Objectives: Aim: The aim of this presentation is to look into the thread lift techniques and assess that are two different cones competing with each other or are they actually complementing each other.
Materials / method: Methods & Material: In every patient who needed thread lift a combination of both cones and cogs were used. The cones were placed in the subcutaneous layer, while the cogs were placed just under dermis, in the upper layer of subcutaneous.
To improve the results a third loop suture capturing the platysma around the jawline was also introduce. This could be like a multi-plane thread.
Results: Results: The author, believes that the results will be much better and would last longer. He has been using this now for over 2 years now, and the results seems to be much better than his previous experiences.
Conclusion: Discussion: In last few years thread lift has gain a lot of popularity with different types in the market. The concept of using threads are that it will pull either the fat, if cones are used, and this will pull along the skin which will re-drape itself, or it will pull on the skin(in case of cogs) and the fat will be pulled along with it. In last two to three years lot of debates have been going on between the two types of threads in all forums including IMCAS. The author does not find any conflicts between the two types of threads rather finds a positive effect if done together, to get a b
