Hello~

​

💛your beauty universe! This is Uverse Plastic Surgery :)💛

When it comes to thread lifting, it can be broadly divided into two types: absorbable threads and non-absorbable threads.

For example, Mint threads are absorbable threads, and Elasticum is considered a non-absorbable thread.

​

Today, we have prepared a Q&A session about absorbable and non-absorbable threads.

Pros and Cons of Absorbable vs. Non-Absorbable Threads in Thread Lifting

There are various opinions on the pros and cons of absorbable and non-absorbable threads.

The commonly discussed advantages of non-absorbable threads are:

1) They have a strong pulling power.

2) They last longer compared to absorbable threads.

​

As for the disadvantages: 1) To pull strongly, an anchoring point is needed, which typically requires a scalpel incision in the temple area.

2) Because they are foreign substances, there is a higher risk of potential complications.

ex) Thread protrusion, temporary paralysis, inflammation, etc.

The disadvantage of non-absorbable threads, in my opinion, is that ‘they remain in the body forever, but their function does not last forever.’

I believe it is inevitable that the anchored tissues will stretch or tear (cheese wiring).

In patients undergoing a facelift after a previous thread lift, we often see non-functioning threads remaining meaninglessly in the tissues.

Thread lifting is a simple procedure with a low burden,

but it is best to undergo the procedure understanding that the effects are not permanent.

​

I consider absorbable threads to be an improvement that compensates for the disadvantages of non-absorbable threads,

which is why they account for the majority of threads used recently.
