Objectives: Synthesis of collagen in skin reduces with age. People are looking for maintaining their young look and preserving beauty longer. With aging there is uneven ptosis of tissues, skin laxity, thinning of subcutaneous fat layers, volume loss and tissue sagging. The popularity of minimally invasive non-surgical aesthetic procedures worldwide continues to grow. The patients are seeking for safe and effective treatments with minimal downtime. There is a new trend of non-surgical body rejuvenation. Here we present our “hybrid” combinative therapy for obtaining skin quality, skin thickness and lifting Introduction: The Hybrid lift non-surgical procedure is the combination of Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) /Poly-Caprolactone (PCL) anti-ptosis threads and injectable Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) filler for body contouring and rejuvenation of buttocks, abdomen, upper arms, thighs, knees, and hands. Materials / method: The combinative therapy in one session or separate sessions. That way we are able to obtain skin quality, volume and mechanical lifting in the same time. The simultaneous action of collagen stimulation gives better outcomes regarding skin quality and lifting. Results: Suitable for collagen stimulating products are different body areas – arms, legs, gluteal and abdominal area. In some cases the surgical therapy is not a standard first line treatment. With this combinative therapy we are able to obtain visual changes that reflect the skin quality and sagging. This offers a non-surgical opportunity with great aesthetic clinical outcome and patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Non-surgical rejuvenation of the body is continuing to increase. The main volumizing products that we use are resorbable fillers, such as collagen stimulators. For obtaining mechanical lifting and repositioning of the soft tissues our main products are resorbable threads. Thead lifting procedures have a long history of application, regarding early and moderate signs of ageing. With our combinative therapy we are able to achieve great results in one session and the results are long lasting.
