NovaThreads, FDA-approved PDO absorbable sutures, are an exciting new addition to the aesthetic tool box in that they actually lift, tighten and smooth the soft tissues of the face and neck with a basic, in-office session causing little to no downtime and with excellent results, according to Suzanne Pear, RN, Ph.D., a licensed esthetician at Pampered Skin Studio. To make this affordable treatment even more attractive, Pear is offering a 20 percent discount to all Natural Awakenings readers during 2017.

“Although advances in injectable fillers such as Juvederm and neuromodulators like Botox have been effective for treating different aesthetic indications, many practitioners and clients will agree that there continues to be an unmet need in minimally invasive aesthetics for an actual ‘lift’ of the skin and soft tissues in different areas—particularly the lower face and neck,” explains Pear. NovaThreads are dissolvable threads that are placed under the skin in different areas to achieve lifting of the cheeks, the jowls and the neck bands, as well as other areas of the face and body.

The procedure is performed in the office and is comfortable and safe for patients. It achieves fast results that last from 9 to 15 months, depending on how many threads are placed at the session and the level of skin laxity that the patient has. The cost of the treatment varies by area, but is similar to the price of fillers.
