What Happens During a PLLA Lifting Thread Procedure?

The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes in a comfortable and safe clinical environment.

After applying a local anesthetic for your comfort, our skilled practitioners will insert the PLLA threads into specific areas of your face using a cannula or needle.

This minimally invasive technique allows for precise placement, ensuring optimal results.

Will the Procedure Hurt?

Patients may experience some discomfort during the insertion of PLLA threads; however, the local anesthetic applied prior to the procedure significantly mitigates any pain.

Most clients describe the sensation as mild and manageable, ensuring a pleasant experience throughout the treatment.

Risks & Side Effects of PLLA Lifting Threads

While PLLA Lifting Threads are generally safe, potential risks and side effects may include:

• Bruising and Swelling: Some patients may experience minor bruising or swelling at the injection sites, which usually resolves within a few days.
• Infection: As with any procedure that penetrates the skin, there is a slight risk of infection. Following post-treatment care instructions will help minimize this risk.
• Discomfort: Temporary tenderness or discomfort may occur in the treated areas, but this typically subsides quickly.

How Long Do Results Last?

The results of PLLA Lifting Threads gradually improve over several weeks as collagen is stimulated in the treated areas.

Most clients will notice enhanced volume and lift that can last from 12 to 24 months, depending on individual factors such as skin type and lifestyle.

For optimal maintenance, follow-up treatments can be scheduled as needed.

Aftercare Instructions for PLLA Lifting Threads

• Drink plenty of water and maintain hydration to support the healing process.
• Apply a cold compress to reduce any potential swelling or discomfort in the first few days post-treatment.
