RESORBABLE THREAD LIFT

aesthetic medicine




WHAT ARE RESORBABLE THREADS?
THE PROCEDURE
RECOVERY TIME

The resorbable thread lift is one of the most advanced treatments offered at Dr. Raffaele Castaldo’s clinic to combat signs of aging such as skin laxity and wrinkles, without the need for surgery. This minimally invasive technique provides a natural and long-lasting lifting effect, ideal for those seeking immediate results with minimal downtime.
During the specialist consultation, Dr. Castaldo evaluates the areas to be treated and develops a customized treatment plan. The procedure takes 20 to 60 minutes and is performed in the clinic under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. Once inserted, the threads create an immediate lifting effect and continue to improve skin appearance over time by stimulating natural collagen production.
Mild swelling or bruising may occur after treatment but usually resolves within a few days. It is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure and intense physical activity for one week. Patients should refrain from washing the face for the first 12 hours, and cold compresses can be applied to reduce discomfort if needed.
