Facial Rejuvenation with Threads: Clinical, Ultrasonographic and Histological Correlation

Abstract

During the last decade, minimally invasive facial rejuvenation with absorbable threads has become an important aspect of dermatologic practice, due to the increase in demand from patients who desire a more youthful appearance. It is a non-surgical procedure, safe, easy to perform, effective, with minimal recovery time and low risk of side effects, which allows improving skin texture, repositioning tissues and improving its flaccidity. We conducted a case report a of the clinical, histologic and ultrasonographic findings in a patient who underwent to this procedure and their concordance is demonstrated.
