Definisse Italian Thread Lift is a premium level thread lifting procedure that is designed to lift and tighten the face. Thread lifting is a well-known beauty trend that has been around for a long time, but most threads used are from Korea. Today, we would like to introduce a new innovation for lifting and tightening the face without the need for surgery. The procedure is minimally invasive, provides immediate results, and causes minimal discomfort.

“Thread Lift” is a technique that uses dissolvable threads naturally absorbed by the body to lift and tighten the skin of the face. The small threads are designed to anchor to the underlying facial structure at strategic points to lift and tighten the skin in the desired areas. The threads stimulate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production, resulting in long-lasting firmness and tightening of the skin after the procedure.

Definisse Italian threads come in 2 sizes: 12 cm and 23 cm. Their usage is divided according to the area of thread treatment as follows:

• The 12 cm thread size is suitable for facial thread lifting, such as brow lifting, temple lifting, lifting and tightening of the jawline, lifting the cheeks, and the nasolabial folds.
• The 23 cm thread size is suitable for thread lifting in the neck and facial contours.

Definisse Double Needle Threads from Italy use double-sided sharp needles with a size of 21 G, and the number of threads required depends largely on the laxity of each individual’s skin. However, in general, only one thread per side is used to start with, or very few compared to other types of thread lifting procedures.

It is important to note that the use of Double Need Threads is subject to the assessment of our experienced medical professionals who have more than 20 years of experience in facial design and dealing with individual differences in facial structure.

• Italian threads have a double-headed arrow shape that runs towards each other, with excellent adhesion properties that allow the results to lift and tighten the face for up to 15 months.
• The Italian thread is made from a material that has stronger tensile strength and greater flexibility than other types of threads used for facial lifting. It also has the natural property of self-dissolving, meaning it can completely dissolve on its own within a period of just 6-8 months.

When we ask about thread lifting in the market, we often come across the term “MINT” which is not related to the mint scent we usually know. The abbreviation “MINT” stands for Minimal Invasive Non Surgical Thread, which means a non-surgical face-lifting procedure using thread lifting. MINT is the brand name of PDO thread material imported from Korea. It can also be naturally dissolved and has been approved by the Thai FDA just like Definisse, an Italian thread brand.

The difference depends on the usage of PDO threads, which have more delicate properties than Italian (Definisse) threads and are not as flexible. If the area to be treated has a lot of fat or is highly relaxed, PDO threads may not be suitable because they require relatively high pulling force.

However, regardless of the type of thread lifting, it should be recommended by a specialized physician with experience in thread lifting and certified by the Medical Council for the safety of the patient themselves.

• For thread lifting, it is recommended to seek a doctor who specializes in thread lifting and facial design expertise. This can help reduce the risk of misplaced threads due to incorrect muscle pulling on the face.
• Choosing a high-quality thread that is suitable for each individual’s specific problems and facial structure is crucial. It is important to seek a doctor with extensive experience in thread lifting to reduce the risk of poor quality, infection, and suboptimal results.
