Objectives: introduce the use of tension threads into your daily practice

Introduction: From the physician's perspective, you must:
• be familiar with them, even if you don't use them all
• have experience with both absorbable and permanent threads in order to offer patients as many options as possible
• have confidence in their effectiveness, which depends on the indication, the number of threads used, and the amount of tensioning, which should never be excessive
• be rigorous throughout the procedure, as it involves introducing a foreign body into the body.
From the patient's perspective, consultation is essential because there is still a lot of caution regarding threads, parti

Materials / method: NA

Results: From the patient's perspective, consultation is essential because there is still a lot of caution regarding threads, particularly regarding their effectiveness, which is often confused with the duration of the results.
We advise beginners to start with absorbable threads introduced with cannulas (which limit plane errors) on early mid-facial ptosis where they give the best results with the minimum of incidents.

Conclusion: Trust in tension threads and combine them with any other procedures

Objectives: I will be presenting advanced techniques that achieve tissue repositioning and volume enhancement solely with the use of suspension threads. These methods include creating strategic fat pockets for a beautifully contoured and natural-looking result, while simultaneously stimulating collagen production for long-lasting effects. The approach combines structural support and volumetric harmony to optimize lifting and achieve refined facial aesthetics.

Introduction: Suspension threads have evolved beyond their traditional lifting role, now offering tissue repositioning and volume enhancement without the need for fillers. This technique strategically creates fat compartments, enhancing natural contours while stimulating collagen production for long-lasting results. The method provides structural support and volumetric harmony, redefining facial aesthetics with a minimally invasive approach.

Materials / method: Materials & Methods:

Threads Used: Biocompatible, resorbable suspension threads with bidirectional and multidirectional barbs.
Tissue Repositioning Strategy:
Fat Pocket Creation: Controlled displacement of subcutaneous fat compartments for volume restoration.
Collagen Stimulation: Thread-induced neocollagenesis for progressive tissue tightening.
Injection-Free Approach: No need for additional fillers, relying solely on thread positioning for volume and structure.
Technique Execution: Precise vector placement in key anatomical zones, ensuring lifting, definition, and long-term support.

Results: Results:
Preliminary observations show immediate and progressive volume enhancement, with natural tissue adaptation and sustained lifting effects. Patients report high satisfaction, reduced downtime, and a balanced, rejuvenated appearance.

Conclusion: Conclusion:
This innovative approach leverages suspension threads to achieve both structural and volumetric correction, offering a new paradigm in non-surgical facial rejuvenation. The technique maximizes lifting, enhances contour definition, and prolongs results through collagen stimulation and strategic fat repositioning.
