Years ago, I was one of the first to adopt threadlifting and even performed it on television In those days, we used permanent threads and believed that the results would consequently be very long-lasting to make up for the procedure's expense and attendant downtime. Well, it wasn't long before we learned that the results were short-lived and, no longer being able to justify the expense and downtime involved, I stopped performing the threadlifts altogether. Soon after, threads were removed from the market. More recently, dissolving threads have reemerged. Unfortunately, again results are proving relatively short-lived (not surprising considering that permanent threads didn't last that long). So, moral of the story, be especially cautious when evaluating threadlifting and the claims for its purported benefits. Moreover, early studies were showing an uncomfortably large number of adverse reactions following treatment. Personally, I have been achieving quite gratifying results with the use of injectable bioremodeling agents, such as Profhilo, and skin boosters for the upper inner arms, upper inner thighs, and even crepey, crinkly necks. Best of luck to you.

PDO threads may last for 2-4 years depending on several factors. This procedure, also known as the thread brow lift, allows you to reposition sagging skin for a more replenished look with lifted eyebrows or an elongated eye.
Dear Chic 1995,From your photos your masseters do not look that big but an in clinic assessment would be important to assess the size. You have some shadows appearing in the nasolabial and marionette areas and I wonder if it’s this that’s creating a rounded look and bothering you?In my opi...
