Can
I get reaction to threads?
This
is extremely rare as the thread is made of
the same material (Prolene), which is used
for over 40 years in all the surgeries, including
the eye.
What
is recovery time?
All
of the pull, none of the pain
It
is day care procedure. Recovery is very quick
and you only need to take a couple of days
of work. You may have some bruising which
settles in 2-4 days.
Potential side effects:
It
is done under local anesthesia hence
no complications of general anesthesia -
Rarely some reaction to the thread which is
easily correctable
Infection is very rare
How
long does it take?
It
takes 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the number
of threads inserted. You need to stay in clinic
for only 30 minutes after procedure is over.
Recovery is immediate as it is done under
local anesthesia.
Advantage
over traditional facelift:
Can be done at any age from 30-70 years.
No downtime. You recover in 2 days. In traditional
facelift you have swelling and bruising for
at least 2-3 weeks after surgery.
Done under local anesthesia hence no complications
of general anesthesia.
There are very small cuts & hence minimal
scars. In facelift there is a cut for about
10-20 cms and hence scarring.
Avoiding various complications of face lift
like permanent nerve damage, pulled ear lobes,
etc.
No pulled or windblown appearance of a traditional
facelift. After thread lift you look more
natural.
No need to stay in hospital.
Cheaper than a facelift.
Non Surgical Facial Rejuvenation:
The
new generation: non-invasive techniques
The Threadlift/ Non-surgical face lift,(WAPTOS,
APTOS) is just one example of the many minimally
invasive techniques that are taking the clinical
beauty industry by storm.
Cosmetic surgery has already taken a big turn.
Believe it or not, there was a time that if
a surgeon didn't do a lot of cutting, it wasn't
considered 'macho,' because in a way that
was what a surgeon was supposed to do."
Today the drive for minimally invasive techniques
is, in large part, driven by patient demand.
Whereas decades ago the mark of success for
a facelift would have been measured in how
many square inches of skin the surgeon could
remove, today a successful procedure is characterized
by a quick recovery and a natural, fresh look.
Patients want to look as good as they can,
but with as little pain and effort as possible.
This demand has resulted in the creation
or further development of a range of other
non-surgical facial treatments - treatments
such as Botox, Fillers, Threadlifts and Photorejuventation
with Peels, Lasers, Microdermabrasion,etc.
'YOUNG AGAIN IN MINUTES'
'BEAUTY
WITHOUT DOWNTIME & RISKS OF SURGERY'
'NEW
LUNCH TIME PROCEDURES'
There
is no permanence in cosmetic surgery. The
only things that are permanent are the complications.
So techniques with as few complications as
possible are far more desirable in todays
world.People want procedures that are result
oriented and have no side effects or down
time.
True
restoration often requires a comprehensive
approach, and this same principle holds true
for the aging face. While Botox,lasers, threads
and fillers each do their part toward a rejuvenated
look, it is only in combination that these
treatments can deliver a comprehensively natural,
younger look. These procedures have virtually
no side-effects, require only few minutes
to perform, are easy to perform, have no downtime(
you can go for work or to a party almost immediately)
