Facial thread lift treatment in Chennai is a skin tightening technique that is used in surgery for closing wounds and lifting skin loose skin resulting from weight fluctuation or aging. Threads (sutures) are used in surgery to close wounds.
In this procedure, threads and fine surgical needles are placed under the skin to tighten and lift sagging or loose areas in various parts of the face and body to aid in rejuvenating the face.
While sutures provide physical support for the loose skin by pulling up the loose skin, non-surgical facelift threading stimulates the production of collagen that has slowed down due to aging.
Threads used in the treatment are distinguished based on characteristics – absorption, length, and surface texture.
- Absorption – Polydioxanone (PDO) thread, Polycaprolactone (PCL), Poly L Lactic Acid (PLLA)
- Length
- Texture – Non-barbed threads, uni-directional barbed threads, bi-directional threads
There are various types of threads that are popularly used during the facial thread lift treatment in Chennai. They include
PDO Threads
PDO threads are used during the PDO thread lift procedure. These are the longest threads that are used for surgical stitches. They are made up of a synthetic biodegradable polymer and are easily absorbed into the body over 6 months. Besides that, they stimulate fibroblasts for enhancing the production of collagen in a targeted area and have proven to be extremely safe.
PLA Threads
PLA threads are developed from a biocompatible polymer that is derived from lactic acid. It is used in many applications like orthopedic pins and sutures. These threads are used during the facial threat lift treatment in Chennai to increase the volume of saggy areas, restore shape to the facial area and provide a lift by using cones to hook to the tissue. They are resorbable and when compared to PDO threads regenerate collagen over an extended time.
PCA Threads
PCA threads are the modern bio-absorbable and monofilament suspension threads of (caprolactone) synthetic origin. The process of thread breakdown helps in producing molecules of small molecular weight to trigger the production of Hyaluronic acid and collagen by the skin. It induces collagen production for a longer time period compared to PDO and PLA threads. When they trigger the fibrotic reaction, even after reabsorption they leave a collagen structure to support the skin. This tightens the skin and prevents it from sagging. Besides that, it gives long-lasting results with more revitalized, moisturized, and firm skin
