Plastic Surgery In Venezuela
Plastic Surgery in Venezuela is a thread with small notches regularly staggered over its entire length which allows the skin to moor and thus is lifted.
This rejuvenation technique is intended above all for women who will never have a facelift for fear of surgery under general anesthesia and for women whose sagging skin is moderate and who are not yet candidates for a facelift, therefore rather women aged 40 around 50 years old.
This technique is not considered surgery and can therefore be performed without general anesthesia in the practitioner's office in Venezuela since it requires minimal breakage of the skin.
Before laying notched or tensor threads in Venezuela
The initial consultation in Venezuela is essential since it will allow the surgeon to examine your face and tell you if you are a good candidate for tensor threads. And also to determine which areas of the face to treat and the number of threads needed. The ideal patient has moderate facial ptosis and thick skin.
Possible contraindications will be sought such as an unstable psyche, taking aspirin in the days preceding the installation, an infection in the face such as a herpes labialis button for example, or possible general illnesses unbalanced such as unstable diabetes, for example.
Finally, you can ask all the questions you want to the surgeon in Venezuela. An information sheet, as well as informed consent and an estimate, will be given to you. The threads are never carried out during the first consultation but after a period of reflection that we estimate at a minimum of two weeks.
The placement of tensor threads represents the ideal alternative to a facelift for the patient who wishes to wait before a facelift or for those who know that they will never have a cervico-facial facelift.
During the laying of notched or tensor threads in Venezuela
The laying of the notched threads is done in the office under local anesthesia and lasts on average 30 to 45 minutes in Venezuela. Premedication may be helpful in very anxious patients. It is also recommended to shampoo with red betadine the day before and the morning of the installation.
Local anesthesia is applied at the entry and exit points of the threads. The passage under the skin is painless.
The result is visible as soon as the application is finished. Any small dimples may be present on the skin but they will disappear after only a few days.
After laying the notched or tensor threads in Venezuela
You will be prescribed treatment with anti-inflammatory tablets, painkillers, and antibiotic therapy for 5 days in Venezuela. It is advisable to avoid all alcohol as well as the taking of medicines containing aspirin for a week and to remain calm by avoiding any rubbing of the skin or any massage. No sun or sauna also during this period.
What is the cost of laying non-absorbable tensor threads in Venezuela?
The price of notched or non-absorbable tensor threads for a facelift without surgery varies according to the number of threads used between approximately 3000 and 4500 euros including tax in Venezuela.
Answers to your questions about lifting threads
Can we do a facelift without surgery thanks to tensor threads?
There are two main families of tensor threads, the so-called absorbable threads, and the so-called non-absorbable threads. Absorbable sutures, the best known of which are Aptos and Silhouette Soft sutures, have the particularity of being fully digested by the body after approximately one year.
They also stimulate the production of collagen in the skin in addition to their lifting effect. Their harmlessness is therefore total. Non -absorbable threads, the best known of which are Thread And Lift. They are made of polyester and silicone and are perfectly biocompatible. Their implantation in medicine has been known for 50 years. Their effectiveness acts over a longer term estimated at 2 to 3 years.
The mode of action is always the same, the skin is anchored by the different notches and it is, therefore, pulled upwards at the level of the face and neck, as a cervico-facial lift would do. The difference is that there is no dissection of the tissues and no resection of the excess skin. The principle, therefore, lies in the retraction capacity of the skin which is repositioned in the right place. Several threads are placed on the face and/or the neck, two to three on average per side.
It is possible thanks to the tensor threads to tighten:
Eyebrows
The cheekbones
Nasolabial folds
The jowls
The neck
What are the results of a facelift without surgery?
It can be appreciated after two weeks, the time necessary for the edema or any bruising (bruises) to disappear. Complementary treatments such as botox or hyaluronic acid can be combined because these treatments are not incompatible for overall facial rejuvenation.
In terms of effectiveness, its results are comparable to cervico-facial lifting if the indication is well established. Only the duration of effectiveness is of course not the same. These two techniques are therefore not concurrent but complementary in time.
