Treatment areas

Threads are a non-surgical alternative to a facelift. They improve the skin’s condition, lift sagging tissues and stimulate collagen and elastin.

How it works

The threads are placed under the skin after applying a local anaesthetic. They exert an initial mechanical lift, which forms approximately 10-15% of the lift. The remainder and majority of the tightening effect is created by the collagen stimulation effect of the threads themselves.

This collagen stimulation effectively improves over 3 to 12 months following the procedure. The results are subtle and continue to enhance your appearance gradually over a few months.

Types of threads

Threads used to treat the face and neck are made of various materials, with the major ones being PDO threads, PLLA threads and PCL threads. The major brands in Australia are Silhouette Soft®, MINT™ and Aptos.

Treatment process

First, we use local anaesthetic to numb the area. The threads are gently inserted into the subcutaneous tissue and put into the ideal position for maximum benefit.

After your procedure, the excess thread is trimmed. We apply topical antibiotic gel to the insertion point.

NB: Always choose a fully qualified and experienced professional for this procedure. Dr Sam Aravinth is a national threads trainer, so you can be assured you are in the best hands when treated at Samara Aesthetics.

Complications

The threads procedure is minimally invasive. The procedure is completed in the medical office under local anaesthetic. Swelling of the treated area is the most common side effect and can last up to 72 hours post-procedure.

NB: There are no cuts or incisions. The threads are passed under the skin via a small needle. Most people can return to work the same afternoon or within 1-2 days.

Results and treatment longevity

Patients often see a noticeable difference immediately after the procedure. However, the best results can usually be seen 3-4 weeks after the procedure.

The threads themselves last in the tissue for approximately 12-15 months, and the combined effect of mechanical lift and collagen stimulation lasts for up to 3 years.

FAQS

People often see a noticeable difference immediately after the procedure. However, you’ll see the best results 3 to 4 weeks after the procedure.

The threads themselves last and adhesive approximately 12 to 15 months, and the mechanical lift and collagen stimulation’s combined effect lasts up to 3 years.

Your threads are placed under the skin (after the area has been numbed by local anaesthetic). The threads give an initial mechanical lift, which forms approximately 10 to 15% of the lift. The remainder — and the majority of the tightening effect — is created by the collagen stimulation effect of the threads themselves.

The collagen stimulation effect improves over a 3 to 12 12-month period following the procedure. Consequently, results are subtle and continue to enhance your appearance gradually over a few months.

The common areas where wrinkle relaxers are most effective are:

  • frown lines – number 11’s
  • forehead lines – horizontal lines on the forehead
  • crow’s feet – lines around the eyes

However, wrinkle relaxers can also be used to treat:

  • lip flip – the lines around the lip
  • gummy smile – showing too much of the gum line when smiling
  • jawline slimming
