It&#8217;s common to feel pressure or slight discomfort during insertion and a little tightness afterward. <\/li>\n<li><strong> When will I see the result?<\/strong><br>There is an immediate lifting effect due to the mechanical traction. In the following weeks, the skin&#8217;s texture and firmness improve thanks to collagen biostimulation. <\/li>\n<li><strong> Are the threads noticeable to the touch or to the eye?<\/strong><br>When correctly positioned and the appropriate thread type is selected, they should not look or feel like stiff cords.<\/li>\n<li><strong> What is the price of thread lifts for the face?<\/strong><br>The question \u201cwhat is the price of thread lifts?\u201d is very common when we receive inquiries, but the answer at Benavides Aesthetic Medicine will always be: it depends on your case.

Facial aging is not just about \u201cexcess skin.\u201d The following factors are involved: Loss of collagen and elastin: our skin becomes thinner and less elastic.

That&#8217;s why, after a certain age, they start to become noticeable: Prominent nasolabial folds. Puppet lines around the mouth. Sagging cheeks and flat cheekbones.
