LIFT YOUR FACE WITHOUT A FACELIFT

Standard facelift surgery is not for everybody. Realizing that, creative and forward-looking plastic surgeons have developed procedures known as Thread Lifts.

Instead of a scalpel, thread lifts use temporary sutures to produce a subtle and natural “lift” to facial skin and tissues. NovaThreads is the leader in the types of available thread lift materials and procedures that revitalize facial tissues without standard facelift surgery.

WHAT IS A NOVATHREADS LIFT AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

NovaThreads work particularly well in tightening skin on your neck, lower face and mid-face, and along your jawline. The procedure uses FDA-approved dissolvable sutures placed under your skin. These threads are made of synthetic biodegradable material. The threads are loaded into precision-calibrated hypodermic needles.

The skilled Rockford NovaThreads providers at PryorHealth then insert the fine-grade needles into your skin, parallel to the surface. As the needles are withdrawn, the stitches remain! The stitches provide an infrastructure that lifts and tightens your skin, reducing or eliminating treated facial and neck wrinkles. In some cases, specialized NovaThreads may be used to enhance the shape or volume of your lips.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND BENEFITS OF CHOOSING NOVATHREADS?

NovaThread Lifts are minimally invasive procedures and are considered very safe and virtually painless. General anesthesia is not required, eliminating any associated risks. There is almost no recovery time and the subcutaneous dissolvable sutures leave no scarring. Most people cannot feel their sutures at all once the surrounding skin has healed

NovaThreads can enhance the benefits of an earlier facelift and can be combined into a customized treatment plan that includes Botox and/or dermal fillers. Since NovaThreads can be repeated every six to eight months for more significant and lasting effects, patients are not “locked in” to permanent results. Plus, NovaThreads treatment is much more economical than facelift surgery.

COLLAGEN—THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING!

NovaThreads can provide an immediate lifting effect. But a vital extra benefit is that it also increases and promotes skin firmness over time.

As your sutures dissolve, your body’s natural healing process will send large amounts of collagen to your treated areas. Loss of collagen plays an enormous role in your skin’s aging process.

As you lose youthful collagen, your skin becomes thinner and more fragile. That, in turn, leads to sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of facial firmness and contour. Most of us suffer a loss of up to 80 percent loss of skin thickness by age 70. Stimulating the production of fresh collagen can thicken and hydrate your skin and reduce your rate of loss of skin smoothness and firmness.

ARE YOU A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR NOVATHREADS?

Patients over 55 may benefit more noticeably from facelift surgery than from NovaThreads. However, for older patients who for medical reasons cannot undergo surgery, NovaThreads can provide a safe and effective alternative.

SELECTING THE RIGHT NOVATHREADS LOCATION

To maximize patient safety and results, NovaThreads injections should only be administered by highly trained and experienced professionals who combine technical skill and precision with eyes for aesthetic symmetry and attractiveness.

The qualified NovaThreads aesthetic specialists at PryorHealth have the necessary experience and skill to ensure that your procedure will be done safely and give you the results you want, with no unwelcome surprises!

YOUR NOVATHREADS PROCEDURE

Your NovaThreads procedure is typically a quick one, taking only 30 to 45 minutes. First, your doctor will use local anesthesia to numb your treatment areas.

Then a small needle will be used to insert your NovaThreads sutures below your skin. Your doctor may select different shaped sutures for different treatment areas. Barbed sutures may best produce a “lifting” effect in desired places, while smoother sutures are excellent for skin smoothening and collagen stimulation. Your qualified Rockford NovaThreads aesthetic provider at PryorHealth will determine just the right combination of sutures and provide a detailed timeline for your procedure and recovery.

YOUR RECOVERY

Following their procedure, our Rockford NovaThreads patients may experience mild soreness, redness, and/or swelling. Strong pain medication is seldom needed. You won’t require anyone to help you with your daily routines or regular childcare, often making NovaThreads an ideal treatment option. It is important to avoid rubbing your face vigorously while cleansing or moisturizing it for at least a week following your injections. It’s also a good idea to prop your head up slightly when sleeping to avoid rolling over on your face.

RESULTS

NovaThreads will produce visible, though natural-looking, and often subtle results.

With that in mind, NovaThreads may be best suited to patients who are dealing with mild to moderate, as opposed to severe, skin laxity. NovaThreads remain in place for about four to six months before they dissolve.

Patients can, however, expect to maintain the results of their NovaThreads lift for up to 18 months. And don’t forget the ongoing benefits of the collagen rejuvenation produced by your NovaThreads procedure. Also, remember that NovaThreads can be repeated as often as every six to eight months to retain and maximize results.
