to protrude. If this occurs arrange a follow-up appointment for management
- Follow up photography at one month post treatment
- Avoid alcohol and anticoagulant medicines (unless prescribed for medical indications) for 7 days
Follow up Appointment After Treatment
- First follow up 2 weeks after treatment
- Second follow up 3 months later
- Wait for 24 hours before resuming exercise, especially if it’s part of your daily routine. Your doctor may suggest waiting longer as physical activity can increase blood flow, which could spread the toxin and reduce its effectiveness at the injection site.
- Performing facial exercises like frowning, smiling, and raising your eyebrows is safe and can actually help the effects of Botox appear sooner.
- Avoid applying makeup on your skin for at least 24 hours after Botox treatment to prevent the potential dispersal of the toxin caused by rubbing.
- Sit upright and avoid bending or lying down for the first 4 hours after receiving Botox to minimize the spreading of the toxin and maintain its effectiveness at the injection site.
- Consult your doctor about medications that may increase your risk of bruising and when it is safe to resume taking them.
- Avoid touching, rubbing, or applying pressure on the treated area and maintain a normal heart rate to allow the Botox to settle into the muscles properly.
- Refrain from consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours after Botox treatment, as it can increase the risk of bruising.
- Avoid skin treatments like facial massages, exfoliating scrubs, and dermal fillers for the first 24 hours as they may also reduce the effectiveness of the Botox.
- Steer clear of sun exposure for at least 4 hours after treatment as it can cause flushing and increase blood pressure due to heat. For added caution, avoid the sun for 24 to 48 hours.
- Try to avoid sleeping on the areas where Botox was injected to minimize physical pressure and help the toxin settle into the muscles.
