Barbed suture lifting is a minimally invasive surgical technique for facial rejuvenation. This study examined the efficacy and associated risks with this procedure, using a new synthetic, monofilament suspension thread named "Happy Lift™ Revitalizing" (Promoitalia International S.r.l, Naples, Italy).
All the patients had average aging signs and required a lifting of modest degree. A total of 37 thread lifts were performed over a 24-month period.
In the majority of patients (89%), the results obtained were considered satisfactory. The incidence of complications was low. Only 6% of the patients had slight post-operation asymmetry that was easily corrected. Minor complications experienced by patients included small ecchymosis (62%), mild erythema (40%), small hemorrhage (25%), mild transitory esthesia (6%) and mild post-operation tumefaction (40%). Histopathological and ecographic analyses were performed on the treated skin of selected patients, demonstrating that the lifting effect is guaranteed and fortified by the cutaneous reaction that appears along the length of the thread.
Thread lift with "Happy Lift™ Revitalizing" is a safe procedure associated with minor complications, when performed on cohorts of patients requiring a facial lifting of modest degree.
带刺缝线提升术是一种微创的面部年轻化手术技术。本研究使用一种名为“Happy Lift™ Revitalizing”(意大利那不勒斯的 Promoitalia International S.r.l. 公司生产的新型合成单丝悬吊线)的新型合成单丝悬吊线,评估了该手术的疗效和相关风险。
所有患者均有平均老化迹象,需要进行适度的提升。在 24 个月的时间里,共进行了 37 例线提升。
在大多数患者(89%)中,获得的结果被认为是令人满意的。并发症的发生率较低。只有 6%的患者术后出现轻微的不对称,很容易纠正。患者经历的轻微并发症包括小瘀斑(62%)、轻度红斑(40%)、小出血(25%)、轻度短暂性感觉异常(6%)和轻度术后肿胀(40%)。对选定患者的治疗皮肤进行了组织病理学和超声分析,结果表明,随着线的长度出现皮肤反应,提升效果得到保证和加强。
当对需要适度面部提升的患者群体进行“Happy Lift™ Revitalizing”线提升时,该手术是一种安全的程序,相关并发症较少。
