Thread lifts are minimally invasive procedures that use dissolvable sutures to lift and tighten the skin. Unlike a traditional facelift, this procedure requires no cuts or incisions, only small punctures where the threads are inserted using needles. It’s a quick procedure, often completed within an hour, and the results can last anywhere from one to three years, depending on the type of threads used and individual patient factors.
Health Canada and PLLA Threads
Health Canada’s stance on thread lifts emphasizes the safety and effectiveness of PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) threads, which are currently the only type of thread lift product approved by this national regulatory body. PLLA threads are known for their biocompatibility and ability to stimulate collagen production over time, which contributes to the skin’s natural rejuvenation process.
For detailed guidelines and regulations, please refer to Health Canada’s official site or visit the specific page regarding medical device regulations, which provides comprehensive information on the approval and use of PLLA threads in cosmetic treatments.
Why Choose PLLA Threads?
PLLA threads offer several advantages:
- Biocompatibility and Safety: PLLA is a synthetic substance known to be safe and gradually breaks down in the body.
- Collagen Stimulation: Over time, PLLA threads help stimulate the production of collagen, which is vital for maintaining youthful and elastic skin.
