Smooth Threads
At Cheung Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer Smooth Threads, an innovative and minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin by stimulating natural collagen production. This treatment is ideal for those looking to restore youthful firmness and smoothness without the need for surgery or extensive downtime.
Opening paragraph
What Are Smooth Threads?
Smooth Threads are thin, dissolvable sutures made from polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible material that has been safely used in medical procedures for decades. Unlike traditional thread lifts, Smooth Threads are placed just under the skin in a mesh-like pattern to stimulate collagen production rather than lift the skin. As the threads dissolve over time, they leave behind a network of new collagen fibers, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
How Does It Work?
The Smooth Threads procedure is quick and straightforward. We carefully insert the threads into targeted areas of your skin using a fine needle. The threads act as a scaffold for collagen, encouraging your body to produce this essential protein over several months. The result is a natural-looking improvement in skin texture, elasticity, and overall appearance.
Benefits of Smooth Threads
- Non-Surgical
Smooth Threads offer a non-surgical alternative to facelifts, with no incisions or scars.
- Minimal Downtime
Most patients experience only mild swelling or bruising, which resolves within a few days.
- Natural Results
As the threads dissolve, they leave behind natural collagen that enhances your skin’s firmness and smoothness.
- Versatile Application
Smooth Threads can be used on various areas of the face and body, including the cheeks, jawline, neck, and décolletage.
What To Expect
The Smooth Threads procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. After the treatment, you can expect some immediate improvement, with full results developing gradually as collagen production increases. The effects can last up to 12-18 months, depending on your skin type and lifestyle.
Smooth Threads are suitable for individuals looking to enhance their skin’s firmness and texture without undergoing surgery. It’s an excellent option for those who are beginning to notice signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, or for anyone wanting to improve the overall quality of their skin.
