How long does it take for thread carving to be effective?

In this age of appearance, more and more people pay more attention to their appearance, hoping to be as beautiful as flowers forever. With the development of technology, beauty projects are becoming more and more popular. Some women will do thread lifting to improve facial defects. Thread lifting can remove facial wrinkles, freckles, tighten the skin, and make the face more delicate and beautiful. So how long will it take for thread lifting to take effect?

1. What are the effects of thread carving?

Improve contours: the entire face, sagging apple muscles, loose lips, lifting the corners of the mouth, three-dimensional jawline, chest, buttocks, and upper arms.

Improve facial wrinkles and depressions: forehead wrinkles, frown lines, crow's feet, nasolabial folds, tear troughs, corners of the mouth, neck lines, back of the hands, etc.

Improve skin quality: tighten skin, reduce pores, and make skin more moisturized.

Reduces volume: double chin, upper arms, abdomen.

2. How long does it take to do thread carving?

The actual treatment time is approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour. Combined with preoperative anesthetic and postoperative ice pack, the entire treatment can be completed in about two hours.

3. Does thread lifting require anesthesia? Does it hurt?

Thread lifting surgery only requires simple surface anesthesia, that is, apply anesthetic cream like a mask on the face. After about 30 minutes, the face will feel numb, and at this time you will not feel much of the needle. If some patients are sensitive to pain, the doctor may consider using local anesthesia to improve comfort.

4. What are the side effects of thread carving?

PPDO thread can be normally absorbed and metabolized by the human body within about 180 to 240 days, so there is no problem of residue. After the thread is buried under the skin, you may temporarily feel something inside. When you make facial expressions or laugh, you may feel like something is pulling you. This is normal. Do not rub it or make exaggerated facial expressions for one to two weeks. This feeling will slowly disappear within two weeks.

Bruising is also a common condition for most people. It is because the needle may pierce the blood vessels and cause minor internal bleeding. Applying ice after the operation and after returning home can speed up the disappearance of bruises.

5. Is the wound caused by thread carving large? How long does the recovery period take?

The wound caused by thread lifting surgery is a bit similar to the size of a needle hole used for IV drips or blood draws in the hospital. These small needle holes will naturally heal and form scabs within one to two hours after the operation. The doctor will apply antibiotics on the wound to prevent infection. After one or two days, the scabs will fall off, and you can wash your face and put on makeup normally.

6. What should I pay attention to before and after thread carving?

1. Keep the skin and hair area clean before the operation. You cannot wear makeup on the day of surgery, and any traces of previous makeup should be removed as much as possible.

2. Communicate fully with your attending physician before the operation. If you are taking any medication, please inform your physician in advance.

3. The needle insertion site may become red or bruised, which can be improved by continuous ice compress.

4. Do not wash your face with hot water within three days (water that does not exceed body temperature is fine)

5. Do not make exaggerated expressions for several weeks and do not deliberately rub or press the area with your hands or other means.

6. Follow up with your doctor within one to two weeks after surgery. The doctor will help you discuss your overall feeling and observe the postoperative results.

7. Do not go to high temperature environments such as saunas within 1 month after the operation, and avoid exposure to the sun.

8. Do not smoke, drink, or eat spicy food within two weeks after the operation.

7. How long does it take for thread carving to be effective? How long can it last?

You can see the effect immediately after the treatment, especially when you have just finished half of the face. When you look in the mirror and compare it, you can see that one side of the face is obviously lifted. Therefore, the effect of thread carving is immediate, because the protein thread has firmly grasped the subcutaneous tissue in the lower layer of the skin and at the same time can stimulate the production of collagen under the skin. Therefore, even after the protein thread is absorbed by the human body in 180 to 240 days, the effect can still be maintained for 18-24 months.
