Mesothread springs before and after photos

The general group of mesothreads includes spiral threads for face lifting, and reviews about it are the most positive in comparison with other procedures in this area, although it has only been practiced for a short time. When choosing this type of operation, the cosmetologist pays attention to the condition of the skin. There is no age limit.

It is precisely because the threads are suitable for absolutely any age that this procedure is one of the most popular. In addition, even on aging skin that requires total plastic surgery, you can get a positive result without surgery, scars or incisions.

Indications and contraindications

Spiral threads for face lift help to achieve maximum results during surgery. This happens because the threads are able to stretch and contract during the procedure due to their shape. Their length is about 60 mm. They are used both independently and in combination with other types of threads.

They are used after 40 years in the areas:

1. neckline;
2. chin (remove double chin and sagging);
3. eyebrow lines;
4. T-zones of the face.

Lifting with wave mesothreads replaces a full-fledged surgical intervention, and the skin itself becomes more toned, smooth and elastic.

All procedures have a number of contraindications, which you need to read very carefully before deciding on it - otherwise complications cannot be avoided. Any cosmetic procedures during pregnancy and lactation are strictly prohibited.

Other contraindications include:

1. oncology and malignant neoplasms;
2. mental disorders;
3. inflammatory processes in the body (viral and bacterial infection);
4. neoplasms and inflammations on the skin;
5. allergy to anesthesia components;
6. predisposition to the formation of scars;
7. hemophilia;
8. diabetes;
9. dysfunction of the thyroid gland;
10. reduced immunity;
11. period of menstruation.

Important: it is worth noting that during menstruation, as well as a week before and after, although thread lifting can be done, it is not recommended - due to hormonal changes in the body during this period, water exchange is disrupted, which is why swelling and bruises may not remain for long on the face.

Complications after surgery

The consequences and complications of thread lifting for spiral options are not much different from other options.

There are a number of consequences that are worth expect, agreeing to such a procedure.

These include:

1. hematomas;
2. swelling;
3. redness and inflammation at the puncture sites.

Such consequences are a natural reaction of the body to surgical intervention. But it is worth remembering that they can last up to two weeks - if swelling and bruising do not go away for a longer period of time, the wounds are swollen, bleeding and pus is released - you need to urgently contact the clinic where the operation was performed or an ambulance.

There are also more serious consequences, because of which you may have to remove or tighten threads. They are caused by a number of factors:

1. low-quality raw materials for the operation;
2. unprofessionalism of the surgeon;
3. violation of the rules of hygiene and skin care after the procedure.

Such complications include:

1. prolonged hematomas and swelling;
2. allergic reactions;
3. blood poisoning;
4. inflammatory processes in the body;
5. purulent inflammation on the skin;
6. facial asymmetry;
7. pinched facial nerve;
8. skin necrosis;
9. bleeding due to vascular damage;
10. severe and prolonged pain;
11. thread breaks.

The thread frame can be removed surgically, but this procedure more complicated than installing them. That is why it is necessary to strictly follow all the recommendations of a surgeon or cosmetologist for skin care - and also be absolutely sure of the chosen clinic and doctor. In a prestigious clinic, operations will cost more, but you cannot save on your own health.

General recommendations for skin care after the procedure:

1. scrubs, peeling, laser peeling - anything that injures the skin should be postponed for a long time;
2. do not combine with hyaluronic acid injections for six months after surgery;
3. you can do facial baths with anti-inflammatory drugs;
4. apply anti-inflammatory cream to puncture sites;
5. use oxygen-enriched cosmetics;
6. use only boiled soft water for washing;
7. exclude alcohol and caffeine-containing drinks;
8. exclude canned food, sweets - anything that causes swelling;
9. refuse to visit the sauna, solarium pool;
10. Do not expose to direct sunlight or windy weather.

Following a simple series of recommendations will help avoid serious complications.

Photos before and after surgery

In the photo of a face lift with threads, you can see the positive effect of the operation.

These changes are as follows:

1. the overall contour of the face improves;
2. the skin becomes more elastic;
3. subsequent collagen production improves overall skin quality;
4. getting rid of wrinkles;
5. visual facial rejuvenation.

It is important to remember that the use of such a procedure only leads to a general improvement in the quality of the skin. Thread lifting is not capable of completely changing the contour of the face or correcting very serious age-related changes - this will require plastic surgery.

Recommendations from experts

Threads for lifting the oval face are generally very popular among cosmetologists and plastic surgeons. This is facilitated by their positive properties:

1. spiral threads are hypoallergenic;
2. less traumatic compared to plastic surgery;
3. the threads are introduced under the skin through thin punctures, which heal quickly;
4. an experienced doctor is able to carry out the procedure with minimal consequences;
5. there is no need for observation in a hospital;
6. the result lasts from 1 year to 4 years.

It is worth reading reviews from cosmetologists and plastic surgeons taken from thematic forums.

Reviews from cosmetologists

“I am a dermatovenerologist, cosmetologist, and I have been using thread lifting in my practice for several years. The method itself is unique - I can only compare it with Botox. The result is quite similar to using fillers.

The procedure is not complicated, it can also be performed by cosmetologists - because of this, clients are more willing to apply for thread lifting: they are not afraid that this is some kind of serious operation, after which they need a long recovery. Of course, you also need to contact competent specialists - you simply won’t be able to save money here.

I prefer to combine thread lifting with hyaluronic acid injections after some time - an integrated approach helps to achieve an excellent result, which can be compared to a full-fledged surgical operation.”

“It is important to remember that thread lifts include many different options that serve different functions in aesthetic medicine. If you take thread lifting, then it should be performed in the clinic - you need complete sterility and a dressing room. The reinforcing or biorevitalizing variety is something that can be performed by cosmetologists.

This technique is new, the field is constantly expanding and developing. Nowadays, spiral threads are no longer installed in the middle layer of the dermis, but in the hypodermis and subcutaneous fat - which is less traumatic for the body.

In my practice, I use spiral threads for patients whose facial contours are severely deformed due to aging. Before this, you need to carefully prepare the fabrics. This method is good for patients who have a good layer of subcutaneous tissue.”

Reviews from plastic surgeons

“Thread lifting, unfortunately, is not a magic wand that can once and for all deprive the patient of all age-related changes and return the “baby look” to the face. It is suitable for people whose aging process has just begun - and there is no need to resort to full-fledged plastic surgery. They also contact us again, 4-5 years after the previous facelift with threads.

The main advantage of tightening with spiral threads is their versatility; they can be used in several areas of the face. They are usually used to lift the midface to counterbalance ptosis. Folds in the nasolabial area, wrinkles, and folds in the tear trough area are also removed. As a result, it is possible to correct the contour of the face by outlining the cheekbones.

If used in the lower part of the face, then such threads help remove jowls and double chins - but it is better to use other methods for this area (such as SMAS lift).”

“People often contact me for consultations on thread lifting. It is used not only in the face area, but also in the hips, chest, and waist areas - but this procedure is carried out only in plastic surgery clinics; and this operation falls into the category of full-fledged paramedicine.

Very often you can hear the most negative reviews about this procedure. This happens because the expected results are too high compared to the real ones. Many women and men, resorting to this procedure, automatically consider it the answer to everything. Therefore, it is worth remembering that a thread lift is a preliminary procedure before surgery. It helps to refresh the face - but it does not completely remove all age-related changes.

Other negative reviews usually include complaints that the result does not last as long as the cosmetologist or surgeon promised - only 4-8 months. Or that after the operation the face began to look even worse due to an unnatural shape or unnatural facial expressions. However, the latter is only a temporary phenomenon, while the former can be solved by choosing a competent specialist.”

As you can see, in general, reviews of thread facelift using spiral threads positive. But we must not forget that before making a decision you should consult with attending physician and cosmetologist, whom you trust.

Customer Reviews

Reviews from those who have undergone such a procedure are extremely important - because it is from them that one can understand how effective the procedure is.

“With age, the skin in the area of ​​the cheeks and cheekbones began to sag significantly, the face lost its shape - and as a result, I finally decided to undergo the procedure. I had special braids inserted for tightening - and the procedure, I must admit, is not very pleasant, but I am happy with the result. I live near Moscow, I had it done at a clinic in the capital on the advice of a friend - and the whole procedure cost me 65 thousand rubles. The swelling lasted for about a week, but then went away. The redness is still there - but the doctor said that this is normal and everything is just healing. You need to prepare for the fact that your face will hurt even after the procedure. They said that you can only sleep on your back and not laugh at first.”

“A friend recommended a clinic where she herself had surgery. They did it for her with omega threads; for me they used others with hooks. I tightened my cheeks and cheekbones, but at the same time the folds on my forehead went away and the skin around my eyes smoothed out. Everything is fine, anesthesia was administered, but it was very painful after the procedure itself at first. I took pills. And you don’t need to plan anything a month in advance, because your face looks swollen and lumpy - and you need to wait until the rehabilitation period is over.”

“I had a frame made using spiral threads in the middle part of my face. I would also like to fix my neck, but the doctor said that another procedure is needed there. At first, the bruises did not go away for a long time, but then it turned out that this was due to my period - I did the procedure too early after it ended. I applied a special cream afterwards and everything went away. I’m younger, fresher, it’s very nice to feel beautiful again!”

“I'm disappointed, I expected a lot more. I read on the Internet where they say that you can almost return to your golden 18 this way – and I believed it. The face, of course, began to look fresher - but the operation is painful, it costs so much money - and the result is the same as from simple injections. Moreover, I had to endure it for almost a month while the swelling went away. I don't know why everyone is so excited. It’s good that at least there were no complications!”

“I noticed that I began to age very quickly - but this is understandable, I work in a stressful job, and I also smoke. The skin turned yellow, became unpleasant, and wrinkles became especially noticeable. I went to the clinic, they examined me, gave me advice, set a date - the whole operation went quite well, it was unpleasant, but not painful. I chose spiral threads, they seemed to have the best reviews - and in the end I needed about 30 pieces. At first there were marks under the skin, but after about a month they went away. I am very pleased with the result! I wish I could quit smoking now :).”

Spiral threads for face lifting are a controversial issue, and only a professional surgeon or cosmetologist can give a final answer. Before making a decision, carefully weigh the pros and cons of this procedure. If it doesn’t suit you for one reason or another, cosmetology today offers a wide range of services.

After 30 years, age-related changes are difficult to hide with the help of decorative cosmetics. To maintain freshness and elasticity of the skin for a long time, you can use innovative cosmetic procedures. Implantation of mesothreads allows you to achieve a pronounced lifting effect in 1 session. Over the course of several months, the results will increase. The implants are made of absorbable material that breaks down into water and carbon dioxide after 6–8 months.

Thanks to the reinforcement with threads, collagen synthesis is activated, a dense frame is formed that maintains elasticity for 2–4 years. The procedure is prescribed for unexpressed age-related changes, to restore elasticity, prevent deep wrinkles, and tissue ptosis. The low-traumatic procedure allows you to reduce rehabilitation to a few days. Combines well with other hardware and invasive methods aimed at collagen synthesis. Next, let's look at the threads of the spring for a facelift.

Non-surgical face lifting and modeling.

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:

1. local metabolism and blood circulation are stimulated;
2. skin rashes and pastosity (swelling) of the face are reduced;
3. subcutaneous fat is leveled;
4. sagging tissues are toned.

In case of deep 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

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:

1. deep linear wrinkles on the forehead (the tightening effect is similar to the use of Botox, only longer);
2. deep nasolabial folds;
3. folds of skin near the ears formed as a result of sudden weight loss;
4. wrinkles around the eyes;
5. sagging skin of the cheeks, chin, neck;
6. 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:

1. systemic connective tissue diseases (scleroderma, lupus erythematosus);
2. diabetes mellitus;
3. increased tendency to form scars;
4. pathologies accompanied by decreased blood clotting;
5. malignant tumors of any location;
6. allergies to painkillers.

1. acute period of infectious disease;
2. pregnancy and lactation;
3. fatty deposits at the site where the threads are implanted (in this case, the procedure is ineffective);
4. menstruation;
5. 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:

1. possibility of carrying out the procedure in the salon (no need for hospitalization);
2. short rehabilitation period;
3. speed of implementation - from 30 to 60 minutes;
4. 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:

1. the first day you cannot use decorative cosmetics;
2. do not touch your face for 12–20 hours;
3. do not smoke for at least several hours after the procedure;
4. for three days avoid baths, saunas and swimming pools, solariums and sunbathing;
5. 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.
