'Elastic band lifting',
redeem the
shortcomings of thread lifting
The spring has come. In these days,
increasing sunlight and stronger ultraviolet rays can lead to rapid aging of
the skin. During this process, decreased collagen and elastin on the skin
weakens the support for the facial muscles, causing sagging and wrinkles. Lifting
procedures that increase elasticity are helpful in these wrinkled and sagging
areas.
There are various methods of face lifting,
from laser to thread lifting, facial lifting, etc., and you should proceed with
the appropriate type according to the individual's skin condition.
If the skin sagging is not severe, it can
be improved using laser lifting such as Ulthera and Thermage. However, if wrinkles
and skin sagging have progressed considerably, you should choose intensive
treatment methods such as thread lifting and facial lifting. Thread lifting is
popular recently, and it is suitable when it is difficult to expect the effect
by laser lifting alone. In particular, the recovery period is relatively short,
and the effect of the thread lifting can be immediately seen after the
procedure. Also there is no need to make an incision on the face like facial
lifting. Since it is a less-pressure procedure for recovery, people with lack
of time are more likely prefer it.
Thread lifting is performed by making a
fine hole in the area where the skin sags or deep wrinkles, and then injecting
a safe medical thread and pulling it from inside the skin. The injected thread
melts and disappears over time, so there is no need to remove it. It is
important to know exactly about the type of thread used in the procedure, as
the duration and effect may differ depending on the thread used.
Most of the melting threads currently used
for lifting are made of polydioxanone (PDO). Melting thread lifting has the
advantage of being relatively easy, but it does not change the position of the
fixation ligament and pulls only the soft tissue on the surface of the face.
Since the thread melts in the body, it tends to sag again after some time.
Accordingly, in recent years, elastic band
lifting is popular because it has better elasticity than thread lifting and has
a similar effect to facial lifting surgery. Elastic band lifting is a new
concept lifting procedure with the concept of rebuilding aged elastic tissue by
using a special material band called 'Elasticum'. Because it uses a special
elastic band, it has natural movement and elasticity like a real ligament
compared to thread lifting. In addition, satisfaction is high in that the
maintenance period lasts semi-permanently.
Dr. Barn Jaesang from Banobagi Plastic
Surgery Clinic said, "The anti-aging procedure doesn't end with a one-time
treatment," and said "If the most aging parts of the face are solved
first, maintenance should be done with procedures such as laser or filler to
increase the effectiveness."
He also emphasized, “Having medical checkups once a year or two, and receive appropriate treatments regularly will maintain skin youth naturally.”
