How accurate is the thread lift simulation?

The simulation models the lifting vectors and tissue repositioning achieved with absorbable PDO threads. It shows effects on jowls, mid-face, and neck contour.

How long do thread lift results last?

Thread lift results typically last 12-18 months. The threads dissolve over 6 months but stimulate collagen production for extended benefit. The simulation shows the immediate post-procedure appearance.

Is thread lift an alternative to a facelift?

Thread lifts provide moderate lifting for early aging signs. For significant laxity, a surgical facelift achieves more dramatic, longer-lasting results. Thread lifts work well for patients not ready for surgery or as maintenance after a facelift.

Overview

A thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that lifts and tightens sagging facial tissue using absorbable sutures. Barbed or smooth threads are inserted beneath the skin to physically lift tissue and stimulate collagen production for ongoing improvement.

Three main thread materials are used: PDO (polydioxanone) — absorbed in 6-8 months with results lasting 1-2 years; PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) — stronger collagen stimulation lasting 2-3 years; and PCL (polycaprolactone) — the longest-lasting option with results up to 3-4 years.

Our simulator visualizes thread placement trajectories and the resulting lift effect on the midface, jowls, nasolabial folds, neck, and brow. It models the degree of lift achievable with each thread type and the expected collagen stimulation timeline.

Pros & Cons

Pros

+低侵襲 — ほとんどの患者様が24〜48時間以内に日常活動に復帰できます
+時間の経過とともにコラーゲン産生により、即時の可視的リフト効果が得られます
+外科的フェイスリフトより低リスク — 全身麻酔不要です
+処置時間が短く、通常1時間以内で完了します
+外科的フェイスリフトより初期費用が大幅に低くなります

Cons

−結果は1〜3年しか持続せず、繰り返しの治療が必要です
−著明な皮膚弛緩には効果が不十分 — 軽度のリフト効果のみ提供します
−糸の移動、皮膚のしわ、皮膚下の糸が透けて見えるリスクがあります
−対称性の確保が難しく、不均一な結果になる可能性があります
−結果は施術者の技量に大きく依存します

Who Is This For?

外科的フェイスリフトのダウンタイムと費用をかけずに、早期から中等度の顔のたるみに対して可視的なリフト効果を希望される方に適しています。
