Follow-up of my nasolabial PDO threads.

I've also got a bunch under the eyes to act as support, those might've contributed too.
Have you posted after results anywhere?

I have good under-eye support naturally so you can't really tell.

I also just did this to flatten the bit of pudge above the fold, with PCL straight threads.

my head is giantic, I'm 31, virtually everyone has them to some extend at my age.

aren’t pcl the ones that take a really long time to dissolve? have you gotten confident enough to go for them?

I only use PCL now, I've done more threads than most cosmetic specialists at this point.

Do you think even though your results wouldn't show on camera you experienced enough of a benefit that someone with worse under eye support/volume than you would have significant improvements?

here's an update, I added more threads to it so I'll specify that below, but as you can see they're still gone.

anyway, I wasn't satisfied with the initial result, it just wasn't tight enough, so I've been dumping more threads in this area every now and then, the kind I used for this are 25mm/30G superscrew PCL, the basic idea is to do a session, wait a few weeks for the results, and then do more if it isn't enough, the threads are basically slathered on top of each-other.

I put them in a pyramid fashion in that depression next to the nose from the philtrum up.

on top of that I've added a bunch on the zygomaticomaxillary complex like this, that sort of help lift the mid-face.

this is the design I used on myself, the horizontal part is screw, the vertical part is straight.
But what about the pain when you put thin inside???? How do you get rid of that

I've seen them being used on the under-eyes with success before.

doesn't hurt much unless you put them in the lips.

any amount of volume around the under-eyes or cheekbones provides some lift.

they're just support without adding volume.

I've posted that.
What effect would the vertical straights have on their own if placed there?
 
i wanna do this for my undereye but i have 0 fat there

i touch my nasojugal groove and there is ABSOLUTELY 0 fat there only skin and bone i feel

and right on top of it + above it the skin pigment is darker - from a lack of circulation / collagen ?

should I try retinol first to see if the pigment improves

i dont even know how i'd inject these needles in that region if ur supposed to go into the subcutaneous fat layer

i would ascend so hard

they are quite hard to do in areas with little fat but most of the face is relatively flat and even, I was testing a bunch in my leg before I did them on my face and I fucked up the majority of them, but despite that I hardly ever messed any in the face up.

u said straight mono threads would solve this

which is basically my situation

but wouldnt this pattern be better with screws?

everything is better with screws to be honest, the only reason to use straight threads is when you're afraid of adding too much volume, but threads really don't add that much from a single session so it's not like it's hard to control.

Your folds weren’t even prominent in the first place.

But since you’re autistic just like me and hate nasolabiol folds it was worth it at the end.
they were worse than you think.

here's from an old video (I had to resize it)

They look brutal in this picture, glad you fixed them. You look much better now.

Your face also looked bloated here, was it just fatloss to get rid of it?

my fat distribution seems to have changed over the years on top of losing weight, it doesn't really go to my face that badly anymore.

the fat dissolver also worked well for tightening that area, I also performed a subcision.

where did you perform the subcision?

I also want to pin aqualyx in my groove to get rid of the fat there and flatten it out, but I want to wait until i’m lean (10%). I coped for way too long now and i’ve still never been lean in my life.

in the piriform fossa, I just used a 25g needle, wasn't that painful.

I've been researching PDO threads and the only thing making me hesitant is the talk of scar tissue build-up. Do you have any thoughts or concerns about this?

it only matters for facelift and a good facelift surgeon can remove the scar tissue easily

Yes, but if someone starts doing these threads relatively young and does it for years and years, won't the scar tissue increasingly build up?

ebay, ace threads.

scar tissue is made from collagen, that's the entire point of doing them.

it's just a slight inconvenience for them to work around it if it has any impact at all but it's not like they don't get paid enough, and it should only be an issue for deeper plane lifts.

there's not much to write about you just stick in a needle underneath a bump or depression, move it back and forth while adjusting the angle sideways (both sides) if it's a bump after you've wiggled it around enough you should leverage it with your fingers so that the insertion doesn't tear and try to push it sideways through the tunnels you've created underneath the bump, you can feel/hear a pop when it happens.

there's not much difference between brands, I wouldn't be surprised if they all came from the same factory in korea.

only reason I use ace threads is because they're the only ones that have superscrews.

I disagree. 2 things are going on here. Collagen stimulation from little injuries to the skin. Scar tissue formation which also contains new collagen, but it's debatable how good it is.

I feel I've made a good point here that others need to be wary of. Yes you get a collagen boost and improved soft tissue redistribution. But it does come at a cost of increasing amounts of scar tissue over time.

What I'd like to understand is, if someone does this for years are they going to end up with an insane amount of scar tissue?

I'd like to stress I'm not writing this as an attack - I was potentially interested in using these PDO threads and I'm trying to understand the risks and drawbacks.

the collagen that's formed around threads tends to be a whole lot more structured than regular scar tissue which is kind of all over the place so it's not a significant issue.


it also doesn't really 'build up' unless you purposely do that, it goes away entirely after a few years of discontinuation.
