Face Thread Lift for Men
Engaging in cosmetic procedures is no longer limited to just women; men can also make some changes if needed. One of these cosmetic procedures is the face thread lift. Join us in learning about the techniques of face thread lift for men, as well as the candidates for this procedure, in this article.
Face thread lift for Men:
A face thread lift for men is performed when mild to moderate wrinkles appear by placing some threads or temporary stitches under the skin. These threads lift and tighten the skin instead of removing excess skin through surgical intervention. This technique primarily relies on pulling the skin backward and lifting the features, making you look younger and more youthful. Additionally, these threads stimulate the production of collagen in significant amounts, which plays a crucial role in combating signs of aging. These threads are not limited to just face lifting; you can also lift the eyelids, and neck, and get rid of a double chin using these threads without going for surgical intervention.
Who are the candidates for a face thread lift?
You might be a candidate for a facelift if you meet some of these conditions, which include:
- Your age ranges between thirty and fifty, with a preference not to exceed sixty.
- If you have mild to moderate sagging and wrinkles and wish to get rid of them without undergoing surgical face lifting,
- In case you have sufficient skin elasticity, this ensures the best possible results from this cosmetic procedure.
How is a face thread lift for men done?
Depending on the type of threads used, several small surgical incisions are made near the hairline to insert the threads or the threads are injected directly under the skin, as deemed suitable by the doctor. Face threading is usually performed without general anesthesia or with the use of local anesthesia, allowing you to be awake during the thread insertion, and you can communicate with the doctor and observe the immediate changes in your face as the thread lift begins. After the threads are inserted and connected to the skin tissue, they are pulled backward to the desired degree for face tightening and getting rid of wrinkles and sagging. Once the threads are tightened, they are secured with cosmetic stitches hidden in the skin, leaving no scar marks. The procedure duration for a face thread lift for men ranges from one to two hours, and you can return home immediately after this cosmetic procedure.
Recovery period after face thread lift:
- The recovery period does not exceed a week, and you can apply cold compresses to the face during the next two days after the procedure to reduce swelling or redness.
- It's important to avoid physical activity for several weeks to prevent negatively effect on the results of the face thread lift and to avoid swelling or bleeding.
- During recovery, you might feel discomfort or some minor pains, which the doctor can manage by painkillers.
Results of face thread lift for men:
You will notice initial results immediately after the thread lifts, with wrinkles appearing less prominent and your skin looking more youthful. The final results vary depending on each case; the better your skin elasticity, the better the results. The results continue to improve for several months due to the production of collagen, which helps the skin regain its elasticity. The results last for several years, and the duration of their appearance and continuation varies depending on the type of threads used in the face thread lift and the skin's elasticity. You can also undergo another face thread lift after a long period when new wrinkles appear.
