Abstract
- Objective: This review explores the utilization of thread lifting materials, distinct from traditional sutures, in aesthetic procedures. It aims to elucidate the varied composition, purpose, and performance of these slender materials.<br />Methods: The article contextualizes thread lifting materials by exploring their literal and material significance. The evolution of these materials is traced, emphasizing the preexistence of cog threads for tissue manipulation before their widespread adoption in plastic surgery.<br />Results: Observations regarding the efficacy and longevity of absorbable versus non-absorbable threads are discussed, with a particular emphasis on the efficiency of high-quality absorbable cog threads.<br />Conclusion: The proliferation of thread lifting materials extends beyond PDO, necessitating consideration of multiple factors beyond duration when selecting threads for lifting procedures. This underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation in choosing appropriate thread lifting materials.<br /> (© 2024 The Authors.
