What Are Smooth Threads?

Smooth Threads are ultra-fine, dissolvable PDO threads that are strategically inserted under the skin to stimulate collagen production and provide subtle lifting. Unlike traditional thread lifts, which focus on lifting and repositioning sagging tissues, Smooth Threads are designed to improve skin texture and firmness by encouraging collagen growth, reducing fine lines, and enhancing the skin’s overall elasticity and strength. This treatment is an excellent choice for those who wish to improve their skin’s quality and firmness with a more subtle, natural-looking approach.

How Do Smooth Threads Work?

Smooth Threads are made from PDO, a biocompatible material that safely dissolves in the body over time. Once inserted just beneath the skin, the threads trigger a healing response, prompting the skin to produce collagen around each thread. As the body naturally absorbs the threads, the newly generated collagen remains, giving your skin a firmer, smoother, and more youthful appearance. Smooth Threads are particularly effective for delicate areas, such as around the eyes, mouth, and cheeks, where collagen loss and fine lines often first appear.

What Are the Benefits of Smooth Threads?

Stimulated Collagen Production: By encouraging your skin to produce more collagen, Smooth Threads create lasting improvements in skin firmness and texture.
Natural-Looking Results: Smooth Threads do not alter your facial structure; instead, they work with your body’s natural processes to improve the skin from within.
Minimal Downtime: This quick, in-office procedure requires minimal recovery time, making it ideal for those with busy schedules.
Versatility: Smooth Threads can be applied to various areas of the face and neck, including the forehead, under-eye area, nasolabial folds, and around the mouth.

Am I a Good Candidate for Smooth Threads?

Smooth Threads are an excellent option for individuals looking to improve early signs of aging, such as:

Fine lines
Mild skin laxity
A loss of elasticity

Ideal candidates are generally in good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the subtle and natural outcomes that Smooth Threads provide.

Consultation at Fechner MD

During your private consultation at Fechner MD, our Nurse Injectors and Medical Aestheticians will take the time to understand your concerns and evaluate your skin. We’ll discuss your desired outcomes, explain the Smooth Threads process, and help you determine if this treatment is the best choice for achieving your goals.

What Happens During the Smooth Threads Procedure

To begin, our skilled providers will carefully mark the targeted areas on your face or neck, ensuring precision and balance. After applying a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort, the threads are inserted just below the skin’s surface using a fine needle.

This minimally invasive process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treated areas. The threads are strategically placed to encourage collagen production, gradually forming and smoothing the skin over the following weeks.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from a Smooth Threads treatment is minimal, with most patients resuming their daily activities immediately. You may experience slight swelling or redness at the insertion points, but these effects generally subside within a few days. As collagen production continues, your skin becomes firmer and smoother over time, with the full benefits visible within two to three months. Results from Smooth Threads can last up to a year or more, especially when combined with a tailored skincare regimen.
