I have had 3 treatments of Sculptra, injected 4-6 weeks apart, in my face (4 vials in total) and neck (5 vials in total). The last 1-2 vials of Sculptra were injected 6 weeks ago. Is it safe to have 1216 long barbed PDO threads to treat the mid, lower face and neck areas after this time period? Have been advised that this could cause nodules as it may over stimulate the collagen and to wait 6-12 months. Is this a potential possibility as previous post answers have not indicated this as a risk.
Are thread lifts easier to do when the face is in its most natural state (e.g. fillers are dissolved & no effect of Botox)? Is there a difference in result if, for example, cheek filler is applied first and then has a thread lift procedure is completed in the same area rather than the other way around? Do you find patients have the best results when combining both procedures? Also - do lasers have a similar dissolving effect on threads as they do on filler? Thanks!
Hello Doctors, I'm curious to know if it's safe to undergo a SMAS face lift or even a thread lift when experiencing facial swelling. For example: Few days after face liposuction or jaw reduction is it possible to get an smas facelift?
Hi . Im going in to have my breast implants made smaller in 2 weeks. Im also planning on doing a facial PDO thread lift of my checks/jaw by a different provider. Im trying to make an appointment to do them but its only 10 days post my augmentation. Is it safe to the facial PDO lift them ? I dont want to do anything could increase my chance of CC as some doctors even caution against dental procedures before 6 months and recommend antibiotics even for those procedures. TIA
Which should I do first, PDO thread lift or thermage? How long should I wait between the two? Ive had one Thermage session on my lower face and neck, and I felt like it was effective. I have another one scheduled, but I just learned about PDO threads and would like to try that to address my double chin Which I was just told is not fat but actually sagging skin. I appreciate any advice! Thank you!
