What Are the Potential Issues of Dissolvable Thread Lift?

youngrace
It seems to me that some of the problems with old Thread lifts could be resolved if the threads were reabsorbable. (Longevity issues still remain, but then it's the same problem with Botox. I guess a redo every 2-3 years isn't SO bad...) Is this procedure available in the U.S.? And do any of the doctors on this site perform it? On a related note, other than longevity issues, what are some of the problems with a dissolvable Thread lift that may potentially crop up? Thanks in advance!!
