Facial reinforcement

The latest cosmetic technique, the goal of which is to restore tissue elasticity and a youthful appearance, is called facial skin reinforcement. The procedure includes the subcutaneous injection of specific substances, such as mesothreads or hyaluronic acid, to form a supporting skeleton. These approaches not only improve facial contours, but also stimulate collagen production, leading to improved skin texture and reduced wrinkles.

Scientific studies demonstrate that strengthening with threads and hyaluronic acid significantly increases skin tone and slows down aging. The use of mesothreads creates a collagen base that maintains the condition of the skin for a year after the procedure. Hyaluronic acid, also called the “queen of youth”, increases the level of hydration and elasticity of the skin, which is especially important when it is aging.

What is reinforcement?

The procedure involves cosmetic manipulations, the purpose of which is to restore elasticity and youth to the skin. Facial reinforcement is based on the subcutaneous injection of mesothreads or fillers, which create a supporting frame and stimulate collagen production.

The essence of the facial reinforcement procedure is injections performed under local anesthesia to reduce pain. Threads or gels are introduced to a depth of approximately 5 mm, reaching the dermis. In response, the body initiates regeneration by forming collagen structures around the injected material. This not only supports the skin but also improves its texture and firmness.

What is reinforcement?

Types of reinforcement

There are four common types of facial reinforcement, which differ in the materials used and the procedure used.

Thread reinforcement of the face

The technique in which special fibers are introduced under the skin is called facial thread reinforcement. Manipulation helps strengthen the skin, making it more elastic and youthful. The threads stimulate the production of collagen (the protein responsible for the elasticity of the skin), which leads to an improvement in the appearance of the tissue. After the threads are inserted, the body begins an active repair process, creating collagen fibers that support the skin in the desired position.

Stages of thread reinforcement of the face:

  • Discussion of the procedure with a cosmetologist
  • Selection of threads depending on skin condition and desired results
  • Treating the skin with an antiseptic to prevent infection
  • Inserting threads through a thin needle

The procedure is suitable for people who show signs of aging, such as sagging skin and wrinkles. The technique is suitable for both young and more mature patients who want to improve facial contours without surgery.

Facial reinforcement with fillers

The procedure, during which a gel based on hyaluronic acid is injected under the skin, is called facial reinforcement with fillers. Hyaluronic acid attracts water, which helps hydrate the skin and increase its elasticity. The introduction of fillers gives a lifting effect, fills wrinkles and makes the skin instantly younger and smoother.

Stages of strengthening facial skin with fillers:

  • Consultation with a cosmetologist to assess skin condition
  • Choosing the right filler depending on your needs
  • Disinfection of the area of ​​intended injection
  • Introduction of filler through a thin needle or a special tube (cannula)

Fillers are suitable for people who are noticing early signs of aging or loss of volume in the cheeks and lips.

Bio-reinforcement of the face

A cosmetic procedure that involves the use of hyaluronic acid to improve skin elasticity and create internal support is called facial bioreinforcement. By attracting moisture and stimulating cell renewal, the technique helps moisturize the skin and help it stay youthful. A long-term effect is achieved by stimulating the production of collagen, a protein responsible for skin elasticity.

Stages of facial bioreinforcement:

  • Consultation with a cosmetologist
  • Assessing skin condition and choosing the right product
  • Treating the skin with an antiseptic for cleaning
  • Introduction of the drug into the skin according to a special scheme

Bio-reinforcement is suitable for those who are starting to notice signs of aging or want to improve the quality of their skin. The procedure is recommended for people aged 30-35 to maintain youthful skin.

Reinforcement of the face with mesothreads

There is also a method in which special threads with micro-notches are introduced under the skin, creating a framework for tightening the skin. Reinforcing the face with mesothreads helps tighten the skin and stimulates its renewal. Threads with micro-notches are introduced to a shallow depth, which provides a visible lifting effect immediately after the procedure.

Stages of face reinforcement with mesothreads:

  • Consultation with a cosmetologist
  • Selection of threads depending on the area that needs to be corrected
  • Skin disinfection
  • Inserting threads through a thin needle

Face reinforcement with mesothreads is recommended for people with mild signs of aging or those who want to improve the shape of their face without surgery. The procedure is often used to eliminate ptosis (sagging tissue) and generally improve the condition of the skin.

General information

Indications for facial reinforcement

Facial reinforcement with threads or hyaluronic acid is recommended for the following symptoms:

  • Sagging skin. With age, the skin loses elasticity, causing the cheeks and chin to sag. Strengthening returns the skin to its natural contours.
  • Deep wrinkles. The procedure effectively eliminates wrinkles and folds, giving the skin a smooth and youthful appearance.
  • Loss of volume. Over time, the face loses volume, especially in the cheeks and lips. The technique solves this problem.
  • Skin hydration. The use of hyaluronic acid in strengthening procedures promotes intensive hydration and improves the condition of the skin.

Strengthening is suitable for both young people and older patients.

Contraindications

Main restrictions for the facial reinforcement procedure:

  • Oncological diseases. The procedures are not recommended for patients with cancer as they may worsen the condition.
  • Inflammatory processes. The presence of inflammation or infections in the injection area is a contraindication.
  • Blood clotting problems. Patients with such problems are at risk of bleeding and other complications.
  • Exacerbation of chronic diseases. May negatively affect the result of the procedure.

Strengthening is also not recommended for pregnant and lactating women.

Stages of the reinforcement procedure

The first step is a consultation with a cosmetologist. The doctor examines the skin, assesses its condition and chooses a strengthening method: threads or fillers. It is important to discuss all potential outcomes and expectations.

Next follows the preparation of the facial skin, including its cleaning and antiseptic treatment. This prevents infection and ensures good fusion of the materials with the skin.

Carrying out the procedure:

  • Anesthesia. Local anesthesia is used to reduce pain
  • Injections. Materials - threads or fillers - are introduced through a thin needle or cannula. The threads are placed in the dermis according to plan, forming the skeleton
  • Massage. The doctor may gently massage the area to ensure even distribution of fillers or proper placement of threads
  • Completing the procedure. Re-treating the skin with an antiseptic and applying a soothing cream

The procedure takes from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on its complexity and volume.

Recommendations after the procedure:

  • Abstain from physical activity for 24-48 hours
  • Do not apply cosmetics to treated areas for the first 24 hours
  • Avoid direct sunlight and baths during the first week after correction

If you follow your doctor's recommendations, recovery after the procedure takes only a few days.

Effect after facial reinforcement

The first effects are noticeable immediately after the procedure. The skin of the face becomes thinner and more elastic. For example, when using threads, patients notice an immediate improvement in the shape of the face and a decrease in the depth of wrinkles around the mouth.

Long-term results:

  • The effect of strengthening lasts from six months to two years
  • Fillers such as hyaluronic acid hydrate and add volume, leaving skin smoother and fresher
  • The threads gradually dissolve, leaving behind a collagen skeleton that maintains skin tone

Research confirms that strengthening not only improves the appearance of the skin, but also promotes its recovery. For example, the use of mesothreads stimulates blood microcirculation and cell metabolism, which leads to rejuvenation.

Many patients note a significant improvement in appearance after strengthening. One of the clients noted, “After the peptide facial reinforcement procedure, I felt 10 years younger. My face became more defined and my wrinkles were almost gone.”

To maintain results, it is recommended to undergo repeated procedures every 6-12 months.
