Objectives: To recognize the common aesthetic concerns among Asian patients
To present non-surgical treatment options to address specific indications
To demonstrate how thread lifting can be performed in order to achieve aesthetic goals in Asian patients

Introduction: The Asian face has distinct characteristics and morphology that require customized treatment strategies in order to achieve a particular aesthetic goal. While beauty standards may vary in various regions/ethnicities in Asia, it is very common that the desire is to beautify, improve facial shape and create a youthful appearance while maintaining a natural outcome. Thread lift has become a very popular treatment in Asia. This lecture will focus on my treatment strategies using threads on Asian patients with various aesthetic concerns.

Materials / method: Thread methods on Asian patients will be presented. Videos of the techniques as well as before and after photos will be shown.

Results: The most common treatment indication of thread lifting for Asian patients include lifting of the nasolabial folds and jowls, nose augmentation, lifting of the eyebrows/eyelids and tightening and lifting the neck. Absorbable thread material containing PCL/PLLA provides effective, natural and long-lasting outcomes. Consider the Asian morphology (face shape) and thickness of the subcutaneous fat compartments when designing a treatment strategy. Combination with other non-surgical treatments will further improve outcome.

Conclusion: Thread lifting is an important aesthetic tool in treating Asian patients. the treatment strategies must be designed to address specific concerns, taking into consideration the the Asian facial morphology.

Objectives: “ Basket- lifting “ with reversible thread traces - lifting with the effect of mechanical stimulation. Physiology, mobility, efficiency.

Introduction: “Basket-lifting “ with reversible thread traces is a lifting that preserves the motor activity of tissues without reducing the fixing ability of the threads in the process after thread implantation.

Materials / method: This method allows reducing ptosis tissues due to fibrosis around the thread and stimulation, the mechanical action of the thread structure - mechanotransduction.

Results: We will show the therapeutic effect of mesothreads with consideration of the biomechanical properties of the created structure.

Conclusion: Such thread lifting enhances the immediate result, gives a beautiful and natural long-term impact, and makes the procedure more physiological.
