You Should Get Thread Lifting for Nasolabial Folds Like This. (Written by a Plastic Surgery Clinic)

Hello.

We are Re:本 Plastic Surgery Clinic, meeting you at Exit 1 of Sinsa Station.

The nasolabial line that runs continuously from the sides of the nose to below the lips is considered, along with forehead wrinkles, a symbol of looking older.

The deeper the nasolabial folds become, the older you tend to look.

As facial elasticity decreases and the muscles around the mouth are used more, nasolabial folds become deeper.

In addition, due to aging, facial fat can sag and cheek volume can droop, creating deeper nasolabial lines.

There are various ways to reduce nasolabial folds.

Different methods can be used depending on the cause and depth of the wrinkles, as well as the current condition of the skin.

Among them, thread lifting is an excellent method for lifting sagging facial tissue.

Thread lifting?

Thread lifting is a procedure that lifts sagging areas by inserting medically proven safe threads.

Without making an incision in the skin, threads are inserted into the dermal layer through tiny openings, allowing the face to be physically pulled upward.

After the procedure, the threads naturally dissolve in the body and are absorbed and broken down, helping with collagen formation.

Thanks to this, over time it can help create volume and generally improve elasticity as well.

Since the treatment areas vary widely, including the upper cheeks, deep cheek area, jawline, nasolabial folds, and lines around the mouth, the treatment area can be selected according to each person’s concerns.

Various lifting methods

In the case of laser-based lifting, it is difficult to focus treatment on just one area.

At minimum, the treatment must be applied to at least one-third of the facial area in a single session.

Also, laser lifting is a procedure that aims to improve skin elasticity so that the face is naturally lifted.

For this reason, if the wrinkles are deeply etched and caused by sagging tissue, the effect may fall short of expectations.

Of course, it can be a good choice for people who want to improve overall elasticity, who do not yet have deeply set wrinkles, or who want to manage their skin so wrinkles do not form easily in daily life.

Plastic surgeries such as a facelift lift by directly raising the SMAS (muscle fascia) layer that supports the actual layers of the skin.

It is the most effective way to improve a sagging face, but it has the drawbacks of concern about incision surgery and a long downtime.

On the other hand, thread lifting has a milder effect compared to direct plastic surgery, but the downtime is short and there is less burden related to incisions.

Thread lifting is recommended for the following people.

Everyone’s skin sagging level and direction of aging are different.

Even if you are worried about nasolabial folds for the same reason, we recommend the treatment you need according to your skin condition and goals, considering the advantages and disadvantages of each lifting method.

In particular, if the cause of the nasolabial folds is noticeable facial sagging and you want visible results from a single procedure, you may be very satisfied with thread lifting.

Things to consider when getting thread lifting

There are so many types of threads used for thread lifting.

Of course, broadly speaking, they differ according to whether they have barbs and what material they are made of.

These types are used differently depending on the purpose.

If the goal is simply to lift the skin, PDO threads with barbs, called cog threads, are used.

These barbs can be used to lift effectively.

To add the effect of improving elasticity, threads made of PLLA are used.

PLLA threads can generate collagen on their own, so they can meet both goals of increasing volume and lifting.

Even when performing lifting to improve nasolabial folds, it must be carried out according to the cause and purpose, as well as the degree of facial sagging and skin condition.

Also, the effect of thread lifting varies depending on the type, thickness, and composition of the thread, but it also varies depending on the skill of the person performing the procedure.

It is a procedure in which the results can vary greatly depending on how much force is used and in what direction it is pulled.

In addition, the depth at which the thread is inserted is important.

If it is inserted too deeply, the effect may decrease. On the other hand, if it is inserted too superficially, a side effect called a “dimple” may occur, or the thread may become visible through the skin.

The doctor’s manual skill, sense, and experience-based expertise are more important than anything else for this procedure.

Unlike lifting procedures that rely to some extent on the equipment itself, such as ultrasound or radiofrequency, satisfaction can vary greatly depending on who the “provider” is.

Therefore, when choosing a hospital for the procedure, be sure to choose a doctor with extensive clinical experience.

The signs of aging that appear on our face occur in a chain reaction.

There can be many factors and causes behind deeper nasolabial folds.

Simply removing deep wrinkles may not solve the problem.

Therefore, before any procedure, you should closely assess your skin environment and look for a place that recommends the method best suited to you.

You should make a decision after thorough consultation so that you do not regret it later.

At Re:본 Plastic Surgery Clinic, the director personally conducts sufficient one-on-one consultations with patients before proceeding with treatment.

In addition, we independently produce and use our own "Ribbon Thread," which combines the advantages of existing threads while removing their drawbacks.

It is longer than conventional threads, so it causes less prominence of the cheekbones that can occur after thread lifting.

One set consists of three strands, so the pulling force and durability are stronger.

It is a safe thread approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, allowing for a more stable procedure.

If you are worried about nasolabial folds that deepen day by day, please contact Re:본 Plastic Surgery Clinic.

We will provide a customized solution for your concerns.
