I'm 45 and have tried botox and fillers but they're no longer working. Im not ready for an actual face lift.
Thank you for asking the question.The use of threads in lifting procedure is very controversial. The P.D.O threads which are self-dissolving and works about 6 to 7 months only produce a temporary procedure. However, a definite result is visible. The other option is to go in for COG threads which are more common to give a better lifting effect. Both this procedures are done in local anesthesia and are office-based procedure. So, till you are mentally ready for a face lift, you can opt-in for a thread lift procedure. I would suggest that you first consider P.D.O threads and if you are happy with the amount of lift it is able to create then you can continue with it or shift on to COG threads. Overtime, may be in few years you should mentally prepare for a face-lift Regards, Dr. Amit Gupta
