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

KYKyu-Ho YiJLJi‐Hyun LeeJLJi-Hyun Lee

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.

Abstract

This study demonstrated that thread insertion into the superficial layer of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system is anatomically favorable approach for lifting lateral facial tissues. This layer offers the potential for achieving feasible results while minimizing iatrogenic complications in thread-lifting procedures.
