Can face threads prevent other cosmetic procedures down the line?

I was one of the first to adopt threads when they originally came out in the early 1990s. I even appeared on network television performing a facial threadlift. At that time, the only threads available were permanent (non-dissolving) threads and the promise would be that the results would therefore be long-lasting to permanent. Threadlifting was and still is an invasive procedure that is relatively expensive and engenders a significant post-procedure period of downtime. Unfortunately, the promise of the permanent threads was not realized and the results did not seem to last much longer than those more quickly and cheaply obtained with fillers. So, I quickly ceased performing threadlifts and have never resumed--especially since newer and more robust HA fillers came on the scene that offered results lasting up to 1.5 years or more--the same durations as the permanent threads proved to be. Frankly, it is inconceivable that today's dissolving threads can promise to last longer than the aforementioned permanent threads. Besides, there has been an unacceptably high chance for adverse reactions with threads, such as infection, spitting out of the threads, skin dimpling and puckering, etc--often necessitating an additional procedure to remove them. And, finally, even if threads were ever to prove to give long-lasting results and didn't have the adverse reactions that they in fact do, the need for later cosmetic work would still not be avoided simply because shrinkage of the underlying fat pads, bone, muscle, etc. with the passage of time; gravitational effects; along with changes in the overlying skin from sun and chronologic aging will very likely make further cosmetic interventions necessary down the road. So, exercise a healthy dose of buyer beware when considering threadlifts. Hope this helps.

If the earth was flat we all fall off the edges.... NO Threading is a very temporary expensive treatment to slightly improve or restore a youth full appearance. On average threads lasts only 3-9 months. Aging continues and eventually surgery is needed.
