Does thread lifting have any side effects?

Thread lifting is a method of embedding threads and then implanting them into the dermis of the face to lift the face. This can achieve a great improvement in preventing facial skin sagging. Many people are afraid of side effects when they want to undergo thread lifting. For those who want plastic surgery, they must go to a regular hospital and choose an experienced doctor to perform this.

1. Choose a professional hospital

If you choose to go to a professional hospital for thread lifting and ask an experienced doctor to perform the operation, there will generally be no side effects. However, if the hospital you choose is an informal plastic surgery studio, it is very likely that some side effects will occur due to the doctor's irregular operation. The specific side effects are as follows:

2. Causes uneven skin surface

If a thicker serrated thread is used for thread lifting, the contraction force between the buried thread tunnel and the surrounding tissue will be uneven, which will cause slight unevenness and bumps on the skin surface. This phenomenon is normal. Generally, it will gradually improve after half a month of thread embedding and no special treatment is needed.

3. Rejection reaction occurs

Some people may experience rejection reaction after thread lifting. This is mostly related to the wire material selected for thread lifting or one's own physical condition. If the wire material used is not absorbable, it will lead to product rejection and severe facial redness and swelling reaction.

4. Local infection

Thread lifting may cause side effects such as local infection. Because the principle of thread lifting is mainly to insert the lifting needle into the face with a very thin cannula needle. If the material used is inappropriate, or it has not been strictly disinfected, and the operating room has not been sterilized, then it may cause the patient to experience infection symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, etc. after the operation.

5. Exposed threads

When performing a thread lift, if the hardness of the thread used is too high, the doctor's operation is not standardized, and the stress points of the skin are not considered, the thread will easily penetrate the skin, causing the risk of skin ulceration. If this phenomenon occurs, you should seek medical treatment immediately to avoid more serious side effects.
