Face Rejuvenation with Gold Threads

Gold threads implantation (grafting) technique.
Gold threads represent an excellent method for retarding the effects of skin aging for women between 30-40 years old, in case the facial skin is not yet loose and flabby. The threads help to prevent skin stretching and fine wrinkles formation.

The threads are invisible and imperceptible. They are made of pure 24 carat gold, less than 0.1 mm in diameter and ended with thin needle, which enables insertion under the skin without damage to it. The special triangular needle shape provides easy penetration through skin with minimum effort applied.

The gold thread is employed in conjunction with a resolving polyglycol thread that is used to sustain the tension during the implantation process as well as improve postoperative durability. The set is available in sterile packaging. Like any other medical technique, gold threads have both indications and contraindications. In cases of prominent lowering of the soft facial tissues and the facial oval shape is poorly defined, the threads will not create the desired effect.

We also recommend the use of gold threads after surgical face-lift in order to secure the postoperative results. The gold ions encourage the formation of new blood vessels causing a better supply of blood. Gold also helps supply the skin with oxygen, removes tiredness, and rebuilds cells. Around every implanted thread, a framework of new cells is generated. The supply of blood in the strengthened area improves, and thanks to it skin becomes firmer and smoother. In fact, the results of this procedure last for up to 5-10 years and support the skin's natural resources.

The procedure is performed under general of combined anesthesia
Operation time is up to one hour.

Prior to the skin is first marked with marker lines the length of which is greater than the rejuvenation area. The gold thread input and output sites are placed in site of intersection of the marker lines form invisible web of gold threads under the skin. The gold thread is employed in conjunction with a resolving polyglycol thread.

Polyglycol thread resolves within 60 postoperative days without a trace. 
Around that time elastic collagen tissue is formed around each gold thread, arising a framework of new cells. Supply of blood in the strengthened area improves, thanks to it skin becomes firmer and smoother. The flow of nourishing substances levels aging processes. Gold does not cause allergic reaction, does not oxidize and does not cause rejection. After the operation small swelling may sustain for up to 2 days, and for up to 7 days the area where threads were implanted may be in bruise. Patients are given facial skin-care instructions and can leave the clinic after 24 hours postoperatively.

Postoperative skin care has no any specific regimen and limitations. Smiling and forehead frowning does not affect the threads and they do not become visible. Gold threads rejuvenation can be used as a separate procedure or combined with other cosmetology or surgical techniques like blepharoplasty or lips augmentation.
