Contour
ThreadLift™
Who is a good candidate?
• You have moderate drooping of the soft tissues of the brow
and face.
• You have poorly defined upper and mid face contours.
• You do not want or for medical reasons, cannot undergo a
conventional full facelift or browlift procedure.
Description
of the Procedure
• The procedure is done on an outpatient basis and performed
under local anesthesia and light sedation.
• The physician makes a tiny incision or puncture in the hairline
area and the Contour Threads™ are inserted under the skin.
• The tiny barbs on each thread open in an umbrella-like fashion
to form a support structure that gently lifts sagging tissues of
the brow, face and neck.
• Once in position, your body generates new collagen bundles
that encapsulate each thread to help maintain the elevation or lifting
effect.
• This procedure is an ideal compliment to other facial rejuvenation
procedures such as Botox®, Restylane®, chemical peels, laser
procedures, upper and lower eyelid lift, liposuction of the neck
and chin augmentation.
Recovery time is from a few days to one week, depending upon the
specifics of the procedure |
