Anatomical layer analysis for safe thread insertion using micro-CT and ultrasonography: enhancing precision in facial thread-lifting procedures

Key Points

• Thread insertion into the superficial layer of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system yields favorable outcomes.
• Minimizing complications is a key advantage of this anatomical approach during thread-lifting procedures.
• Assessment utilized micro-CT and ultrasonography to guide the thread insertion process.
• Findings suggest enhanced precision could lead to safer, more effective facial lift treatments.
