Face Rope Hanger Applications

Facial rope suspension applications are one of the facial rejuvenation methods for aesthetic and beauty purposes. It is used to alleviate or eliminate signs of aging such as sagging, wrinkles and loosening on the face. In this method, thin threads are placed under the skin to lift and stretch the facial tissues upwards.

Facial thread lifts are a preferred procedure as a non-surgical option. It is less invasive and requires less recovery time compared to traditional facelift surgeries. The threads are made of specially designed materials and are stretched after being placed under the skin. This aims to achieve a younger and firmer appearance by reducing sagging and loosening of the face.

Facial rope slings are usually used in the following cases:

1. Mild to moderate sagging and loosening of the face.
2. Falling or sagging eyebrows.
3. Correction of sagging and lines on the cheeks.
4. Defining the jaw line.
5. Correction of neck sagging and wrinkles.

Facial thread lifts are usually performed under local anaesthesia and the procedure time may be short. Mild swelling, bruising or discomfort may occur with the placement of the threads. However, these effects are usually short-term and temporary.

The effect of facial thread lifts is based on the melting of the inserted threads and their adhesion by the skin’s own tissue. The effect of the threads may decrease over time and usually lasts between 1 and 2 years. The results may vary individually and may vary depending on the person’s age, skin type and the ageing process.

Facial thread suspension applications should be performed by a specialist plastic surgeon or dermatologist. A detailed evaluation is made before the procedure and the person’s expectations and health status are taken into consideration. As with any aesthetic procedure, there may be risks and side effects, so it is important to talk to your doctor in detail before the procedure.

After How Many Days Does Thread Lift Show Its Effect?

Some effects can be seen immediately after the application of facial rope slings, but full results occur over time. It may take a few days or weeks for the full effect of thread lifts to be seen. During the first few days, there may be mild swelling, bruising or tenderness in the procedure area.

The effect of thread lifts begins when the inserted threads pull up and stretch the tissues under the skin. This reduces sagging and loosening of the skin and provides a firmer appearance. The threads can also stimulate the skin’s own collagen production, which can provide a younger and fresher skin appearance in the long term.

However, full results may require several weeks or months. It may take time for the skin to heal in the areas where the threads are placed and for the threads to harmonise with the skin tissue. During this time, the skin completes the healing process and the results become more evident.
The healing process of each individual may be different and the results may vary from person to person. The effect of thread slings usually lasts 1 to 2 years, but this period may vary. For longer lasting effects, repeat procedures or other aesthetic treatments may be considered.

It is important to talk to your doctor in detail before resorting to thread lifts. Your doctor can give you more information about post-procedure expectations and the healing process and can create a treatment plan suitable for you.

How is facial thread suspension applied?

Facial thread suspension is usually performed by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist.

The procedure may include the following steps:

1. Initial Assessment: First, your doctor will evaluate your face and skin. An appropriate treatment plan will be determined by considering the condition of your skin, signs of aging and your wishes.
2. Anaesthesia: Thread lift application is usually performed under local anaesthesia. An anaesthetic cream or injection can be used to reduce sensitivity in the procedure area. Thus, you will be comfortable during the procedure.
3. Thread Sling Placement: Thin special threads are placed under the skin. The threads are carefully placed in the target areas under the skin and stretched to lift the skin. The threads are usually placed under the skin through small needles or cannulas.
4. Adjusting the Threads: Once the threads are in the correct position, your doctor can adjust the threads as needed. This is a stage to correct the sagging on your face and make the skin tighter. When the correct tension and position of the threads are provided, the desired result is achieved.
5. Post Procedure Care: Thread lift application is usually a short procedure and you can usually be discharged on the same day. It is important to rest for a while after the procedure and help recovery. Your doctor will give you post-procedure care instructions. These instructions may include keeping your face clean, avoiding certain movements, and using recommended medications.

There may be side effects such as mild swelling, bruising or tenderness after thread lift application. However, these effects are usually short-lived and improve over time. The threads dissolve under the skin over time and harmonise with the skin’s own tissue.

The healing process of each individual may be different. Your doctor will tell you how soon you can return to normal activities and when you can see the full results.
The important thing is that if you are considering having a facial thread lift, you should consult a specialist doctor and book a consultation appointment to be informed in detail.

Are There Any Scars After Facial Thread Lift?

Minimal scars usually remain after the facial thread lift procedure. Since thread lifts are performed with thin threads placed under the skin, no incisions or stitches are required. However, small holes or spots may occur after the procedure. These holes are usually very small and heal over time, usually disappearing without leaving a scar.
Since thread lifts are usually a minimally invasive procedure, the healing process is usually quick. It may take a few days to a few weeks for the holes to heal and the skin to return to its normal appearance. During this time, mild redness, swelling or bruising may occur at the procedure site. However, these effects are usually temporary and disappear over time.

The formation of scars may vary from person to person and depending on the skin structure. In some people, scars become almost invisible after the procedure, while in others, light scars may remain. The risk of scar formation may vary depending on how the procedure is performed, skin type, healing process and individual factors.

It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions before and after the procedure to best support the healing process. Your doctor can advise you on post-procedure skin care, wound healing and reducing scarring.

To summarise, minimal scars usually remain after the facial thread lift procedure. However, scar formation may vary from person to person and depending on how the procedure was performed. A good healing process and following your doctor’s recommendations can help minimise scarring.
