Face lift with Korean threads

 Face lift with  threads.. The latest beauty trends for rejuvenation

Korean threads

Aging leads to loss of facial fat, especially around the cheeks, eye area and neck, and this is accompanied by skin aging as the elastic fibers in the skin become thinner, resulting in a loss of facial elasticity.

Both procedures result in a longer face and wrinkles due to the face not being able to provide the same amount of support. Korean thread facelift operations have emerged in the past few years as they give women wonderful and stunning results by lifting their face and neck. Korean thread lifts involve the use of facial threads that help reduce the effects of gravity and aging, thereby rejuvenating the face. In this article, learn about the details of the Korean thread facial rejuvenation process.

What are the results of aging and its effects on the face?

Aging leads to the loss of facial fat, especially around the cheeks, eye area and neck, and this is accompanied by skin aging as the elastic fibers in the skin become thinner, resulting in a loss of facial elasticity.

Threads are usually used for sewing and are usually associated with fashion, clothing, and simple aesthetic procedures such as eyebrow trimming and surgeries. In hospitals and clinics, medical practitioners use suture sutures to close open wounds and end surgical operations. However, surgical doctors also use sutures for non-surgical lifting operations to rejuvenate the face, which are called thread lifts. Thread lifting is also one of the many procedures in Korea to help you get rid of moderate skin laxity caused by aging and internal and external factors. 

The areas of the face that lose the most fat

Aging is a natural process in the human body that occurs in every human being, and as we age, collagen production weakens, facial skin hardens, and fat components throughout the body increase, which makes us look older. In other words, moderate skin laxity is the physical manifestation of aging due to the constant deterioration of the systems in our body.

The most affected areas are usually on the face, including the cheeks, eyebrows, neck, and the area of the lower jaw, or mandible. A thread facelift is a temporary treatment that tightens excess skin in various areas of the face by lifting it with soluble PDO threads instead of removing it, which is common among surgical tightening operations. A thread lift involves pulling the barbed threads, and the doctor inserts the threads into the facial areas with moderate laxity to make them look tight and firm.

In addition, thread tightening stimulates the body's natural healing abilities because the procedure causes the body to increase collagen production in the treated areas. This procedure is popular in Korea, specifically in Seoul. 

How is the Korean thread facelift done

Since a thread lift involves inserting a lot of threads through areas of the face with moderate skin laxity, you will be given local anesthesia before the procedure to help eliminate any pain or discomfort that you may feel during the treatment. Face lifts with soluble and insoluble threads are also used, depending on which type is more suitable for each woman . The doctor will insert the sutures under your skin in the areas you need treatment and pull them up or around your head, forehead and neck through a barbed suture.

The threaded spines will also securely fix everything in its new raised position. After that, the doctor will pull the lines in the desired direction to get a more taut appearance. And then, collagen structures will continue to form around the strands as a natural physical reaction, resulting in long-lasting tightening effects and even skin improvements due to the increase in collagen in the dermis. 

Features of the Korean thread facelift

A thread facelift is usually performed for women in their late thirties to early fifties because that is when skin laxity is most prominent. A threaded facelift is also an important alternative to surgical facelifts for individuals who cannot undergo surgery for medical reasons.

After the procedure, you will see the results immediately, but you may experience bruising, swelling, bleeding, inflammation and discomfort due to the nature of the procedure. So, for optimal healing, please refrain from moving the treated areas vigorously and avoid touching and pulling them. Treatment also includes minimal periods of recovery from work or no downtime at all, so you can resume your usual routine immediately after treatment.

And unlike a facelift, a thread lift is temporary, but the results can last up to three years depending on the severity of the skin laxity. 

Tips after a Korean thread facelift

Avoid sleeping on the front or side of your face, and avoid opening your mouth wide for the first three weeks after the operation to get the longest possible results. This means that you should avoid going to the dentist during this period. Finally, consult directly with your dermatologist or any licensed or certified medical practitioner before undergoing this procedure for your safety and to avoid unwanted skin damage. Also, please note that a thread facelift only corresponds to moderate skin laxity as it provides only a temporary face lift, therefore, surgical facelifts are suitable for severe and excessive skin sagging
