Have you been thinking about getting threads, PDO threads?
Thread lifts.
Maybe it heard about it from the cat I lived, but you heard a lot of fun, a
lot of fear, uncertainty and deception.
A lot of people talking negative about them.
What's their motive.
Is it true?
Are they bad?
Do they create scar tissue?
Can you not get a facelift after you've had a thread lift?
Uh, there's a lot of ridiculous stuff out there and people just aren't in tune.
They're not in touch and you can't wish things away on Bhutan.
I'm going to give you six reasons why PDO threads and threads are here to stay.
Why there are misconceptions and what are those people trying to
tell you on get right to that point?
What they're trying to say.
Candidates with unrealistic expectations that have too much sag that need a
facelift should just get a facelift.
And that's true.
PDL threads are not a facelift, but a lot of people that talk negatively about
them have never placed one in a face.
They don't know really what they are, what they do.
In fact, they're antiquated to the point where they're thinking about permanent
thread lifts, polypropylene, permanent threads that were from yesterday.
These are people probably wouldn't know what a digital currency is.
If you told them they still use banks and, and, and antiquated systems of
the economy, this is a whole new age.
And as old as I am, I realized I have to be with it to give you
the information it's up to date.
That's why I travel the world.
It's why I go see what they're doing in different countries.
But the one key feature is when people talk about threads, look at
the comments underneath their videos.
A lot of people say, Hey, I actually had him.
I liked him.
Hey, they were good value.
They lasted, they gave me a window into maybe what a facelift was.
That's what threads aren't going to tell you what they do and why they're
going to stay just for those who don't.
There are different materials, PDO, poly docs, own PCL, Polycarp
capralactone and PLLA similar to what's in Sculptra poly L lactic acid.
They all dissolve so to speak and they go away over time.
PDO then PCL, then P L L.
In in about that continuum of longevity, the PDO are the shortest ones.
I'll tell you actually why?
Uh, even though they last the shortest amount of time, a lot of people end
up going for those types of threads.
They just kind of hit the sweet spot, but they're put underneath the skin.
To rejuvenate to build college.
And there are smooth and twist reds that build collagen.
And then they're the lifted ones.
And I think those are the ones that threaten people the most because
people are afraid that maybe they're going to lose business from it.
Or maybe the people are going to get thread lifts thinking
they're a facelift Le these products are a tool in a practice.
Most people walk into a practice, let's say 40, 56 years of age.
And they've had 30, 40, 56 years of aging.
You can hit that with one thing.
You can have one tool in your toolbox.
You don't go to a home, build a home with a hammer or even an
air gun, or, uh, a single saw.
You have all kinds of different tools, the same with a face.
Think of PDO threads as a tool in the toolbox of your practitioner to Fort
the many dozens of years of aging of.
Of that, of muscle of hyper muscle movement.
So think of it as a tool and yes, people are correct when they say
a lot of people end up being sold.
Uh, a thread lift when they really aren't satisfactory patients or
appropriate patients to get that result from, and many people who do need a
facelift and get the long-term result they want are looking for a quick fix.
That's an inappropriate use and it's inappropriate for
someone to do that procedure on.
With that expectation in mind, that's my feeling on it.
However they work and that's number one that you need to know is they
stay and they're here forever.
And they've been in other countries.
I started doing them 10 years ago, um, because they work and you see from the
comments, people who like any other product, if you're going to get your Botox
or filler, if you're going to get your.
If you're going to get fat transfer, if you're going to get a facelift, the
console is the most important part of it.
And appropriate candidates with appropriate expectations are going to
love PDO threads because they work.
If things don't work, they go away.
Think of high you're on pin.
Gone did a video on that.
Did two of them said it was terrible.
It's gone plasma pen.
Okay.
So your bird holes in the skin expecting a blepharoplasty, a facelift that's.
Gone, you can buy both of those things for $40 on Amazon.
I'd advise you not to.
So that's number one, they actually do work bill a college and give skin glow
and they do lift in the appropriate patient in combination procedures.
Number two is they're time tested.
This isn't something that's been.
Yes.
Uh, five, six years ago, a group of us in this country got together.
And from there on, they took hold and many more people do them there.
I would say probably the number one fastest growing procedure
is threads, thread lifting.
I don't like the word thread lifting, but those, those threads type
of procedures are the number one growing procedure in the past four
or five years in the United States.
But they've been in other countries for a long time and they're countries
that are way ahead of us in terms of techniques and materials.
I see it all the time overseas in central America.
And that led me to my number three.
It's country tested.
It's not like it's being marketed.
It's being put in social media and, uh, Americans are doing this
Canadians north America, Mexico.
No, all around the world.
This was going on forever.
Even in countries where social media isn't revered, like it is in the United States.
It's by it's it grew by word of mouth by people desiring the procedures
by people getting great results.
So it's also not only time-tested, but country towns.
Number four and an argument against it is it's temporary.
Well guess what?
Botox and Botox like products are temporary.
Fillers are temporary.
Biostimulators are temporary.
Peels are temporary or micro-needling and microneedling without energies Denbury and
a stunner, but a facelift is temporary.
So yes, a rhinoplasty would be something.
What would be more on the permanent side?
Yes.
Blepharoplasty.
Temporary.
If you want to think about it, many people get too many people get three or four
rhinoplasties or no jobs people put before ligamentous release, especially in the
face would get three or four facelifts.
Now that's less common, but what isn't temporary.
So it's not an argument against threads that they're temporary.
It actually can be a benefit, but it's a lot longer lasting than
many procedures because type one and three colleges is produced.
And if you take care of your skin, your aging rate, you keep it low.
They can last and they can be great.
Number five skin is in, it just happens to be that people now Revere great
skin, that wasn't always the case.
People want it more fillers, more lips, more ducks, fish, trout, pelt.
They wanted the animal look, the cat eyes and the cat cheeks.
Uh, but skin good, beautiful skin is in and I'll do a complete video.
What.
Beautiful skin.
What is healthy looking skin?
What is glowing skin?
What are the components that make it?
But threads are one of those components, collagen, elastin, glow, just like
you get that with Sculptra PLLA and there are PLLA PLLA threads.
You get it with PDO and PCL in back in Korea, we used PCL poly
capralactone in a liquid form.
I have a complete video on this.
And I think I called it liquid PDO, maybe your liquid PDO, liquid PCL,
and go back and watch that video.
But it's injected as small particles, 50 microns or less of PDO, PCL.
And PLLA of course we have a sculptor.
Those are we consider, I call them biostimulators and
finally, number six is cost.
A lot of people would say, Hey, these threads are expensive.
Okay.
A facelift, the Hollywood facelift, what?
50 to $250,000 is that.
I don't know for me, it would be, I just happy to get a hockey stick for 150 bucks.
You know, that's what they cost.
I find that expensive, but a facelift is expensive.
So threads are they expensive for type one and three collagen that
you get that you own that stage?
For a lifting effect.
Let's say you get a lifting effect for six months to a year and a half.
It's the average price in this country would be one to $2,500.
Think about what your a hundred thousand dollar facelift costs over time.
So everything's expensive and we're at an inflation rate of.
I think 15%.
And I've said this on my MIT course to my students for the last two years,
getting ready for ablation we're at 15%.
So everything's going up plan on a set.
It's going up by 15%.
That's the way it is, but everything's expensive.
I don't believe for the price for what you get in the appropriate candidate.
That it's more expensive than any other procedure.
That's the point.
So I would submit that it isn't that expensive and compare it to surgical
procedures that are extremely expensive.
And I like surgical procedures.
I look forward to getting mine at one point.
It'll be great.
Um, so I'm not against any of it.
I think it all works together.
And it's all what each individual wants, but we know 99% of
people do not want surgery.
They may need it to get the look that's in their mind, but
they might also then compromise.
I'll save myself 50 or $75,000.
Maybe I'm not going to get quite a facelift result, but I'll get beautiful,
glowing skin, a little fine tuning.
Look the best that I can be without surgery.
It's personal choice, whatever floats your boat.
I have no vested interests, but I have a vested interest in giving
you the best information that I know that I learned in practice from my
own patients and my own practice to bring it to you, take it for what is.
Uh, completely playlists up here on PDO threads, thread lifts,
even the CATA I threw in there.
And one down here on things you can do at home.
Keep it skin and body beautiful, healthy, and vibrant.
