Plastic surgery development is no surgery facelift, called contour thread lift. No surgery facelift uses sutures to grab sagging skin and pulls it tight again.
Procedure is rather short and takes about a hour, is non-invasive, requires no general anesthesia and has short recovery time.
Non surgery facelift does requires tiny incisions along the hairline and then threaded needles with barbed sutures are inserted. Once needles are placed they have little cogs or suture-related hooks that grab the skin- then skin is slide into wanted position.
However, in the past similar procedure experienced negative feedback and some surgeons do still not have full trust in no surgery facelifts. Nevertheless, we will see what will be the results of no surgery facelift in a year of two. Some surgeons claim these procedures should last as surgical facelift, which is 10 years! Will patients remain their face tightness and firmness? Time will show.
Good side of no surgery facelift is they are not as expensive as surgery facelift: cost is between $4000 and $8000. Bets candidates are people with minimal signs of aging. People with major signs of aging will still likely require traditional plastic surgery. |
