Facelift: I am experiencing some skin laxity after the reduction.

Question

HI doctors. I am in my mid 30's and a few years ago i under went a slight cheekbone and jaw reduction. I am experiencing some skin laxity after the reduction. I was wondering if non invasive threadlifts (facelift) will absorb inside the face over time? or do the threads stay inside the face?

Amir Nasir, MD · Answer

In the past surgeons used to use non absorbable thread for facial enhancement. In my experience and in my practice, we only use absorbable threads, and have been getting very good results with them with very minimal complications.So I think the answer depends on your surgeon but we have had very good luck with absorbable threads. I hope this helps!
