Do they use threads in face lifts?

andreeamax
Hey guys so I've been given this odd answer from an estetician; as I did not knew exactly if facelift means that you will have threads inside your skin, I asked what type of threads does he offer in Temporal Face lift ? He said pdo threads. Now I researched the internet and I found out that threads are other type of procedure besides face lifting so what exactly it is going on ? Is he a professional scammer or are threads used in face lifting ? please answer on topic only !
