Dynamic and static wrinkles and lines treatments have always been one of biggest challenges in aesthetic medicine because of poor, temporary and short term of results. It seems filling threads will be a great alternative therapy for these but the problem is doctors have not enough knowledge, experience and skill about this very new and progressive procedure. We have been working on these threads in Iran over 4 years and at this period of time we go through this procedure based on survey on hundreds of our patients in Iran and recently in Turkey. Wrinkles like crow’s feet make the person many years older meanwhile, satisfaction rate of our patients was over 90%, they look many years younger. These threads are absorbable, made of PDO (Polydiaxanone) that remains 3-6 months and stimulate tissue reaction. Effects will be remain 1-2 years .There are new generations of threads that generally longer lasting than PDO called PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid) that remains 6-9 months and PCL (polycaprolactone) that wonderfully remaines 2 years. With this very long lasting effect of PCL it is a big revolution in rejuvenation methods.
Conclusion & Significance: Filling threads are extraordinary and astonishing alternative therapy for wrinkles and lines of the skin but it needs experienced and skilled doctor, complications are very few and results are long lasting, miraculous and satisfying.
