It is important for every woman to remain young in soul and body. For many female representatives, 3D mesothreads for the face have become a real salvation. We propose to discuss this method of combating wrinkles, as well as the contraindications and advantages of these threads.
Mesothreads - what is it?
Mesothreads are specially processed fibers that are introduced into the epidermis in order to tighten it and increase elasticity. It is worth noting that the system is also suitable for maintaining facial contours, eliminating sagging skin in the cheek area and nasolabial folds.
This rejuvenation system was first used in Southeast Asia, where, as is known, the most sophisticated methods of rejuvenation are invented. The technique is based on the acupuncture system, thanks to which it not only restores the face, but also helps to find spiritual harmony.
Mesothreads
Mesothread therapy is one of the latest methods of facial rejuvenation, but, undoubtedly, this is a real breakthrough in modern aesthetic cosmetology. This procedure contains the basics and results of four methods of restoring youth:
- Botox beauty injections;
- Filling the voids between skin cells;
- Laser tightening;
- Oxygen exposure (most often presented in the form of special cosmetics that saturate the skin with active substances).
The most important advantage of such rejuvenation is speed. Reviews claim that mesothreads for a facelift are applied within an hour, which can be done even during your lunch break at work. Another very significant advantage is the absence of various damages on the face, such as, for example, after laser resurfacing or injections. You will be able to go outside within a couple of hours after the procedure, and there will be no negative signs of cosmetic intervention on your face.
Of course, things don't always go so smoothly. Many girls develop various bruises and bruises on their skin after mesothreads, sometimes even tumors in the eye area. This depends on the individual tolerance of the mesothread components, the quality of the materials and the professionalism of the cosmetologist.
How is a mesothread lift performed?
For tightening, special prickly mesothreads are used; they have small spikes on their surface almost at the microscopic level. The aesthetician or surgeon makes small, almost invisible incisions in the skin on the target area where the treatment is performed. Afterwards, threads are introduced into these openings, with their spines they “grab” the skin cells. Next, the doctor smoothes them out using special devices. The incisions are made with a needle that is not much thicker than a human hair, so there are no external signs of surgical intervention.

Benefits and contraindications
There is no need to use general anesthesia for the procedure, unlike laser resurfacing or direct surgery. At the same time, there are clear contraindicationsWho should not use mesothreads:
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women due to the risk of rejection;
- Girls whose blood vessels are located very close to the skin;
- Women with various skin diseases, including psoriasis, lichen, eczema, etc.
- Those with allergies to the active components of threads;
- Patients after surgery, chemotherapy, cancer patients and others with suppressed immunity.
As a rule, the results are noticeable immediately after the session, but to consolidate the effect, you need to repeat the procedure again with a break of 14-16 weeks. The photo shows that mesothreads for lifting the oval of the face really work great, but the price of the pleasure is quite high. One procedure in a professional clinic will cost you from $1000, and this is not the limit.

Sometimes the cost may vary slightly depending on how many mesothreads are needed per face or the area being treated. It is believed that the most difficult (and therefore more expensive) area to work with is the eye area, while the forehead and cheeks best accept reinforcement with 3D mesothreads.
At the same time, you need to understand that reinforcing the face with mesothreads is not a panacea for aging. The method is only suitable for small facial corrections. These are wrinkles around the eyes, on the cheeks, around the lips, etc. A simple facelift is also easy to perform. However, with serious problems, say, deep nasolabial folds or pigmentation, this system will not help.
The effect lasts for eight months after the introduction of these fibers into the epidermis, after which time they disappear without a trace. Sometimes threads can stay inside the face and work for the benefit of beauty for almost a year, but only with proper care. It is recommended to repeat the procedure once a year. Cosmetologists and girls who have tried mesothreads on themselves claim that the best effect occurs within 2-4 weeks after implementation.
What mesothreads can do:
- Tighten the skin in the forehead, eyes, cheeks;
- Eliminate small wrinkles on the neck;
- Refresh and give elasticity to the epidermis;
- Significantly correct the oval of the face;
- Nowadays, a technique is also used to impart elasticity to the epidermis on the body using mesothreads and acupuncture.
We advise you to pay special attention to the selection of a specialist who will perform mesotherapy with threads. In many ways, the entire effect of the session and its effectiveness depends on the doctor. In addition, there is less likelihood of bruises appearing after a while at the site of insertion of threads and incorrect punctures of the skin.
Lifting with mesothreads at home
We do not recommend performing such a delicate procedure as a facelift with mesothreads at home. Even after professional care, serious complications are possible, not to mention home methods. For example, quite often there is swelling of the area that has been treated. This occurs due to the fact that epidermal cells reject the foreign body. During this period, fever, loss of sleep or appetite may occur. Sometimes the body perceives the threads as an infection and begins to fight them with the help of the immune system.
Subsequently - swelling of the face, redness, severe itching. If any of these symptoms appear within 24 hours after non-invasive thread rejuvenation, you should immediately run to your doctor.
How to care for your face after mesothread therapy
- Wash only with purified water with special mild tonics and lotions (preferably with active oxygen);
- Try to use cosmetics with a high level of UV protection in your makeup;
- Pay special attention to oxygen masks, they will help extend the life of the threads;
- Do not use hyaluronic rejuvenation after mesotherapy threads for the face for at least six months;
- Laser resurfacing, abrasive scrubbing, and acid peeling can prematurely dissolve threads;
- Watch your diet, reduce the amount of coffee, alcohol, nicotine, sweets, etc. as much as possible.
Now more and more girls are inclined to think that non-surgical cosmetology is an excellent alternative to surgical interventions. It is fast, relatively safer and quite effective for removing fine wrinkles. Write in the comments your tips and reviews about mesothreads for the face, as well as your experience of performing this procedure at home and in the salon.
In modern cosmetology, mesothreads have been used for face lifting for more than 40 years. The thread rejuvenation procedure continues to be constantly improved - lifting techniques, types and materials of threads are changing.
Lifting with mesothreads is a real salvation for women whose skin has been subjected to age-related tests. In cases where the signs of wilting are very obvious, the popular Botox injections and biorevitalization procedure may not cope with the situation. All layers of the dermis require significant tension and, as a result, visual rejuvenation of the face. It is for this purpose that special anti-aging threads were created. The developers of the latest generation of mesothreads are considered to be specialists from South Korea. What are these materials? And how does the procedure of implanting threads into the dermis take place?
What is mesothread?
Mesothreads for face lifting are special hypoallergenic devices made from polyoxanone. The latter is considered a self-absorbable suture material, which has been used in medicine for more than 30 years. This material is considered completely safe. The threads are coated with polylactic acid, which provides the skin with a moisturizing effect in the places where the material is implanted. The thickness of the needle and thread does not exceed 0.3 mm. The needle is made of high quality medical steel and is very flexible. This allows the doctor to work in different layers of the dermis.
What are these mysterious mesothreads for a facelift?
Types of threads
To get the maximum effect from the thread lifting procedure, it would be useful for the patient to find out what kind of mesothreads there are for face lifting. After all, for each client the doctor selects a specific type of materials, taking into account her age and skin characteristics. Thus, in cosmetology practice, 3 main types of threads are used:
Linear (smooth) thread type. It is considered the main, basic type of mesothreads. They are used to increase the level of skin elasticity by stimulating collagen production in the space around it. In other words, such threads are considered preventive because they slow down the aging process of the skin. Most often they are used for:
- increasing the elasticity of the dermis;
- correction of small circumlabial wrinkles;
- changes in lip shape;
- elimination of double chin;
- strengthening some areas of the neck.
Such surgical materials for face lifting are characterized by virtually painless insertion. The length of linear mesothreads is 25-90 mm.
Screw (spiral) threads for face lift. The use of such threads allows you to achieve the best results in tightening your facial skin. This effect is achieved due to the ability of these materials to take their original (spiral) shape after injection. Screw threads are used when necessary:
- double chin correction;
- raising eyebrows;
- elimination of linear wrinkles;
- changing facial contours;
- correction of deep nasolabial folds.
The average length of the threads varies from 50 to 60 mm. Mesotherapy can be carried out either separately with screw threads or in combination with other types of materials.
Serrated threads for face lift. In another way, these materials are called needle threads with notches. They are considered the most powerful threads that provide the maximum degree of face lift. The peculiarity of such threads is the presence of bidirectional teeth located along the entire length of the material. Since the notches are directed in different directions, this allows the products to reliably fix and strengthen the fabric frame of the face. Such materials are perfect for:
- lower and middle face lifts;
- stretching the lateral lines of the neck;
- contouring not only of the face, but also of the body;
- eliminating facial asymmetry.
The introduction of such threads is considered the most effective, but also the most painful. Often, when using these threads, additional anesthesia is used for the treated areas. Many patients claim that mesotherapy with barbed threads takes about half an hour. However, the procedure time is relative and depends on the skill of the cosmetologist, the type of threads used and the individual sensitivity of the client.
Indications and contraindications
The following skin problems are considered indications for the use of mesothreads for face lifting:
- Folds in the ear area (often the result of sudden weight loss).
- Vertical and horizontal wrinkles on the forehead (when eliminating them, mesothreads act like Botox, only with a longer action).
- Deep nasolacrimal grooves.
- Pronounced creases in the nasolabial folds.
- Ptosis (drooping) of skin tissues - chin and cheeks.
- Periorbital wrinkles (“crow’s feet”, folds on the eyelids).
- Deep wrinkles on the chin, neck and chest.
- Sagging skin on the stomach, arms, buttocks.
At the same time, the procedure for implanting threads has a number of contraindications. Thus, you cannot resort to thread mesotherapy in cases where:
- Infectious diseases (chronic and acute).
- Skin diseases or inflammatory processes in the treated area.
- Oncological diseases.
- Problems with blood clotting.
- Pathologies associated with problems in the formation of connective tissue (lupus erythematosus, scleroderma).
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding period. During this period, the body may react ambiguously to the intervention and bioreinforcement will not bring the expected result.
- Excess fat in the problem area. A thread lift in such situations will not eliminate the problem; the collagen frame simply cannot withstand the pressure. Initially, you need to get rid of subcutaneous fat.
- Diabetes.
- Individual intolerance to anesthesia.
This is interesting. Many women are interested in the question - From what age Can I do a facelift with threads? The aging process of each dermis is individual, but on average, age-related skin changes begin to appear after 25 years. Thus, you can use mesothreads for skin rejuvenation starting from 30-35 years old.
How is the procedure done?
If we talk about the procedure time, the doctor will work on the problem area with threads for an average of 40 minutes - 1.5 hours. The procedure consists of 2 main stages.
Preparatory. Includes consultation with a doctor. The specialist determines problem areas and the required number of threads, and announces the cost of the work. In addition, the master must explain in detail to the patient the course of the procedure and the intricacies of the rehabilitation period.
Important! In the preparatory period, the patient must undergo a series of tests. This will help the doctor determine how the woman tolerates the anesthesia and whether she has any allergic reactions to any materials.
Actually a thread lift. The doctor applies a preliminary “marking” to the patient’s skin - it indicates the direction of movement of the threads. The facial area is treated with an antiseptic, and local anesthesia is administered if necessary.
Next, the master pierces the skin in the temple area with needles and places the thread under the patient’s skin. The material is secured to the bone with extreme care and then tightened.
Useful video about mesothreads:
How many mesothreads do you need on your face?
Considering that the patient will have to pay for each thread used by a cosmetologist, it is useful to find out how many mesothreads are needed for a facelift. Of course, more accurate information on this issue can be obtained from a cosmetologist. After all, the amount of material directly depends on the condition of the skin and the area to be worked on. And, of course, it is necessary to take into account the type of threads used.
- for the eyebrow area – 5-10 pcs.;
- to eliminate a double chin – about 15;
- to tighten the oval face you need at least 20-30 threads;
- For each side of the face (cheekbone, cheek lift) it will take about 3-10 threads.
With this they read: Ultra face lifting.
Rehabilitation period
On average, rehabilitation after a facelift takes from 2 weeks to 1 month.
The first time after the procedure, patients are often bothered by subcutaneous depressions and tubercles. This condition is considered normal; usually such problems resolve on their own. The places where the threads were implanted may hurt and lose sensitivity for some time. Skin tightness also often appears during this period.
In order for your face to heal faster, you should take note of some medical advice:
- The first days after the procedure, it is permissible to use antibiotics and painkillers.
- For about 30 days you should sleep only on your back, placing several pillows under your neck.
- For the first few days, do not touch your face unless necessary.
- You need to stop eating hot food for a month.
- Restrain facial expressions as much as possible.
- For the first week, it is helpful to apply cold compresses to painful areas.
How long does the effect last?
Facelift with mesothreads is a procedure that provides a long-term effect compared to biorevitalization and Botox injections. Of course, the time during which the thread lifting effect lasts is purely individual. This indicator depends on the type of threads, the professionalism of the doctor and the characteristics of the client. On average, the action of the threads is enough to provide the face with a young and fresh look for 2 to 5 years. Some patients can boast of a longer effect - about 7 years of continuous “wearing” of threads.
Possible complications and consequences
As with any other effect on the skin, thread lifting does not exclude cosmetic consequences, namely:
- hematomas and bruises (usually go away on their own);
- facial expression disorders;
- introduction of infection;
- papules and dents in the places where the needle was removed;
- changes in the facial contour.
Price of procedures
How much does such a popular and effective facelift with mesothreads cost? The final price depends on the policy of the beauty salon in which the procedure will be performed and the amount of work performed. On average, you will have to pay from 700 to 1,000 rubles for one smooth thread, and from 2,500 to 5,00 rubles for a needle thread. Thus, a facelift with ordinary threads will cost from 20 to 50,000 rubles. The use of barbed or 3D threads will require a much larger financial investment.
Photos before and after
Of course, in the vast majority of cases, thread lifting has an amazing effect. You can verify this thanks to multiple photos before and after a facelift.
Patient reviews
“About 5 years ago I agreed to hyaluronic acid injections and took them in courses for a long time. After listening to a lot of laudatory reviews, I decided to implant mesothreads under the skin. I was counting on a miraculous effect and the fact that I wouldn’t have to do the procedure often, as is the case with biorevitalizans. The thread lift procedure is quite painful and, in my opinion, not very pleasant. There is an effect, I don’t argue, but in my opinion, after an injection of hyaluronic acid, the result is no worse, only it comes out much cheaper. I hope the threads will last quite a long time.”
“Not so long ago I discovered a network of small wrinkles on my face, I was very upset, because I am only 30 years old. I began to look for ways to prevent age-related skin changes. I turned to a cosmetologist recommended by a friend. He advised plastic surgery, but I am against such radical methods. After some time, I learned about mesothread lifting. Another month was spent weighing all the pros and cons and searching for a competent master. Finally, I made up my mind. After the procedure was completed, there were, of course, some bruises on my face, but they quickly went away. All my friends are sure that I had blepharoplasty, my skin began to look so young. I will definitely continue to have thread lifts again.”
Margarita, 31 years old
“With age, the contour of the face became less clear - the oval began to round and sag in some places. Until recently, I put off solving the problem because I am terribly afraid of any operations. Finally, my cosmetologist persuaded me to have a mesothread lift. I agreed. When all the “side effects” of the procedure disappeared from my face (about a month later), I was shocked - the contour of my face became clear and toned, it was as if I looked 20 years younger. A wonderful technique, I am very pleased with the result.”
“I inserted threads into the area between the eyebrows. Hematomas and bumps appeared at the puncture sites, but after a while they went away on their own. The effect is very pleasing, the face is significantly fresher and younger. However, I consider myself lucky - I ended up with a competent master. I think a lot depends on the qualifications of the cosmetologist in this matter.”
“I had a lift with mesothreads 5 days ago. There is still a bruise under the right eye, but almost everything is gone on the left side. I can already see the result. I turned to the procedure due to swelling in the cheekbone area. I had 5 threads implanted on each side. Of course, there is an effect, but, to be honest, I expected more. Perhaps the procedure was not suitable for me specifically.”
Lifting with mesothreads is a worthy response to age-related changes in facial skin. With the help of modern cosmetic materials, there is a very high probability of forgetting about skin aging for several years. Of course, the choice of a specialist and compliance with the rules of the rehabilitation period are of great importance. Mesothreads are an excellent procedure for women who do not want to go under the knife of a plastic surgeon.
Anti-aging procedures have long become a common part of women’s lives, especially after 30 years. Aesthetic cosmetology offers a large selection of non-surgical techniques that give an effect comparable to plastic surgery. One of them is a facelift with mesothreads. Thread rejuvenation is a relatively new method; it has been used for only about 15 years. During this time, techniques, types and materials have changed. In 2011, an innovation was the use of mesothreads - fibers made of biodegradable material - for face lifting.
What is a facelift with mesothreads?
Mesothreads are fibers made from the self-absorbable surgical suture material polydiaxone (PDO). The procedure for implanting them into the epidermis is called thread lifting (translated from English as thread lift), which is one of the types of thread face lifting. Polydiaxone is considered a hypoallergenic material and is not rejected by our body. The threads are so thin that they do not feel like something foreign; hematomas or swelling rarely occur at the site of their implantation. Another name for the material is 3D threads. The coating of the polydiaxone thread made of polylactic or polyglycolic acid ensures moisturization of the skin areas at the implantation sites.
Mesothreads are inserted into the epidermis with the thinnest surgical needle made of flexible medical steel, allowing the cosmetologist to work in different layers of the skin.
During plastic surgery, the surgeon tightens the skin, removing any excess that has formed. Threadlifting allows you to achieve the same result with minimal trauma to the dermis.
Mesothreads do not allow weakened skin to sag, holding it together with an additional frame. But this is not the only essence of the procedure. Biodegradable polylactic threads dissolve within several months, and in their place areas of new connective tissue are formed. Thus, by increasing collagen synthesis, the body responds to the rapid decomposition of polydiaxone. The further tightening effect is provided by your own internal resources.
Mesothreads are inserted to a depth of no more than 4 mm, forming a supporting frame
Another type of thread lifting is practiced - acupuncture. Threads are introduced into bioactive points, enhancing the cosmetic effect of the procedure. As a result:
- local metabolism and blood circulation are stimulated;
- skin rashes and pastosity (swelling) of the face are reduced;
- subcutaneous fat is leveled;
- sagging tissues are toned.
In case of profound age-related changes, lifting with mesothreads is combined with plastic surgery - sagging skin is eliminated with a scalpel, and wrinkles are corrected with threads.
Types of mesothreads
Mesothreads have several modifications, each of which is intended for certain areas and type of correction.
Table: types of threads and their purposes
Type of thread | Application area | Purpose |

Linear thin threads are considered basic; they are often used to prevent sagging skin - they slow down its aging. Thin threads tighten the skin in the corners of the eyes.
Gold and platinum threads provide a more lasting effect compared to mesothreads
In addition to gold and platinum, partially degradable materials are used for threadlifting. The basis of this thread is polypropylene or Teflon. It has knots and cones that act as anchors, clinging to the fabric and fixing the thread in a certain position. They consist of absorbable materials - polylactic acid and glycolide. They leave behind new connective tissue. A significant disadvantage of using conical threads is the risk of formation of tubercles and prolonged swelling of the face during the rehabilitation period. Partially degradable threads are used to correct already clearly visible signs of aging, but up to 50 years.
Mesothreads give a less durable effect compared to metal or polypropylene. They are placed close to the surface of the skin and do not have such strong adhesion to the tissues. Polylactic threads are more suitable for preventing age-related skin changes. This type of lifting is recommended for people aged 30 to 40 years.
Each type of thread lifting has its own advantages and disadvantages. A cosmetologist will help with the choice, taking into account the patient’s age, the severity of skin changes, its condition and face shape.
Indications and contraindications for mesotherapy
Beauty injections and hardware cosmetology procedures cannot cope with all age-related skin changes. Threadlifting is perfect for those who no longer benefit from injection techniques, but do not yet want to resort to plastic surgery. Mesothreads, which provide a long-lasting cumulative effect, become a salvation for women. Indications for thread lifting:
- deep linear wrinkles on the forehead (the tightening effect is similar to the use of Botox, only longer);
- deep nasolabial folds;
- folds of skin near the ears formed as a result of sudden weight loss;
- wrinkles around the eyes;
- sagging skin of the cheeks, chin, neck;
- deep wrinkles on the neck.
Using the threadlifting procedure, you can get rid of wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, on the neck and other age-related skin changes
Contraindications for insertion of mesothreads
There are temporary and absolute contraindications for bioreinforcement. It is strictly forbidden to resort to this method of rejuvenation for people suffering from:
- systemic connective tissue diseases (scleroderma, lupus erythematosus);
- diabetes mellitus;
- increased tendency to form scars;
- pathologies accompanied by decreased blood clotting;
- malignant tumors of any location;
- allergies to painkillers.
- acute period of infectious disease;
- pregnancy and lactation;
- fatty deposits at the site where the threads are implanted (in this case the procedure is ineffective);
- menstruation;
- inflammation, microtrauma and exacerbation of skin diseases in the treatment area.
There are no strict age restrictions after 18 years. But cosmetologists advise resorting to a facelift no earlier than at the age of 30–35. Until this time, less traumatic methods are sufficient to maintain youthful skin.
Mesothreads for face lift - pros and cons: before and after photos
When choosing thread lifting as a rejuvenating procedure, you must remember that threads correct only skin defects without affecting the muscle layer. Therefore, not all problems can be solved with the help of mesothreads. They will not cope with changes in facial shape caused by excess fat deposits and deep folds formed due to sagging muscle tissue.
Mesothreads are effective for face lifting between the ages of 30 and 40 years
Cosmetologists warn that with age, the effectiveness of mesothread lifting decreases. The maximum recommended threshold is 50 years. The disadvantages of the technique include the possibility of complications. Although in most cases the patients themselves or the cosmetologist who is poorly versed in the thread-lifting technique are to blame.
The advantage of bioreinforcement is that mesothreads are compatible with almost any cosmetic procedure.
Advantages of a facelift with mesothreads:
- possibility of carrying out the procedure in the salon (no need for hospitalization);
- short rehabilitation period;
- speed of implementation - from 30 to 60 minutes;
- gradual increase in cosmetic effect.
The procedure is not very painful and is well tolerated by patients. Compared to gold and platinum predecessors The advantage of mesothreads is that they can be tightened repeatedly as needed.

Preparation and carrying out the procedure
Preparation for lifting begins with an examination by a cosmetologist. He will determine the general condition of the skin, areas in need of correction and the number of threads. Before cosmetic surgery, it is necessary to undergo a medical examination to avoid health consequences if there are contraindications. A week before the procedure, it is advisable to exclude spicy and salty foods from the diet. This will help avoid prolonged swelling of the face after lifting.
The procedure begins by applying an anesthetic solution or cream to the face. If the intervention is extensive, injections with an anesthetic drug may be necessary. The doctor marks the lines on the face along which the threads will be implanted. They are inserted under the skin with needles.
Video: how the thread lifting procedure works
Effect after tightening
The first changes are noticeable within a day after lifting. The surface of the skin is smoothed, wrinkles are smoothed out. But it will take more than one month before the final result - the threads must dissolve and start the internal rejuvenation process. Practicing cosmetologists say that the pronounced effect of smooth mesothreads is observed from 2.5 to 11 months. To maintain it, it is recommended to conduct an additional tightening session after 1–3 months. In general, the effect can last up to 2 years.
Possible complications
Sometimes it is not possible to avoid side effects and complications from mesothreads. The most common of them are hematomas at the puncture site and swelling of the face. They do not need to be treated; they will go away on their own within a few days. If the bruises do not go away for a long time, you need to use absorbable ointments or gels (for example, Troxevasin). Edema is treated with diuretics. But their choice must be agreed with a doctor.
Increased sensitivity, stiffness and slight pain will be felt for several days - the skin must get used to the foreign body, which is mesothreads. When healing is complete, the discomfort disappears, and the threads are not felt upon palpation.
The bumpiness of the skin after lifting is explained by the fact that the threads take the desired position within 7 days after the procedure
Bumps and lumpiness most often occur with the introduction of spiral mesothreads. They do not immediately take the desired position; this will take about 7 days. The bumps should disappear at the end of the rehabilitation period. If this does not happen, you need to contact your cosmetologist again. He must eliminate this defect.
More serious complications are impaired facial expressions, infection at the puncture site, and the formation of papules on it. An incorrectly done lift can disrupt the symmetry of the face. The listed problems can be eliminated, but this should only be done under the supervision of the cosmetologist who performed the operation.
Rehabilitation after thread lifting
The recovery period after the introduction of mesothreads, if the procedure is performed correctly, lasts no more than 7–12 days. During this time the following restrictions apply:
- the first day you cannot use decorative cosmetics;
- do not touch your face for 12–20 hours;
- do not smoke for at least several hours after the procedure;
- for three days avoid baths, saunas and swimming pools, solariums and sunbathing;
- Try not to let your face touch the pillow while you sleep.
During rehabilitation, you should not leave your skin without care. You can wash your face with soap only a day after mesothreads are implanted. After another two days, you can start using tonic or lotion. It’s good to make oxygen masks for a month. When going outside, be sure to apply sunscreen with a high degree of SPF to your face. Sports activities can be resumed no earlier than two weeks after thread lifting.
Limitations on facial expressions are due to the fact that mesothreads are attached under the skin only at the ends. The middle part remains movable. To maintain their correct position during the week, you need to avoid any emotions. Physical activity causes involuntary tension in the facial muscles, which can also change the position of the threads. To avoid increased swelling, it is recommended to give up alcohol and strong coffee for a month. Any cosmetic procedures associated with pressure or aggressive influence - massage, mechanical or chemical peeling - are contraindicated.
After lifting with mesothreads, you should not carry out anti-aging procedures with hyaluronic acid. It is an active substance and accelerates the resorption of polydiaxone. This will reduce the duration of the tightening effect.
Mesothreads for face lift: reviews
I am 45 years old. Objectively speaking, I look good. But, of course, time takes its toll. I became dissatisfied with the oval of my face, or, as they say, “jowls,” but there’s no escaping gravity. I decided to correct my jawline. Mesothreads promised an ideal contour, collagen production and other benefits. I chose a good material at the salon on the advice of a specialist and put 10 pieces on both sides of the face (the quantity was also on advice). A special anesthesia cream is used, the procedure is truly painless. After the procedure there were huge bruises and swelling. But this does not depend on the skill of the specialist or the quality of the material, each organism simply has its own characteristics. The procedure is not cheap. I was looking forward to the result. The bruises have gone away, but the swelling remains. The jowls that I wanted to get rid of for some strange reason became even larger. I called the clinic, they told me that I had to wait, the swelling would go away, and I would only see the result in about a month, when the material started working. In every mirror I passed I saw only my sagging cheeks, the problem just got worse. One would think that this is psychosis, but I took a “before” photo. In general, the threads did not help me. Yes, the swelling subsided and that was already a joy. I had to miss several events, since the rehabilitation period clearly did not correspond to what was promised.

I am a little over 40 years old. But of course, now, at the end of winter, age is felt
Pale flaccid skin, the oval swam, some folds appeared... In general, I stopped pleasing my appearance. For a long time, of course, I wanted to get my face in order, but the fear of surgeons and possible complications overpowered my desire to look younger. But in this case, feminine curiosity haunted me, because my friend’s face not only became younger, there were no traces of the procedure performed, no artificiality or unnaturalness visible on it. Therefore, in the end, I made up my mind and went to the medical center. What else made me decide, besides the sight of my friend? Of course, the fact that this was a medical center was captivating! Not a salon, not a hairdresser in the yard, but a normal medical institution with a license, doctors with specialized education, etc. In general. When I came for a consultation, it turned out that not everything is so simple, there are a lot of subtleties! It turns out that not all meso threads are the same: there are mono, spiral, with notches... Each of them is suitable for correcting a particular defect. In addition, a lot depends on the accuracy of insertion of each thread. My consultation with a cosmetologist lasted more than 30 minutes, but that’s not the main thing. The most amazing thing is that I, a skeptic by nature, suddenly immediately wanted to try this method on myself. I signed up for mesothreads, choosing those that were most suitable for me. The doctor who inserted the threads turned out to be super professional. Before the procedure, I began to shake a little, but she spoke to me and calmed me down. I panicked in vain. All manipulations took about an hour, everything was pain-free. There were a few unpleasant sensations, but they were not so much from the insertion of the threads, but from my expectation of something terrible
Of course, for the first three days there was a slight discomfort and pain in the places where the threads were inserted, but the result! Despite the fact that the effect should be visible only after 3 weeks, the very next day it became noticeable how the face was tightened. And a week later they called me “girl” in the store! It's like I've grown wings! Thank you very much to this medical center, I am now happy with my face, I need to take care of my figure

ADVANTAGES: reduces naivety DISADVANTAGES: adds age To my misfortune, I placed these ill-fated mesothreads! Now for 2 years I have been “admiring” the bumps near my mouth - two on each side - terrible!! I still can't believe it's me. But she looked good, I really wanted this “collagen”, but these are simple scars under the skin! I beg you, do not be fooled by brilliant advertising - this is a cynical scam! I envy those for whom these threads simply did not help! They also mutilated me!

Mesothreads are universal - they are able to eliminate minor cosmetic defects and form a 3D frame in case of severe weakening and sagging of the skin. This is what makes the procedure popular among women over 30 years old.
