<ul class="summary-list"><li><a href="https://www.goodskinclinics.com/">GoodSkin</a> in Los Angeles and New York City offers PDO thread services to help lift and tighten skin. </li><li>Founder <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamlisagoodman/">Lisa Goodman</a> does a non-scalp fixation with results that can last two to three months.</li><li>Treatments at GoodSkin begin at $1,200, and prices vary depending on the thread count and technique.</li></ul>Following is a transcript of the <keyword id="21654" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="video">video</keyword>.Lisa Goodman: PDO thread is a type of dissolvable suture that's actually made even from a sugar, and it dissolves underneath your skin over time, and everywhere where a thread is placed does create a little bit of collagen and a little bit of fibrosis, so that over time, as you do more threads, the tissues can stay more lifted.So, here today, we're actually gonna be doing <keyword id="9060333" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="pdo-threads">PDO threads</keyword> on our lovely patient Charlene. So, Charlene's concern is -- and her genetics of aging -- is basically jowling and some amount of facial sagging here. So, the style of numbing that we do here is more of a tumescent numbing, where we're putting numbing under the skin, not topical numbing. That's a really big difference that you might want to ask your provider about. And so that will work immediately, it'll be more effective, and last around an hour. So, this was the actual painful part of the procedure. She's feeling a little bit of stinging, and so what we're doing is we're using our kinetic vibration tool so that she's comfortable, and then she also is using nitrous, which is laughing gas, so that she's not in pain.So, we offer two types of thread techniques, and one is called scalp fixation, and one is non-scalp fixation. The scalp fixation uses a hook and is a thicker thread that will go deeper for more deep attachment. That type will last anywhere from three to six months and longer, depending on how many threads we put and also depending on the quality of your fascia and your age. And then the non-scalp fixation will last anywhere from two to three months, depending on how many threads you use, quality of your scalp skin, and also your age. So, we're making the entry poke to place the thread first.So, there's different techniques for placing threads. This cannula is a non-threaded cannula. You see, there's nothing in there. That's important because if I want to reposition the cannula so that I have the best position of the thread, I can. If you have cannulas where the thread is already positioned, sometimes you can't reposition the thread. And we're now going to put the thread inside the cannula. We use Mint brand threads, which is an important part of having a good result, because the thread is a molded barbed thread. What that means is that they did not cut the barbs into the thread to make it hook. And so you have a thread that is less likely to break. In terms of the depths of the thread, we actually don't want the threads very deep. They're going to be in a specific layer of the tissue where they're hooking onto the fat, and that's how it allows it to pull up on the skin. If we're in that layer of tissue, that's also how we can avoid bunching and also visibly seeing the thread.So, someone who's a poor candidate for threads is someone whose skin is too loose, because what'll happen is the thread will go in, it'll look good for a few days, and then the skin will go back to where it was. So what you're seeing today is a really perfect entry-level-threads experience for someone who's in their 20s, I'd say, even to early 40s. Where this might not be a really good entry-level experience, of not using the hook, is if someone is much older and their tissue is much laxer. We would want to just start with using the scalp-fixation hook, so that they actually have a treatment result. So, our next step is we're going to tie the threads together so that they stay anchored. And they're going to basically -- it's going to give her a little bit more support and result.So, what PDO threads can't do is they can't give you a new face. They're not going to change your natural anatomy to something that's totally different than what you were born with. What they can do, however, is help prevent sagging and help restore your own natural anatomy to where it used to be. So if you were to do threads and do them once and never do them again, your tissues will return to where they were at previously and it won't be visible to your eye because it's only one treatment, but you still will have benefit from that one treatment, because you will form collagen and fibrosis around each thread that was placed.

Mikala Jones-Fielder: My name is Mikala, and today I'll be doing an acne mesh treatment. Growing up, I always had issues with my skin, since 10 years old. And people always said, "As you get older, it'll go away, it'll get better." They lied. I still have hyperpigmentation, I still break out, and then I get scarring and these freaking imprints in my skin. And I really want them gone. I need them gone. I need them out. I found Sadiyah, a registered nurse who uses all types of threads full time in her practice. Mikala: Am I gonna feel like... like, am I gonna feel it through my skin? Am I gonna see it? Sadiyah Karimi: You should not be able to feel it or see it. Like I said, I totally numb you. We use really nice, strong topical lidocaine cream, so it should be very comfortable. Mikala: Is it safe? Sadiyah: It's definitely safe. Mikala: What's, like, worst-case scenario, though? Like, one in a million, like, is there anything that can go wrong? Sadiyah: If you're not too careful with the lift, like, in certain areas, and you overstretch the muscle, it can get dislodged. [slo-mo] It can get dislodged. But we could always fix that, but, of course, we do very thorough post-care explanation to prevent that. Mikala: Awesome. OK, I'm ready. Let's do it! I'm ready to get snatched. Sadiyah: Let's do it. You're gonna get so snatched. I completely cleanse you, I go ahead and add some topical numbing, let that settle in for 20 minutes. As I wipe it off with alcohol, then I go ahead and draw my lines exactly where I want to place the <keyword id="9060333" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="pdo-threads">PDO threads</keyword>, where you have the most crate-like deep acne or just impurities that you wanna perfect. And then I place the threads exactly in those areas. Mikala: She cracked open the first thing of needles, and I was absolutely terrified. Just my anxiety level was going up and up and up. And then she finally put it in, and I was just like: "This doesn't hurt at all. Wow." Polydioxanone threads, aka medical threads, work by relaxing the muscles in the face. Sadiyah: You doing OK? Mikala: Mm-hmm. When the threads are inserted into the skin, your body begins a natural healing process that, in four to six weeks, claims to minimize pores, remove scarring, and give the skin an overall more even, plump look. For $350, it seems too good to be true. Sadiyah: We are targeting the deep, textured scarring, scarring that we want to improve. Mikala: So, after, you know, my four to six weeks, I'm popping. I'm snatched to the fullest. How long does it last? Sadiyah: So, the threads will dissolve in four to six weeks, like you said, and the lifting effects last 1.5 to two years. Mikala: Ooh. Sadiyah: So it's just nice extra collagen that benefits you. You know, you could do multiple session, especially for acne scars, just depending on the extent of it. Mikala: It's, like, 20 seconds for two years. Yes, yes, yes. Sadiyah: There you go. Mikala: I love it. OK, that was the most quick and easy, painless thing I've done. So, I was doing some research. I'm curious, like, what is the difference between <keyword id="30998" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Botox">Botox</keyword> and fillers and this? Sadiyah: Right. So, Botox, fillers, and PDO threads, they all work differently. Botox will work on the muscle to stop the muscle from forming any lines and wrinkles, fillers will add volume, and PDO thread lifts will lift. It's quick, easy, efficient, effective; you look amazing. Mikala: So, apparently, I'm gonna have amazing, beautiful skin, perfect skin in four to six weeks. So we'll see if that holds true. So, the next day after treatment, my skin felt like... you know when you're laughing, and you laugh all day, and then the next day your cheeks are just sore? That's what it felt like. So it wasn't painful; I actually really liked, it felt like my face had a bra on it. Like, it just felt so sculpted and lifted and protected. By week four, I was like, "This s--- don't work." This s--- don't work. But by week six, which is when Sadiyah said that I would see the best results, I saw the best result. My mom even noticed. I didn't tell her I got, you know, anything done, and she looked me, and she was like: Chanel: I've never seen it look this good, let me see... girl. Can I get some of that? [laughing] Mikala: The acne mesh treatment worked for me. I definitely noticed a difference, and I feel like it took away most of the textured scar. It's now lifted with the rest of my skin and looks more even and smooth. So I'm so excited that this actually worked. Sadiyah: Beautiful. Chanel: Yes. Mikala: But tell them, like, how I would come home and how much it, like, affected me as a kid. Chanel: Yeah, I mean, you were like, "I wish I'd had different parents or better skin, or." Mikala: Oh, I said that? [laughing] Read the original article on <a href="https://www.insider.com/how-medical-threads-help-heal-acne-scars-beauty-explorers-2020-3">Insider</a>

Here's how these medical threads can help heal cystic acne scars

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Some patients going in for "fox eye" cosmetic procedures say they are being left with pain, scarring, and asymmetrical results.</li><li>"Fox eye" thread lift procedures use barbed sutures to pull the skin towards the corner of the eye.</li></ul><keyword id="11931740" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="plastic-surgery" source="Orion">Plastic surgery</keyword> patients are going under the knife to achieve Bella Hadid's pulled back, <a href="https://www.insider.com/cat-eye-thread-lift-what-is-it-2021-4">feline-shaped "fox eyes"</a> — and some are being left with temporarily lopsided faces.TikTok user Jessie Carr said a "fox eye" thread lift procedure gave her <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/03/03/i-got-fox-eye-surgery-but-its-my-biggest-regret-ever/">uneven eyebrows</a>, left her swollen for weeks, and popped a blood vessel during the procedure. Another TikTok user, Chloe Dayan, shared her story of being left with indented temples and no results after getting a dissolvable polydioxanone (PDO) thread lift."It was the most painful thing I've done in my entire life, and I've done a thing or two," Dayan said on TikTok. "I had a stupid thread showing in my face for months." Plastic surgeons told <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-10580907/Why-young-women-risking-permanent-damage-fox-eye-facelifts.html">the Daily Mail</a> some patients going in for "fox eye" cosmetic procedures are being left with pain, scarring, and asymmetrical results.The "fox eye" thread lift, also called the "cat-eye" lift, have increased in popularity over the years due to the rise of celebrities like Hadid, who have such feline features, surgeons told the Mail. But the thread lift has risks if performed by a non-board-certified <keyword id="12427596" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="plastic-surgeon" source="Orion">plastic surgeon</keyword>."The care you get is often dictated by the door you walk into," said <a href="https://www.alanmatarassomd.com/">Dr. Alan Matarasso</a>, a Manhattan-based plastic surgeon and the former president of American Society of Plastic Surgeons. "You need to go to a board certified plastic surgeon who can offer the entire array of choices."<h2>How does a "fox eye" lift work?</h2>Matarasso said the "fox eye" procedure is not a <a href="https://www.insider.com/marc-jacobs-revealed-his-face-lift-on-instagram-2021-7">face lift</a>, which involves cutting into the side of the face, the jowl, and the neck and pulling excess skin towards the hairline.The "fox eye" procedure is non-surgical, and involves using a barbed, dissoluble suture thread to pull the skin up and out. After a plastic surgeon inserts the thread, the barbs catch onto the underside of the skin. The doctor will then pull the threads towards the corner of the eye, and the barbs will keep the skin in place.The "fox eye" procedure is more similar in technique to an eyelid operation than a face lift, Matarasso said.Eyelid <keyword id="11949089" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="surgery" source="Orion">surgery</keyword>, or <a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/blepharoplasty/about/pac-20385174#:~:text=Blepharoplasty%20(BLEF%2Duh%2Droe,the%20muscles%20supporting%20them%20weaken.">blepharoplasty</a>, is a semi-permanent option in which a surgeon cuts into the skin and removes excess fat in the upper and lower lids to decrease the appearance of sagging and puffiness. Matarasso said patients getting blepharoplasty do not wish to change the shape of their eyes, but rather remove the appearance of aging.The "fox eye" thread lift, on the other hand, does involve changing the shape of a patient's eye and brow for about six months before the threads dissolve, Matarasso said.Maintaining the results of a "fox eye" thread lift can be costly: the average cost for thread lifts in the US is $2,050, according to <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/cosmetic-surgery/thread-lift#cost">Healthline</a>.<h2>What do prospective patients need to know before getting a "fox eye" thread lift?</h2>Matarasso said a downside to the thread lift is asymmetry between the two sides, sometimes due to barbs not catching to the skin and pulling it. The barbs are meant to catch to the underside of the skin internally, and the technique to doing so is "surgeon dependent," Matarasso added. <a href="https://www.drgrover.com/">Dr. Sanjay Grover</a>, a board-certified plastic surgeon based in Newport Beach, California, said there is a "rare" risk a thread lift could damage the temporal branch of the facial nerve, which helps with raising the forehead and closing the eye.Grover added that, depending on where the sutures are placed and their thickness, some thread could be visible on a patient's face until it dissolves, or patients might feel them on their face. Matarasso said visible threads can sometimes be manipulated into a better position by a surgeon after the fact."My perspective may be skewed because the people I see are the failures," Grover said. "I'll see people who may have had it done elsewhere and then want to do something more permanent with surgery, but not as extreme."But because sutures dissolve and the procedure is non-surgical, Matarasso said the appearance will fade for patients who did not like the results of the "fox eye" lift.Even though "fox eye" procedures aren't surgical and can be performed in medical spas, Grover recommends patients see a board-certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon who is familiar with brow lift procedures and can provide the best assessment on which one would provide the natural-looking results.
