Thread lifting in Seattle at Well Medical Arts.

A Thread Lift sometimes referred to as a “lunchtime lift,” uses absorbable, barbed sutures to offer a tighter, more youthful aesthetic appearance to the face.

Dominique demonstrates a Thread Lifting Treatment at Well Medical Arts in Seattle. Using the PDO threads for the Thread lift procedure we can stimulate collagen production, lift the angles of the face and create a more youthful “V” shape. The Thread Lift produces a firmer, tighter and more elastic skin with fewer and smoothed out fine lines and wrinkles. Learn more about Thread Lifting Here: Thread Lifting

THREAD LIFTING VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

0:00:04.740,0:00:09.930
hi my name is Dominique wall from wall

0:00:07.380,0:00:13.080
medical arts and today we get to teach

0:00:09.930,0:00:15.070
you about and demonstrate how did you

0:00:13.080,0:00:18.970
find the thread call

0:00:15.070,0:00:20.980
also known as thread lifting so I’m

0:00:18.970,0:00:25.029
going to be using a product called Nova

0:00:20.980,0:00:26.590
threads today they are FDA approved and

0:00:25.029,0:00:29.770
what they are is they are made out of

0:00:26.590,0:00:32.500
PPO which is dissolvable suture material

0:00:29.770,0:00:34.960
so we insert that thread with a needle

0:00:32.500,0:00:37.989
and then pull the needle out and the

0:00:34.960,0:00:40.480
thread we means and where we leave the

0:00:37.989,0:00:43.300
threads the body goes and builds

0:00:40.480,0:00:46.440
collagen the purpose is called collagen

0:00:43.300,0:00:48.730
induction therapy now I’m Kerry

0:00:46.440,0:00:51.489
beautiful she doesn’t look like she

0:00:48.730,0:00:53.710
needs anything because we’ve been taking

0:00:51.489,0:00:55.450
great care of her and you got doing

0:00:53.710,0:00:58.120
everything you need to make sure she

0:00:55.450,0:01:00.129
doesn’t look like she has any work done

0:00:58.120,0:01:03.730
or look like she needs anything

0:01:00.129,0:01:08.140
so what Kerry already has is meet Botox

0:01:03.730,0:01:11.440
her and then we also have done dermal

0:01:08.140,0:01:15.190
filler to her upper face to keep her

0:01:11.440,0:01:17.979
lower face lifted now to me as she’s

0:01:15.190,0:01:19.750
aging and the front of the face

0:01:17.979,0:01:23.020
carried these beautiful cheeks are

0:01:19.750,0:01:26.140
natural has naturally heavy large cheeks

0:01:23.020,0:01:28.030
and as she ages turned to slightly this

0:01:26.140,0:01:30.640
way they’re starting to calm down

0:01:28.030,0:01:31.760
and forward a little bit so they keep

0:01:30.640,0:01:35.390
her beautiful

0:01:31.760,0:01:38.540
lifted we have filler back here now we

0:01:35.390,0:01:41.000
want to keep collagen building in the

0:01:38.540,0:01:43.580
lower face as well we don’t want the

0:01:41.000,0:01:46.490
weight of fillers in the lower face so

0:01:43.580,0:01:49.310
this is a perfect place to be using any

0:01:46.490,0:01:53.000
sort of collagen induction therapy such

0:01:49.310,0:01:54.200
as Ultherapy or the thread lifting so

0:01:53.000,0:01:55.970
what I’m going to do is I’m going to be

0:01:54.200,0:01:58.340
demonstrating with that thread lifting

0:01:55.970,0:02:01.040
we’re gonna get her cleaned off and then

0:01:58.340,0:02:03.200
we’re going to be using small threads

0:02:01.040,0:02:06.229
and I’m going to be pulling all back

0:02:03.200,0:02:08.510
this way with the small threads and then

0:02:06.229,0:02:12.410
lifting up this way with the small

0:02:08.510,0:02:15.170
threads here’s the thread with the

0:02:12.410,0:02:18.200
needle they are very easy to place for

0:02:15.170,0:02:20.990
myself and for the patient to receive we

0:02:18.200,0:02:24.890
go down a lot but just a little bit of

0:02:20.990,0:02:28.310
torque on the skin and one two boom tiny

0:02:24.890,0:02:32.709
poke and then right under the surface of

0:02:28.310,0:02:32.709
the dermis and give a little twist

0:02:34.820,0:02:42.560
[Applause]

0:02:37.240,0:02:45.380
second one one to Damon Pope

0:02:42.560,0:02:50.170
[Applause]

0:02:45.380,0:02:54.770
and twist fold them and one two three

0:02:50.170,0:02:57.740
pull out and the threat remains no

0:02:54.770,0:03:02.270
bleeding no insertion site bumps it’s

0:02:57.740,0:03:04.780
very simple okay we’re almost done with

0:03:02.270,0:03:04.780
this side

0:03:08.320,0:03:15.980
poke at first when you’re learning how

0:03:12.260,0:03:19.570
to go over corners you’ll learn how to

0:03:15.980,0:03:19.570
go with the curvature of the face

0:03:19.590,0:03:24.220
[Applause]

0:03:22.210,0:03:25.590
just follow the dermis

0:03:24.220,0:03:30.060
[Applause]

0:03:25.590,0:03:31.830
don’t walk give a little torque one two

0:03:30.060,0:03:35.209
[Music]

0:03:31.830,0:03:38.670
[Applause]

0:03:35.209,0:03:40.379
twins how do these feel zero to ten zero

0:03:38.670,0:03:44.459
still pain intensive worse in your life

0:03:40.379,0:03:46.500
oh one that’s great yeah yeah I found

0:03:44.459,0:03:50.939
that they really didn’t hurt me either

0:03:46.500,0:03:52.470
which I was surprised one two would

0:03:50.939,0:03:54.540
people say they don’t hurt you always

0:03:52.470,0:03:57.030
think oh I don’t believe you know I did

0:03:54.540,0:03:58.680
actually split face trial on myself my

0:03:57.030,0:04:00.360
half of my face was light I came down

0:03:58.680,0:04:01.829
half was not and it really wasn’t any

0:04:00.360,0:04:03.780
different the lighter to the not my

0:04:01.829,0:04:04.950
decide all right we’ve got one side done

0:04:03.780,0:04:08.370
looks great

0:04:04.950,0:04:11.310
okay so we have six threats going in

0:04:08.370,0:04:14.250
parallel to the jaw and I want you to

0:04:11.310,0:04:16.410
notice how it does look nice and

0:04:14.250,0:04:19.350
supported on one side and this is

0:04:16.410,0:04:22.910
actually her heavier side now we are

0:04:19.350,0:04:25.830
going to go in and put them

0:04:22.910,0:04:28.790
perpendicular to the jaw coming up this

0:04:25.830,0:04:36.640
way all right now we’re going to play

0:04:28.790,0:04:36.640
threats perpendicular one two tiny folk

0:04:41.660,0:04:47.630
these ones are a little longer and you

0:04:44.210,0:04:52.390
actually may feel there we go I can feel

0:04:47.630,0:04:52.390
the tip of that one there we go

0:04:57.840,0:05:04.610
you may feel these ones threading in

0:04:59.940,0:05:04.610
just a little bit more one two

0:05:15.070,0:05:24.280
almost there you’re doing great babe

0:05:18.480,0:05:26.220
good job beautiful it’s just a pressure

0:05:24.280,0:05:29.449
there’s no pain

0:05:26.220,0:05:29.449
[Music]

0:05:45.060,0:05:50.310
fantastic

0:05:47.550,0:05:53.430
so these are all perpendicularly lines

0:05:50.310,0:05:57.180
to the jaw coming up to about the

0:05:53.430,0:05:59.520
cheekbone providing support through here

0:05:57.180,0:06:01.500
you want them to be able to go in all

0:05:59.520,0:06:03.449
the way this one was hitting the

0:06:01.500,0:06:07.349
cheekbone is on all the way but they’re

0:06:03.449,0:06:10.080
nice and evenly spaced very easy to take

0:06:07.349,0:06:17.190
out let’s see if I can get them all at

0:06:10.080,0:06:20.090
once and one two wonderful it actually

0:06:17.190,0:06:22.570
feels good to kind of take a mount

0:06:20.090,0:06:24.220
fantastic

0:06:22.570,0:06:28.210
we’re going to be putting these threads

0:06:24.220,0:06:31.380
in parallel to her jawline you don’t go

0:06:28.210,0:06:31.380
on too

0:06:31.750,0:06:36.060

0:06:55.590,0:07:05.270
[Applause]

0:06:57.560,0:07:09.260
twist and then pressure and 1/2 needles

0:07:05.270,0:07:11.180
come up thread stay in and it’s very

0:07:09.260,0:07:15.620
infrequently that a little point

0:07:11.180,0:07:17.120
globally not often usually just a couple

0:07:15.620,0:07:29.600
of points on the whole face

0:07:17.120,0:07:29.600

done now we’re and we’ve gone in

0:08:03.310,0:08:09.010
and we put the threads parallel to her

0:08:06.250,0:08:12.669
jaw and now we’re going to go in and put

0:08:09.010,0:08:16.319
them in perpendicular for support all on

0:08:12.669,0:08:19.039
the lower face ready

0:08:16.319,0:08:19.039
