Ideal candidates for Aquagold microneedling typically include individuals seeking non-invasive skin rejuvenation
Aquagold is particularly suited for individuals seeking a subtle yet noticeable enhancement in their appearance. Targeting the outer layers of the skin, microchanneling through Aquagold can effectively refine skin texture, reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulate collagen production across the face, neck, and décolletage. It’s an excellent choice for those desiring a softer, more youthful look without the need for drastic alterations.
How a Thread Lift Works:
Firstly, in a thread lift procedure, your doctor inserts temporary threads beneath your skin, gently pulling it back or upward. This creates a tighter appearance in the treated area as the threads, acting as supportive filaments, secure and hold the skin in place. This immediate effect results in an elevated look for your face.
Secondly, these threads stimulate your body’s natural healing response. They trigger your body to generate more collagen in the treated areas, interpreting the threads as a form of injury. This increased collagen production contributes to a fuller, more plump appearance of the skin, aided by your natural skin collagen protein
What are the steps involved in performing a thread lift?
To execute a thread lift, your skin will be numbed locally. Thin needles called cannulas will be inserted under your skin in targeted areas. These cannulas guide the threads into position. The quantity of threads needed depends on the treatment area. Once the threads are set, the cannula is removed, leaving no scars but potential discomfort.
Areas commonly treated with a thread lift include:
- Cheeks and Jawline.
- Brow arch.
- Under-eye area.
- Forehead.
Risk Of Getting Thread Lifts
Common experiences post-thread lift include:
- Bruising.
- Swelling.
- Mild discomfort at the thread injection site.
Possible complications of thread lifts may involve:
- Irritation leading to post-operative redness.
- Facial stiffness or difficulty in movement due to the threads.
- Infection risk, inherent to any medical procedure.
Types of Threads
“Thread lifts commonly use barbed or smooth threads, each offering specific benefits like enhanced lift or collagen stimulation for skin tightening, tailored to individual needs.”
