Combination of Thread Lifts with PRP
The combination treatment begins with the insertion of absorbable threads into the targeted areas, such as the face, neck, or body (arms, thighs, abdomen), using a fine needle or cannula to lift and tighten the skin. The threads stimulate collagen production, providing a gradual improvement in skin quality over time. Following the thread lift, PRP, which is derived from the patient’s own blood, is prepared and injected into the treated areas to further enhance collagen production, improve skin texture, and promote healing. The procedure generally takes 1–2 hours, depending on the treatment area and complexity. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur, but these usually resolve within a few days. The results can be seen immediately with further improvements occurring over the following weeks as collagen builds. Results typically last 12–24 months and can be maintained with periodic touch-ups.
