Minimally Invasive Techniques for Facial Rejuvenation Utilizing Polydioxanone Threads.

Cosmetic procedures to combat the effects of aging are increasing in demand. Surgical interventions, such as rhytidectomy, have long been the standard method of providing a more youthful appearance. However, these procedures are costly, often require general anesthesia, and have potential risks such as scarring and prolonged recovery. A safe, effective, alternative to surgery is the nonsurgical thread-lift. Nevertheless, proper patient selection is critical for optimal outcomes and for patient and provider satisfaction. Over the past decade, these treatments have gained significant popularity for patients to achieve a more rejuvenated appearance with less complications and minimal downtime.
